Medical Day

I slept in because I was up at 6AM yesterday due to the wind.  Around 11 I realized I had to go get a blood test for Dr. Hitler.  The place I go closes at noon for lunch, so I launched into the shower and got there with wet hair, still cramping up in my stomach. 

Since I'm unable to get a liver specialist to call me back, I've decided to try not to drink booze anymore, and not take any more pain medication.  I hope this will help out as much as possible, and as I lose weight my liver will get better too.

I went out to Sushi with the hubby and then went to the regular doctor's appointment.  She said my liver looked better, and I had lost a few pounds since February.  I'll take it!  However, then she said that...and I'm paraphrasing here...I have a touch of Epstein-Barr.

Apparently there are around 4 antibodies to test, and I'm positive on just one of them.  She thinks I got a dormant version on the virus when I was a kid, and it just decided to come out and play.  The only thing to do is to sleep it off, so I guess that is what I did yesterday.

I'm again glad to see I'm not crazy being so tired lately.  I just don't know when that light at the end of the tunnel is going to appear.
