I haven’t blogged on here in awhile. I haven’t been on Facebook in a couple weeks or longer. I just haven’t felt like being on it. I been going through a depressive episode for 5-6 weeks, just not feeling like myself.
I seen a doctor yesterday, had a ct and labs ran. I was told that my liver is inflamed and I have pancreatitis. Also, some tissue seems to be inflamed in the upper middle abdomen. That explains the back pain and abdominal pain, the lack of appetite and all the vomiting. I’ve been miserable for a while now. They wanted to keep me in the hospital, but I wanted to go home, I told them I would come back and be hospitalized if it gets worse. Too much going on this coming week to be in the hospital.
I am going off the Byetta (diabetic drug). Rare side effects can be pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer and thyroid cancer. I don’t know if byetta is the cause of my pancreatitis, but I don’t know what else it could be. I know it’s not alcohol related. The last time I drank anything was when I was out for New Years Eve, and all I had was a beer and a glass of champagne. Byetta is the only thing I can think of that could have caused it.
Anyway, hoping this goes away on it’s own, I really don’t want to have to spend any more time in the hospital.
