ok, maybe it was the mold. but i dont think so. i think my kidney stones are moving a bit and i think something isnt sitting right in me. i feel worse than i have in weeks.
but ill get through it.
in semi-related news, my mom told me last night that she has heard of 4 other people in our area, my age, who have either crohns or colitis. that brings the total of kids my age with digestive illnesses (ibs/colitis/crohns) in my neighborhood area (say, within 2 or 3 miles the way the crow flies) to 6 (that i know of). plus ian, who hasnt been fully diagnosed and grew up farther away.
perhaps im being paranoid, but it seems odd that a bunch of us at the same time get hit with this crap. i cant imagine what we were exposed to, but more and more im leaning that way.
oh, the other day on my dr visit i was told 1. that there was only about an 80% chance i was cured – the remaining 20 was in case i actually did have crohns. (i dont buy this, i have 0 signs. but stranger things have happened.) 2. that the pictures of my colon were not normal. (duh) more specifically, the pictures were only of the outside of my colon, not the inside. and that even removed from the body, it should be pink. instead on the outside my colon looked like raw beef. red and awful. so, yeah, i was a bit sick inside.
least i weigh over 140 now. 20 pounds gained in about 5 weeks. frightening almost.
