The sharp stomach pain is back with a vengeance this week, so today I went to my GI, Dr. Barbish. He ordered an MRI of my pancreas, pancreatic ducts, etc (the test is called an MCRP? MRCP? something like that) which I had today and an endoscopy which will be on the 15th. It is so painful that I can barely eat or drink anything (even water is very very painful), but I make myself do it anyway so that I don't have to do to the hospital. The magic number seems to be four pounds. If I lose more than four pounds in a week, I think they will make me go there, so my goal is to stay above that magic number (or lie, which at this point I might be willing to do...after all, they really can't do much at the hospital to help me at this point). Please pray that the pain goes away and/or we find the source. Gotta run, Ryan is just ITCHING to play on starfall.com!
