So life is kind of crappy; I can deal. I can make lemonade from lemons.

Ahh, the memories...
DanB2001 [9:34 PM]: yeah I can be pretty mean
Hockeysoccerlife [9:34 PM]: i know that
Hockeysoccerlife [9:34 PM]: but i remember when i punched you in the balls
DanB2001 [9:35 PM]: yeah
Hockeysoccerlife [9:35 PM]: that was funny
DanB2001 [9:35 PM]: that's mean
Hockeysoccerlife [9:35 PM]: two can play your games!
Hockeysoccerlife [9:35 PM]: just kidding
I completely forgot that I went to the doctor today! I saw the surgeon (finally), and well, things are okay, but not wonderful. Part of the HIDA scan I had is called an ejection fraction. It measures the functionality of your gallbladder. Normal results are 70-80%. They begin to worry/suspect something when they are 40%. The doctor tells me that mine is a little different. He's never seen one like mine before. My results are 2%. Wow.
So that means the gallbladder has to go, because it's just sitting there, doing nothing. However, the surgeon goes on to tell me that the surgery is 75% successful; 25% still have pain afterwards which can be related to other problems in the digestive track, such as IBS, ulcers, or anything else. Wonderful.
Okay, back to finishing homework/studying, and then some much needed sleep.
