I'd Take a Picture but I Don't Have a Wide Angle Lens

I hope she's doing ok. It's been a bit since she posted she wasn't feeling too well..

I'll second that Cascade Fresh is the best yogurt. Plain container is only 80 calories, 110 for the fat-free fruit flavors. The containers say "Activ8 your life" because there are 8 live cultures in the yogurt. I have severe acid reflux because the flap on the top of my stomach doesn't cover the opening, but this yogurt really helps. Only other product I've found that helps is Monavie.

As for sweet tea, you can still have it, you just need to use the good Stevia to sweeten it. (The good kind doesn't have the licorice aftertaste). Stevia is a natural sweetener that doesn't have the bad side effects of sugar. Both products can be found at specialty grocery stores like Whole Foods, Central Market, and Sprouts.

Well that should make it easier to find for me- since I don't have any of those in my area! Too funny but thanks for that info- my nutritionist loves Stevia too, I just have never found any.

Hey guys! I just got up.

Okay the pain is a little stronger than last night, it now hurts when I sit-before it only bothered me if I moved around a lot and was upright. It is in my back- both sides and if uncomfy when I bent to pick something up or brush my teeth.

My hair is washed, and dried, can't say much for the frizzy humidity style that I'm donning- and my doctor is called... I'm just waiting to hear back from them on the blood tests but I highly doubt a fallopian tube infection moves to your back- so my guess is appendix and surgery later today or tomorrow...

I'll keep you all informed.

I guess my office buddy (she's actual me and Rach's assistant) said that the president/owner is really worried about me, too- Any time someone walks by my desk they ask her if I'm gonna be alright, and they are worried.

Don't be so sure! The latest trend in prenatals is to include the DHA, so now the trend is either to take 2 pills that are each an inch long, or one really big pill that matches your description above.

That and I forgot to say before that you are in my prayers!

Okay, your pills win- but mine taste icky...does that count for something! LOL

Okay I'm going to lay back down here- not feeling so hot...

UpdateOkay, Nurse Holli called and said my test results were fine...
I said, well something's going on because I feel worse, and the pain has moved to my back- it hurts to bend over and I'm not comfy sitting like I was yesterday.

I told her I still had a low grade fever and when have any test results that have come back fine for me meant that there wasn't some other underlying issue going on... she aggreed.

She's grabbing Dr. Grande inbetween surgeries in the next 20 minutes and is going to speak to him.

Looks like it'll be off to the hospital for tests... I'll keep you posted guys- but I don't have internet access in the hospital, and I'm not going to ask DH to call a ton of strangers (to him anyway) and keep you all posted. I will have him call KATIE0128- since she's home during the day if anything huge comes up. Otherwise, please just pray that they either find something, or if they don't that the symptoms go away... and try to hang in there until I can get word back to you. I know it's hard and I'm so appreciative of all the concern- so I'll get word back when I do know something- I promise

I'll shoot you another quick message before I go off to the hospital.

Thanks guys!

Another UpdateOkay, Doctor Grande wants me in his office ASAP- he's connected to St. John's Hospital so if needed they can just wheel me over.

Yippe! More tests!

I'll keep you guys informed as I am able... be patient, Dr. Grande has lots of surgeries today and they are squeezing me in...

If you click on this link http://www.cascadefresh.com/stores.html you can look up the closest store to you by your state. I tried before posting, but couldn't find "still waters" there so you'll have to do it yourself. From other posts, i was trying to recall if Madison, WI was nearby...I even went to Member Introductions to see if I could ferret out your actual location in order to be more helpful! But you don't have to disclose where your secret hideout is to me...just use the link to find what you need!

And get better soon. I know you won't read this until you're either in a hospital room w/ internet access or back home, but either way, you are still in my prayers!
