I wouldn't call it obsessed,I would call it scared ******** of the idea that I have it,but I only am so worried because my Doctor is telling me all these things,like I'm never gonna get better,I'm gonna have to deal with frequent Pneumonia cases,breathing difficulties,might end up on oxygen.I mean how would that effect any 33 year old! If he wouldn't have told me I had that,I would just be afraid wondering what is wrong with me.But yesterday,I was with my Doctor friend for like 3 hours,and one of my pain attacks hit me,where I spike a fever,and she saw it,and saw my face go from white to red,then back to white again,that fast,and where I couldn't breath,while the pain was still there,she thinks it's my gallbladder,because thats where the sharp pain hit me,and it's been going on like that for a few months,and my doctor has been ignoring it.So she is gonna have a chat with him about it,and tell him what she saw,and hope he listens! Plus she'll be on call at the hospital Mon,and Tuesday,so you never know,if he doesn't listen,she may even straight admit me,and test me herself.She really cares about me. I just wish my doctor still did!
Ya know,I appreciate your support on all this so much,I just wanted you to know that,cause I'm like a scared little kid right now,wanting to go hide behind my Dad when a stranger walks in the room,you know!
