That's the only explanation I can come up with for why I woke up sick again today.
I really want to be able to make it to NASFIC. I can't afford to throw away the $120 I spent on the membership. But I also don't want to be driving to Raleigh and need a bathroom NAO, or in the middle of a panel (that I'm on) and need to run off stage.
I got a brief call back from my doc's nurse, who said my doc wants me to do the metronidazole, but I have trouble keeping food & water down; there's no way I'll be able to do metro. But I left a message earlier this morning about feeling nauseous & vomiting again, which may change the equation. The nurse said she'd relay the message about the n/v part and my dr would get back to me asap. (She's off Wednesdays, so today's really busy.)
I hope it doesn't change the equation to "go to the hospital today."
I haven't had a chance to let her know I had some much more mild bouts over the last year, of randomly waking up at 2 or 3 am with nausea (and sometimes vomiting, but not often), or that when I went to bed last night, I had a sharp, stabbing pain under my ribs on the right.
I'm much more inclined to think it's the gallbladder.
All I know is this had better be fucking OVER before Dragon*Con.
