    Hospital visit

    I just got out of the hospital yesterday 8-29-07. I was in there since saturday....and so the story goes. I was feeling a little run down the past couple of weeks and I just thought i would call the Dr. and have some blood work done. I had it done on friday, and the very next day the Dr.'s office calls and says i need to get the the E.R. as soon as possible that my blood count is Dangerously low! it is sopposed to be 12 to 14. and mine was 6. I got to the hospital and over the 5 days i was in there they ran tests, gave me 2 units of blood. they found out i had a couple of ulcers and crohn's disease. Crohns is a hereditary disease of the small intestine that makes it inflamed, and these things was why i was slowly bleeding to death. So now i'm on 5 different meds to clear this crap up. This really sucks i'm only 22!!

    Just thought I would share my exciting weekend, i'm home and feeling much better now.

    My neighbor has Crohn's. He does super well with it and you would never know he was diagnosed with it. His attitude is really good and I think that's at least 50% of the battle.
