we MIGHT have found the cause of my pain!!! after my post asking you guys to pray, the pain has continued to get worse. in fact, i don't remember the last day since Christmas that i haven't had pain. today it reached a boiling point when i missed my 8 am lab cause it hurt so much i couldn't get out of bed. Well, mom flipped, but she talked to my "family" doc. te he he. my poor cousin is a dr. and gets plagued w/ all our medical woes.

---mk so now for the news you are actually reading this for---
she says it sounds like i have an ULCER!!!!
kinda  freaky, but if that means we can make the pain stop............yeah

so i'm now on a BRAT diet at the order of my mom
(Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, Toast)
and
Prilosec OTC at the order of my cousin

Thank you Lord for even this possibility!

I'll tell you if it helps in about a week!
