Don't worry too much about me Bizi! I'm not in pain- I'd call it discomfort. Yes, I am nauseous tho. I'm feeling quite a bit worse today, but nothing severe. If I get worse, I promise I'll go to the ER.

I saw the gastro this morning. I have a slightly elevated white blood cell count, so she suspects I may have diverticulitis. Of course, it could be something else.

I am having a CAT scan of my abdomen and bowel on Friday. I have to go to the hospital's radiology dept. to pick up some crap to drink before hand.

No matter what, I won't escape the colonoscopy....
If the CAT scan shows diverticulitis, they'll rx some antibiotics and scope me after the inflammation does down.
If the CAT scan doesn't show anything, I'll probably have the colonoscopy sooner.

I finally got my PAP results: the same low-grade abnormal cells. I just have to have another PAP in 4 months. Not too bad.

So, that's the latest.

I have to go to the hospital to drop of the poop cards, pick up the contrast for the CAT scan, and have more blood drawn... I should go now, but I don't wanna!
I'll probably just suck it up and go get it over with.
