Gall Bladder Discomfort

If any of you have had issues with their gall bladders then you know what I am talking about when I say "DISCOMFORT". Ugh, I woke up this morning and had major discomfort in the middle of my chest, right under my breasts and I tell you -- it hurts like crazy!! I must admit it is heck when you get older. I literally feel like I am falling apart and I don't care for the feeling at all. Shawn had to go to work since he is off with me tomorrow and I am here with two little ones when all I really want to do is crawl up into the fetal position on my bed and cover up with my blankets. I unfortunately "have to eat" since I am a diabetic which doesn't help the way I feel. It just adds to the symptoms which is so much fun. I ate a bagel this morning. It was plain and I put nothing on it and it still made me feel like I wanted to vomit. I am so nauseated and I feel just awful. I called my parents just to make sure that my pain, nausea and discomfort was from the gall bladder and everything that I described was what they recall experiencing before they had theirs taken out. So, those multiple stones are wreaking havoc on my gall bladder and causing so much pain that I could scream. What is really sad is that these gall stones are probably so small, but yet they cause so much pain, discomfort and nausea that you would think there were some boulders rolling around in there.
On another sweet note..... Cameron woke up before Shawn left for work so, Shawn went upstairs to get him. I was relaxing in the recliner trying to get comfortable, but had a feeling that I was just wasting my time. There is no getting comfortable when you have gall stones and a gall bladder that needs to be taken out. Shawn was telling Cameron that he needed to stay here and take care of Mommy today and just as he comes down the steps and around the corner, Cameron runs over to me and asks "Ok, Mommy?" It was so cute!! He then held his arms out and said "Hold you Mommy." It was the most precious thing that I have seen. They may be little, but they understand and they are just so sweet and caring. I love it!! I just love my little boy to pieces. Well, my appointment tomorrow is in the afternoon and I am ready to have this done. I am hoping that they say I can have the surgery soon because after this spell, I am ready to get it over with. So, here is to hoping that the pain goes away and stays away!! I will keep you all posted on what the surgeon has to say.
