Ugh, it's back
Feb. 11th, 2006 02:17 pmJust when I thought I was starting to feel better, my diarrhea has come back full force. Over the past couple of days, it had really started to go away, and I was feeling great yesterday. Today, I've been up for about 4 hours, and have been to the bathroom about 12 times, I kid you not. Steve and I went to El Torito last night, so maybe that had something to do with it, though I've never been sick from their food before. It feels like it's starting to settle down, but I don't know if it really will. I took some Imodium, drank a bunch of Gatorade, and ate a banana, but so far, nothing's working.
My real paranoia about the whole thing is this: I was reading an email saying that diarrhea can be a sign of ovarian cancer. Of course, my hypochondriac mind is in overdrive thinking about this, so now I want to get the CA-125 blood test to make sure that's not it. They say the symptoms are very similar to a GI problem, with bloating, constipation, and/or diarrhea. I always kind of look bloated, but that may just be because I eat crappy food.
