So yes, it has definitely been a while since I have last posted. Things are pretty much the same, except I have not PCSed to Fort Hood quite yet. Still at the good old Relaxin' Jackson. I hate it.
I've had more tests done, yet a conclusion on the diagnosis has not yet been reached. The theory at the moment, is that the anesthetic that I was given for my appendectomy, was uptaken by my gallbladder, and somehow in the mix, permanently damaged my GB. I was given a HIDA scan, a nuclear test to determine the function of the gallbladder. Normal ranges are from 35%-75%. Mine was performing at a whoping 95%. So, I have a hyperkinetic gallbladder. I'm sick of dealing with it, so I just want them to whip that b**** out and get it over with. I am waiting for another appointment with my GI doc and then hopefully, I will get a referral to talk to the general surgeon to see about taking this thing out.
On the better side, I just got home, on leave, for 2 weeks. I needed this break so bad, because Jackson is driving me absolutely insane!
I am home on 2 weeks of leave. It's been absolutely amazing to be home for a bit. But, on the other side of things, I am ready to get this thing figured out.
