I think I might be officially broken.
My family is full of lemons. (Sorry guys, but you've said so yourselves.)

Now, for a while, I've often wondered if I was pregnant again. (I know! Don't judge!) I have an IUD so I don't have my monthly visitor, and my pregnancy test came back negative BUT you can have a false negative so who knows. I never really had heartburn until I was pregnant and I always had headaches throughout my pregnancy. Lo and behold, both of the symptoms began as well as feeling um...movement?...in my tummy. Weird. Needless to say, I'm still unsure if I'm pregnant, but I'd be fairly far along and it's probably wise if I find out. That IUD can't be healthy for a fetus.



Five. I had to have an ultrasound in my upper right thigh to check for Arterial Thrombosis because one day my leg hurt and after about 3 days I was walking like I had a rod in it. (I looked like a fool and it killed to walk!) Turns out it was a swollen lymph node. Hahaha- see? These are just getting funnier! Why in the world would someone my age have all this STUFF?! AAAAND, in 2008 I was sent to the hospital to have an Upper GI and a Colonoscopy for internal bleeding. Apparently I was on the brink of stomach cancer. Eeho. 

Now that I think about it, I'm seeing a theme here. It's always on my right side! So maybe I'm halfway broken. I'm broken vertically, down the middle. Weird. Anyway, I'm not sure the reason for all of this nonsense but I know I've learned one thing from it all. You have no idea how much you appreciate a body part until it is out of commission. (Or TOW UP, as we would say).
Appreciate your well functioning bodies, all you non-potentially-prego, non-Benjy Button, non-lemons, you.
Funny that you think you're pregnant and feeling movement in your stomach because I think that ALL the time! Definitely freaky!
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness lauren! i'm sorry for your broken body. i didn't think you could get pregnant when you have an IUD, can you? if you are i think that'd be sooooo exciting!! but if you hope you aren't then hopefully it just, um, i don't know, indigestion?? haha.
