Medical Emergency – Freestyle

I am currently in the midst of a medical emergency and as a result I am not currently able to perform in my normal capacity. I am ill for real this time – but again. You see, my gallbladder decided to go bezerk, so now I am in the hospital – again. Well, I'm not exactly lucky these days. I think it is safe to say that my routine of slipping lunch is over. The doctors tell me that I need to eat less but more stretched out during the day. Not eating for several hours appears to be a significant trigger of my gallbladder attacks. I also know that eating greasy food is out of the question. I've been very good at not eating greasy foods and I need to stick to that. But from now on I am going to start to eat small lunches consisting of mostly fruits and vegetables low in fat. I did have some issues with my liver as well, which is potentially more disastrous if something goes wrong with that. I also ate potato chips the day before that, also something that I typically don’t eat. I just didn’t think that eating this would trigger my gallbladder stones so much. I guess I forgot. I do know that Indian food works very well for me, but there are some things in Indian food such as Palek Paner that is way too greasy for me; so evrn if it’s Indian that does not mean that I can eat it. But mostly I've been eating chicken and rice these last couple of years and again I have never experienced any such issues from that diet. I just need to note these things. The issue seems to be that when I don’t eat during the day, tje gallbladder starts to contract and when I eat during the evening it just overloads the gallbladder, especially if the food is greasy. But eating continuously throughout the day is also important because I don’t want an inflamed gallbladder because then they won’t be able to perform surgery, not until the gallbladder is back to mo inflammation, or much less inflammation. So this sucks, but it’s life on the planet I guess. I am actually writing this as I am still in the ER and I am staying for a couple of hours because the doctors want to observe me, because of my liver actually. Now I have that worry as well. But the doctor said that my liver values likely had to do with my stressed body, because it does take a lot of stress to go through these medical emergencies, and really more than an emergency what I went through was much more of a pain management issue, because the pain is so extraordinary that I simply required medical intervention and some kind of emergency pain relief. It just didn’t work out to try to wait it out. Pf course, the worst thing in this whole story is the fact that the pain is extreme and very few things work to actually kill the pain: morphine didn’t work and another medication that I was prescribed really didn’t work either; only the medication that the ambulance and the hospital gave me worked to treat the pain and that is scary to me. Because it's not like I can walk around in the world and all of a sudden get extreme pain. I mean, it’s one thing to get extreme pain when you're home; it’s entirely different to get this kind of pain when you’re not at home. Really, I cannot imagine getting into this kind of pain on public transportation or in a cab or something like that, really disastrous and nightmarish. For awhile there I was thinking that I am going to die because of the extreme pain. Of course, I had this issue with my gallbladder back in October but since then I'm mostly been just fine, just fine. My history of this kind of pain began in 2024 when I started to lose weight but back then the pain was manageable and eventually went away quickly. Now the pain is far more aggressive and just doesn’t let up. What a disaster indeed. It’s funny, not really, because the whole point of losing weight was so that I could become more healthy, not less healthy. But I just lost too much weight too quickly and that was not good. Well, it’s about 7.00 am here soon which means that it’s early morning here. Of course, for me who tends to wake up at 6 it’s kinda mid-early morning. But yes, I've not been very able to sleep tonight, because of the lightness in the ER and all that. What am I supposed to say about this? Well, not much. The moral of this story is that food must be treated well.
