*Graphic medical talk* Severe OOG alert!

It is 2:09am, and I just finished looking some things up online after a hot bath and vomiting.  Yes, you read that right.  I took a bath, to see if I could ease my tum-tum.  No such luck.  I got out and threw up AGAIN!!!!!

The graphic part : (this is why the severe oog alert)

I noticed, while and after throwing up, that I had pieces of bologna in my vomit.  The last time I ATE bologna was WAY earlier today.  I can’t exactly pinpoint the time, but I think it was almost 10 hours before I threw up.  This bologna looked as if I had just eaten it a few minutes before my oogy vomit session!!!!!

That got me to thinking!  That’s dangerous, I know….anyway….

I reached the conclusion that the reason I have gotten so sick lately is because my Nexium has stopped my digestion completely.  Not just stopped some acid production…apparently, it has stopped ALL acid production.  10 hours later, there was still what looked like freshly eaten bologna and cheese?  I don’t effing think so, people!  No wonder I’ve been bloating so outrageously and so pain-wracked and lethargic, though I was more energetic before supper, I admit.

What I think happened was this :

A few days back, my body decided it wouldn’t digest anything anymore, but it forgot to tell me right off the bat.  The night that I first got sick….I wrote about it in here….was the first night I knew I had a problem.  I think the problem had been building up inside me for at least two days.

Then, after throwing up what seemed like an army’s stomach contents, I was free to stock my tummy full of OTHER stuff that wouldn’t be digested and would have to be expelled!

Makes sense to me!

I did a little research on Proton Pump Inhibitors, which is what class of medicines Nexium falls into.  A lot of the pages I found online said that these medicines DO completely STOP acid production.  Now, why wouldn’t a doctor tell me this?  Do they think I am a moron?  Well, I DO act like one in the office, a lot of times.  Still, they could’ve told me!

I think I will see if the doc will re-prescribe Zantac 150.  It helped, though not as much as I’d’ve liked, and I never experienced a problem like this!

Even though I’m bloated and in pain, I’m all excited right now.  Is that dumb?  I found out what apparently is causing my problem, and that always initially makes me feel better.

I want to go to bed, but, quite frankly, I’m afraid to.  My Mikey has Restless Leg Syndrome, and the vibrations on the bed upset me tummy, so I’m quite afraid I’ll have to ralph again!!!!

Gawd, I’m a chicken!

Anywho….I’ll stop rambling for now.

My Key, My Mikey, I am sorry I am not in there with you.  I want to be.  I want to cuddle up to you, hold you, have you hold me….just be there with the love of my life.  My lower lip is sticking out and trembling now!  WAAAAAAAAAAH!

I love you forever times PI cubed plus one, my precious baby,

Your Jack
