I saw my PCP on Thursday. He increased one of the prescription meds and recommended adding another OTC… that makes 5 meds for my GI problems now. He ordered a whole bunch of plain X-Rays (I already had them done) that I imagine will be useless and is referring me to a gastroenterologist. My appointment isn't until May 12th, but the receptionist said that they will review the notes from my PCP and give me an earlier appointment if they think I need it. If my PCP documented everything we discussed, that's what will happen. Everything I eat makes me sick. I would stop eating, but taking the meds on an empty stomach would make me sick.

I wake up around 6am every morning without an alarm. If I stay up really late I may wake up as late as 8, but never later than that. Yesterday I slept until 1pm!!! I can't remember the last time I slept that late!!! I don't know why… I have been feeling terrible because of my GI issues, but am otherwise fine. At any rate, it didn't interfere with my sleep last night. I went to bed at 10pm and woke up this morning at 6:30 so I'm right back on track.

The letter I needed from the NH DMV got here Thursday. I'm just waiting on my driving record now. I'm sure my request is at the DMV by now, so I should have it in 7-10 business days. My husband's going to take me to the MA DMV a week after I get it. I plan on going straight to my insurance agent from there. So, I could be finished with part 1 in as early as 2 weeks! I'm very excited!
