I kept this issue kinda quiet so don't be offended if you didn't know. I don't like to air my problems to everyone because a lot of people just don't care. BUT, this is my blog and I'll tell you all about it!

I had been having a lot of upset stomachs lately. I have been getting them a few times a day. I finally had enough and schedule an appointment with a GI doctor. Well, he was fabulous! He scheduled an endoscopy procedure to rule out any bacteria and hiatus hernias that may be contributing to my upset stomachs. 

I was kinda excited about this. I have never had anything done. ever. I really love being taken care of and they always take wonderful care of you when you are doing something like this.
I know. I'm messed up.



The time came and Matt drove me up to the clinic. I got all ready and they wheeled me away. The nurse told me he was going to spray me with this numbing spray. It was absolutely atrocious. They also had this music going on in the room lol. I was then told to go on my side and they were going to put the medicine to knock me out. I remember the burning and the room swirling a teeny bit. I say it worked in less than 10 seconds. 

Apparently I woke up and was able to choose apple juice out of a line up of drinks to drink. Matt came and  helped me to get dressed...I remember nothing.

I also told him I was upset because they didn't ask me to countdown. Seriously. I went on about it too. The nurse also was talking to me and I couldn't comprehend what she was saying. I'm pretty sure I asked her to repeat it and then asked Matt to seriously remember. 

The doc came in and I barely remember anything. I know that I really wanted to wear the socks...so I have hospital socks with me. 

I had to be wheeled out I was that "messed up" lol. 

Matt got me some type of ice cream thing from Sonic...and when we got home I passed out. 

That medicine was wonderful.

Thank you to those wonderful nurses who were incredibly nice. 
Thanks to my wonderful Doctor who is awesome
Thank you to my wonderful husband who was with me the whole time :) and helped me so much!
Thanks to my friends and family who checked up on me!



So above are 4 issues that I have. They all help in giving me the upset stomachs that I get multiple times a day. We got a biopsy on everything to rule out cancer and confirm what he saw. After we get the results I am going back in to determine a solution to this. As for right now, I need to take Prilosec OTC


I also have a Hiatus Hernia..yuck...luckily the rest of my esophagus was a ok.

I was so out of it, I heard him talk about Celiac Disease but he wasn't too sure. I'll find out June 11th or whatever when I go see him again. 


oh yeah. i got a new phone! Galaxy Note! It is awesome...and massive!
