I am somewhat stressed
I was sick with a sinus headache for about a month. I finally went to the Doctor and she noticed that I had not had a routine blood draw in a year. I have Diabetes, and some of the problems associated with that involve the organs of the body, they check those systems by drawing blood and running it through several checks. One of my Liver test came back high, so Dr. wanted me to follow up with an Ultra Sound. I have had those before and they have come back ok, so I was not worried that this would be any different. Well was I wrong. I got another call from the Dr. and she wanted me to come in first thing the next day to go over the tests. Why? I asked her. She said, "we'll discuss it tomorrow, I want to refer you to a couple of specialists", I worry all night, and make it to her office the next morning, I am brought in for another blood draw, and then sent back out to the waiting room, after 2 hours of waiting, I ask the receptionist when am I going to see the Dr., after a few more minutes, I am called back, handed a paper for two Dr referrals and given the results of the ultrasound, and told to call and make appointments with a Urologist, and a Gastro Dr. I spend the rest of the day, trying to do that. I miss the day at work, because I had to wait so long. Yesterday, I went to see the urologist, and he tells me not to worry, the condition I have has probably been going on for quite a while and it is not related to the diabetes, I have just one working Kidney. He thinks that I must have been born that way, but I have had ultrasounds before and nothing was mentioned about one Kidney doing the work of two, so I think that It was not that way from birth. I am relieved about that.
I still am waiting to see the Gastro Dr. My Liver is acting up and Family Dr. wants me to follow up to make sure everything is Ok. It is still 2 weeks before I can get into see him.
So now, I am planning to start Weight Watchers next week, got to get rid of this Weight. (a baby gift) Thanks Kids.
To add to that stress, I am at odds with someone. this person is upset with me and called and let me know how upset. Said some things that really hurt. I was thinking that I had done a kind thing, but this person did not feel the same way. It was just too much for my emotions to handle and I could not get the call out of my head. I cried all the way to work, and several times during the day, then on the way back home I called my Mom and I cried again. Mom made me feel better, and said she thought that I acted from my heart and that I did nothing wrong. This person is upset, and lashed out at me. I might feel the same way if I were in thier shoes. There will have to be some forgiving before I will be able to really move on. I am still very sad this person feels this way, but nothing I can do about it now. I am going to have to call on God's strength to really get thru this one. I am really sad this person chose to be this way but not suprised, because this person has let me know in the past when they were unhappy. Just don't think that I will be able to be close to this person again, once bitten.... you know.
