Just once, I’d like to go to the doctor and get an actual diagnosis. Seems every time I go in, I get a lot of tests and head shaking.
This past week’s tests include: CBC, Lipids, Liver Panel, Bilirubin, H Pylori Antibody, Gluten Allergy, Celiac Disease Panel, Complete Metabolic Panel, 12-lead EKG, Chest X-Ray. By the end of the week I suspect an upper GI and an ultrasound.
My doctor has ruled out: Pancreatitis, Gall Stones, and Ulcer. She now suspects one of three things: Cardiac event of some sort, Hiatal Hernia, Abdominal Aneurysm.
There are only six words scarier than “We are out of toilet paper,” and they are, “Ladies and Gentlemen, Vice President Palin.”
Seriously, why is it so bad to run
I’d like to get back on a regular schedule with The Jester Show, but for that I need guests. You in?
I’m going to seriously kill someone if they don’t stop calling me on my cell phone and my house phone and my work phone trying to sell me an extended warranty on my car. Seriously.
I bought Rock Band 2 this weekend. I haven’t played in about 6 hours, so I’m suffering severe withdrawal. Better do something about that.
What’s up with you all?
Nuthin’ – but thanks for asking!
I’d argue scarier words would be “After the death of President John McCain, Sarah Palin was sworn in as 45th President of The United States of America.”

what is up with me? just missing you and hating that you are having health issues. seriously scary shit there, jester.
hello haha narfs last blog post..Loven the Blogging, Haten the Enemy
I don’t know about you, but I can’t *wait* for Palin to be VP.
Oh wait – I *do* know about you.
Did you download that Stephen Colbert song? It’s free…

a “cardiac episode” sounds like “umm… we give up”

I suspect I have a hernia. Wouldn’t be the first time. Just the first time that I remember it. Other than working my fingers to the bone at the office, moderating my ass off at the horse racing sim where the jackasses are on a rampage, and trying to get stories done to submit to open calls… I haven’t been doing jack. I miss your show though. Well, I miss the sound of your laughter and I miss UMB telling me I’m a dirty girl in chat.

Abdominal aneurysm? Why are you not in the hospital then getting an damn ultrasound?
Tell Dr. Finn your symptoms. I’m good at diagnosing stuff.
Finns last blog post..Changing Of The Guard
I didn’t even know you could have an abdominal aneurysm.
I hope it’s nothing serious! …whatever it is. Oh and you should seriously stock up on TP. Sounds like there’s some paranoia tied to limited supplies of it in your house!
Colin B.s last blog post..the countdown to being homeless has commenced
I hope that whatever it is, they figure it out fast and fix you! Geez.
Seriously, your toilet paper freak out is the same as my coffee freak out. It can be midnight and I am already in my pajamas and I will run to find coffee for the morning.
Hillys last blog post..Here We Go Again…
Sorry you’re sick, dude. And yeah, Sarah Palin is kinda scary.
Karls last blog post..Barack Obama Stole My Car Keys
I completely understand the frustration of being ill and having doctors that can’t figure out what’s wrong. I went through that the second time I had cancer. I certainly hope that your doctor figures out what’s wrong so they can treat you PRONTO!
I’m with you on the “Palin” scariness.
I also totally FREAK when we are down to the last two rolls of toilet paper AND last roll of paper towels. I HATE to run out of paper towels.
Finally…I’d do your radio show, could be very interesting!
Doctors, while usually more educated than the population at large, are still human (mostly), so I suppose we should expect them to fail us now and then. I know they do me. I hope you get an answer soon. More specifically, a non-life-threatening answer.
As for your radio show, just sign me up and email me with the date. I will put it in my calendar multiple times so as not to forget
You are missed!!!
TSMs last blog post..Change
I get that same damned telemarketing call on all my phones!!! I don’t own a car or any kind of motor vehicle! Ugh!
Steve Rebooteds last blog post..On-going Survey
Dave2 – That’s more than 6 words. But terrifying.
hello – I’m not really scared about anything. I just wish the pains would stop. ;P
Whall – You scare me.
Miss Britt – It’s also a bad diagnosis since the pain is constant and ongoing. Cardiac episodes are acute and temporary.
Winter – Well you ARE a dirty girl.
Finn – Because to get that, I’m apparently going to have to do the Emergency Room wheel of fun.
Avitable – Yeah, it’s pretty common. If it bursts, you have approximately 5 minutes left to live before you bleed out into your abdomen.
Colin B – I assure you the medical issue has no correlation to the supply of TP. I don’t think.
Hilly – Creamer sends Celeste out to the store at any hour.
Karl – I’m surprised to hear you say that. I figured you would be a firm McCain/Palin supporter.
Lisa – I’ll be in touch about the show. That could be supremely interesting.
TSM – I just hate it when I go in to the doctor’s office knowing more than they do. I’ll be in touch about the show schedule
Steve – That doesn’t seem to be a good enough reason to not buy an extended automobile warranty.
???? ???? ??????? V ? ?? ??????? ????????????? ???????.
My favorite answer was once, “Wow. I’ve never heard of that before but it sounds like you fixed it!”
Thanks doc. No worries as to why my knees hurt so bad that I can barely walk and cutting out caffeine seems to fix it? Glad I asked.
Seriously, sometimes I think Dr.s make stuff up just to sound smarter.
But get better. Please.

Hi There! I hope it’s nothing serious! …whatever it is. Oh and you should seriously stock up on TP. Sounds like there’s some paranoia tied to limited supplies of it in your house!
