I went to the gastroenterologist today to find out if I have gall stones or not. He ordered blood work, scheduled an ultrasound, and gave me some powdery stuff to drink each day. He wants to check everything out. He told me to stay away from fatty foods and try not to take anything with aspirin in it (which is all my pills for knee pain). He said if my ultrasound does show gall stones, then he'll schedule me for a surgical consult right away. Otherwise I go back to see him on January 21st.
Also, I spent all day yesterday cleaning my house top to bottom. Something a healthy 26 year old woman should be able to do. By the time I was done cleaning, both knees were throbbing and my hips were very tired. No more full house cleaning days for awhile.
Still awaiting the MRI results. I think the holiday messed things up for me. Hopefully I will hear something Monday after my ultrasound and blood work.
