I made an appointment with the shoulder guy... it's on the 28th. I enjoyed my little break this week from medical obligations, but I have at least 2 medical-related things to do every week for the next three weeks

I put myself through HELL yesterday by taking 4 bisacodyl tablets (slight OD) vs. more mag. citrate. I was doubled over in God-awful pain on and off from about 3-10:30pm, but it worked. I'm done with the heavy-hitters FOR NOW

Terrible problem.... I have to do a better job keeping up with it. I should make an appointment with my gastro, but have too many appointments already.

I feel terrible this morning, and I know it's because I'm dehydrated, and because of what I went through yesterday. I will nurse the bottle of Gatorade I have sitting in the fridge, but I think I may try to go back to bed.

The only positive is that over the last 3 days, I lost 4+ pounds of the weight I was upset that I recently gained.
