Bad Health Day Yesterday/today

I know I rant about this stuff here a lot, but I havent been in this much pain in a while, if ever. i dont know what happened. I didnt get contaminated somehow because the extreme diarrhea started in the morning. even when I wasnt eating/drinking I was emptying. And then I tried to eat again and some stayed in me but on my walk to school yesterday I almost passed out twice (from the dizziness/nausea). Then at school it wasnt SO bad, I sat in a dumb chair most of the day so that was uncumfy. Then towards the end of my classes already I had diarrhea again--with blood. Then it appeared like I was starting my time of the month again (much later during classes, i'm SURE the 2 arent connected). But there wasnt much there.

As the night progress i got WORSE. The pains were (and still are) too much to handle. I've never felt my right side throbbing me this bad. And I cant say its from time of the month, if i get cramps from those its right across the whole stomach, not just my left side.

In the middle of the night I was tempted to wake up my landlord or the other lady that lives here to take me to the hospital, but i didnt--instead I tried to sleep. I finally passed out around 5:30, woke up 12:30 (but a ton of tossing and turning in between).

Today like I said, I'm not any better. I still have that THROBBING pain. And yet again, theres more blood when I go pee than there is on the pad. And its VERY painful to pee today...

I'm gonna call mom right away and see if dad works any late shifts this week and see if she can sneak me in to the docs SOON :blink:

*sigh* how I wish one of these towns had a walk-in clinic :(

Oh Lisa.. You poor thing. It sounds like a bladder infection. Have they checked your kidneys. If I remember right you had an infection a few months ago.

Definitely go to the doctor.

Thanks hun! :) I'm still not feeling any better--still cant sleep, still cant barely eat, still in awful pain. So tomorrow will have to do I guess :blink: As long as i get something for the pain, it dont even matter to me already what they give me or what testing they do. Because its totally making school impossible to focus... :unsure:

I PROMISE I will post in the morning/afternoon after my appointment to see if it was a waste of time or not..hope for me it wont be!!

How much longer until your appointment at Foothills? Couple weeks? I hope they can help you figure it out.

No actually another 46 days til Foothills. The guy today was just useless. He was some family doc i never saw before and he gave me a couple prescriptions of things I've had before and said "not much this Canora doctor can do" (which really is true if you think about it). And that was it. And he was sympathetic, he said "thats gotta be rough for you" -- at least he dont think i'm making it up! Blah....

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.
