I did not have that much pain with my gall bladder problem. Rather, I didn't really notice the pain because I was nauseous as fuck. I don't puke very much at all. If I am doing that, I'm really sick. The last time I was that sick, I was 16 years old.

That said, when it got so bad that I had to have it taken out, I think I was on painkillers waiting for a diagnosis and a plan for care. I honestly don't know what the hell they put in that IV.

ita, I hope you feel better soon. Feeling nauseous is just so terrible. It is one of the worst feelings in the world to me.

Oh, I had my GB out in my 30s. I wasn't particularly farty. But I was goddess sized!

"OMG I just found out there are 104 nuclear plants in the US!

Yes, and they supply 20 percent of the electricity in this country.

I hope it lets up, ita. And if it doesn't, I hope the ER helps. I had something like that last fall and it was miserable, but a trip to the ER and a week of clear liquids pretty much took care of it.

I started feeling remarkably unpleasant earlier this afternoon. Decided to be kind to myself and skip the gym. Temp is 99.3. At this point, I'm wondering if I need antibiotics.

Are you still having frothy lungs?

Are you still having frothy lungs?

Frothiness has abated, but I'm still congested and coughing.

I didn't know it was possible for the human body to produce as much snot as I currently am.
