Well, that was sort of lunch/dinner.

I went to the doc yesterday and she thinks I may have an ulcer .Hopefully it is just the virus and no physical damage has happened IF that is what is going on... That explains the pain when I eat.. and over the past week or so, the best thing i have been eating ( meaning it doesnt hurt) are super cold things like ice cream, icy water and smooth foods. >blaaaahhhh

I'm sorry to hear that. Is she putting you on any medication?

34/173.0/0

(I seem to be in a fairly steady state right now.)

right now just prevacid. Until the blood test results come back ( later today) or we do an MRI if the blood test is inconclusive.

Good luck. I hope they can get to the heart of the matter quickly.

Yikes. Well, if it is, I'm hoping it's the kind that can be treated with an antibiotic.
Not all that long ago, one of the main causes of ulcers was found to be a bacterium (starts with h, I forget), though not all ulcers.

Hope things resolve favorably soon, shewolf.

Good luck, wolfie...

I love February. February is when all the people who were crowding the weight line in the gym have given up. I had a nice workout last night. Curls, Pulldown, Chest press, Shoulder Press and only had to wait for the crunch machine. I increased my weightload on all of them. Oh, did the pressdown/pull up machine too. Hmmm. Muscle weighs more than fat. Mebbe why my glide path seems to be flattening with my stomach???

Another low calorie day; this is all a make up for the past couple of weeks, plus we have the gathering this weekend. You really aren't supposed to "bank" calories, and I don't intend to overeat, but I do expect that there may be hidden sauces that I can't account for this weekend.

Blood test says no ulcer. Yay!
But that does not explain the pain , which is going away, nor does it explain the extreme dizzy feelings..
I call her back today and see what the next plan of action is going to be.
Anemia test was normal.
b12 levels were a bit low , but nothing diet wont help.
So..we shall see .


b- steel cut oats with honey

l/d home made pizza. White flour dough, toppings- portabella mushrooms, red bell pepper, orange bell pepper, fresh ( cut right from the plant) Italian basil, garlic, bacon and provolone cheese.

It was lunch and dinner because I made it at 1:30 and ate half of it over the course of 2 hours. It was not big, about the size of a dinner plate. But I didnt need to eat again for the rest of the day. I just didnt feel hungry.
