I have a severe abdominal pain.
It started last Friday, and it comes and goes. Now, it's just there all the time.
I got so bad last night that I was sweating beads and pretty much stayed up all night due to the pain.
This was after I worked for 30-hours straight in the hospital.
I went to the emergency room today. After they ran a shit load of tests, everything came back normal.
So I am diagnosed with acid reflux.
I never imagined that reflux could be so painful.
It was also strange to be on the other side of the bed, receiving medical interventions instead of ordering them.
My stomach is still hurting a lot, but at least I know that I don't need surgery to fix whatever I have.
Being sick sucks.
