just standard procedure to be sure I was still alive! She was very nice and talked to me for a few minutes. I asked her about the hernia and she said if it was bad enough to be causing this much pain than it would have showed up on the barium swallow or the cat scan. She said that a lot of people have them and don't even know it. I wonder if I am just hypersensitive to things like pain and changes in my body??? She said to call the crohns guy that referred me but that Dr Zonca, the one who did the endoscopy Friday didn't see anything to explain my pain or symptoms. I have already seen the crohns guy about it and he doesn't know either!
But I just want to scream IT REALY DOES HURT!!!! If it was depression, wouldn't it just be a general pain, this is a constant, sharp pain in a very specific spot that does not move. I get the feeling that the doctors think if I'm getting up and going to work everyday, that it can't be that bad. Since I'm overweight to begin with, the doctors don't take the weight loss seriously either. Twenty five pounds in a few months is a lot though considering I do nothing but go to work and lay on the couch. Aw well, at least they say I'm healthy!
