*hughughughughughug* I'm so happy to see you. Hope you're doing all right! *hug*
Yeah, I'm coming pretty close to blacking it out. Since just this last September (in this order, I think): blood work at lab, CT scan, GI doctor's office, endoscopy, stomach emptying radiation scan, HIDA scan, stool samples at lab, colonoscopy, ultrasound, general doctor's office, gynacologist's office, X-rays (two separate series), ortho's office, second round of blood work
Not to mention weekly trips to the allergist or the allergy-related visit to my general doctor.
And today I get surgeon's office while tomorrow is MRI! Next week is a second opinion GI. I also get to fill in the "manually photocopies medical records to hand to the doctors in person because my GI's office staff is incompetent" box. And I get to fill in the "drive around half the town trying to find the medical library where my X-Ray results were burned to CD" and the "my GI wants to fix the IBS problems not the horrible pains in my stomach problems and keeps recommending I eat foods that make the pain worse" and the "been on variation of BRAT diet for more than 6 months" boxes! LOL Maybe, at this point, I should make my own bingo card? Hmmm.
So, no, it's not everything, but I'd certainly have a bingo by now if I were playing! LOL
