Thanksgiving and Worries (TMI)
Happy Thanksgiving!
I had a lovely day with my family. Great food and great conversation, I am truly blessed to be surrounded by those I love.
My anxiety is okay on most days. I still have the pubic bone/sit bone pain, but that has been going on for almost a year with no explantation so I am not sure what is going on. I also have been having hemorrhoid problems at least I hope that's what it is. I have bum pain on most days that is like a pinching pain or sometimes a deep bruise. TMI but sometimes there are ridges/indentations in my poop. I worry that it might be the big C, of course.
Also my acid reflux is not getting better even with medicine the doctor gave me. Sometimes it feels like my food is getting stuck a bout midway down my esophagus. I have to take a drink of water to get it to go down. Not always but often enough it worries me. I have stopped drinking coffee and soda in order to try to stop my reflux but it always seems to happen no matter what I do. Most of the time it is silent reflux so it kind of sneaks up on me. It is making me nervous and I wonder if I should get another endoscope. It has been 2 1/2 years since my last one and it was awful but that was my own fault as I refused to be put under. I have a problem with being given a drug that makes you forget you were awake and what happened to you. Some people do fall asleep others don't but they don't remember. It's weird and I don't like it. But then again being awake is also very not good. It felt like I was being suffocated. I had some irritated spots but nothing to worry about. I was given a prescription and sent on my way. A month later I found out I was pregnant and stopped taking the medicine. Plus I have had reflux problems for awhile so now it is something I am worried about again.
I need to just contact my doctor and get some of these worries looked at rather then constintly thinking about them.
I hope all is going well for those on this site! I will pray for you.
