This is Not. Getting. Better.

I can see I'm going to be up most of the night with this. Damnit.

This happened about a month ago. A loooooong slow gutache, occasionally sharp but mostly just draining. I feel somewhat nauseous. My dad said a hot water bottle would help, but it's only made it hurt more.

I'm gonna try some chamomile tea. Maybe heat on the inside will work.

Ow. Owowowowow.


ETA: It's a bit better now. Feels like the tea I didn't toss back up might have had some effect. I think I can sleep, though I expect to wake up in a couple of hours with my gut, much like Sam's, screaming Now, now, before it's too late!

I'm not looking forward to work tomorrow.

You may have diverticulitis. My mom had it and my brother has it too, and he's still young enough that it was quite a surprise that it showed up. It's hard to diagnose, but it worries me that you're not getting any relief and actually threw up the tea. Please see the doctor if you're not better soon.

Thanks for your concern, hon. I would be glad to see a doctor if that were a possibility. But seeing as I'm uninsured and have no money, that's not actually an option. So I just have to hope it's not something serious. :(

Oh, sweetie, I wish I could do more, but believe me I will say a prayer for you, and I'll send you healing energy along with it. It's so hard to not have enough money.
