Phone doctor appt tomorrow

Please pray we can hammer out a plan to address all that is going on. Thyroid numbers are bad, liver enzymes worse, pancreatitis flare up since the weekend, I think my gallbladder is chiming in now too. I am not sleeping through the night either. Pain level is very high and I'm maxxed out on medication that hurts my liver further... I could go on and on.

I felt so good for a little while, but I'm going downhill again. It's been a week steady downhill, worse everyday. I just hope with new eyes and new treatments, we can stop it. There is only so much he can do long distance though. I have no doctor here yet. I just hope to stay out of the hospital.

I've been here so many times, sick again after a big improvement. I'd be lying if I said I really believed I'd ever be well again. I believe in prayer, but maybe this is the answer? We don't all get what we want just because we ask. I'll be well in heaven.

Trouble...

I haven't slept from about 1 or 2 am until 4 or 5 am in days. I am having a flare up of pancreatitis. It's been a year since I have had that and I'm not sure of the cause this time, but it's painful and frustrating. My body pain is up, my legs are weak, lymph nodes in my neck are swollen, I'm sweating all night despite normal ambient room temperatures and I'm tired. I kind of ignored and made light my symptoms the past few days hoping they'd pass and it was just a one day thing, but I can't ignore this achy pancreas. It's really disappointing, frustrating, disheartening...you have no idea. Well, maybe some of you do.
