Health update. Thank you for all those good thoughts.
I went to the gastroentrologist today. You all know that I first had an ovarian cyst, which has either shrunk or disappeared completely. The trouble is that I am still in extreme pain in my stomach. The gastroentrologist says it is probably a hernia. This is good news because I will NOT have to have a colonscopy. The only bad news I see is that he is not magician and I STILL have the same pain. He is going to talk to my GP and see what kind of treatment I can take.
Thank you for your support.

3. I hope your doctors can coordinate,
figure out for sure what is going on, and get you some relief. :hug:

Please be well. I'm far too used to pain that never goes away. I don't want you to have it too. I want you to be healthy and pain-free.

5. I just found out that apparently I have a cute little snore.
:P

Now that I sleep in the living room, my nephew has to walk past me every time he comes in or out, and often I'm sound asleep. He just informed me that he can always tell immediately whether or not he needs to be quiet because he can hear my cute little snore. :)

I'm doing pretty well despite a lot of pain today. Mostly I was very confused, disoriented, and exhausted today. That's why I was asleep all day.

6. Aww, honey. I bet you have a lovely snore.
:hug: I am sorry you are in such pain, but it's good that you can rest. Your nephew sounds cute. It's good that he respected you and let you sleep. :) :hug:
