OK, I�ve had three plums and two nectarines today. This may spell doom for my tummy, later on. I just got back from Dr. Greenberg�s office. I love Dr. Greenberg. He spent like half an hour with me, asked me lots of questions and actually listened to my answers! He is doing another urine culture is actually supposed to call me on Friday with the results. He even went so far as to verify which phone number I�d be at and whether or not I have voice mail, in case I am at lunch. Holy crap. That said, I have to go back next week for an ultrasound. He�s going to start with that, to see if he can tell what�s going on. If that doesn�t work (and barring the miracle that I start feeling better), he�ll do the ol� roto-rooter, microscope thingy. Woo-Hoo! In the meantime, I am supposed to drink decaffeinated Chamomile tea twice a day for the pain and irritation. He is an anti-drug doctor (dammit!). Plus, he didn�t want to give me anything until he knows for sure what�s wrong with me, which is admirable. He said if the tea doesn�t help he�ll give me something else when he calls me Friday. Oh, of course the real reason I love Dr. Greenberg is that he said I don�t look very overweight. We were discussing my cholesterol at the time. God Bless Dr. Greenberg. |
