Stomach Virus (I call it Larry) by sixrabbits

Friday I went to the clinic with nausea, pain, and other fun unlady-like symptoms...because of the location of the pain and a family history of diverticulitis, the doctor there suggested that is was a bacterial infection associated with diverticulitis. She prescribed me some antibiotics and gave me a shot of some anti-nausea meds (with the biggest freaking needle ever).

So this morning I woke up and threw up for three hours then passed out again.

My regular doctor advised me that one of the antibiotics the clinic put me on is most likely what's making me vomit. So I won't be taking those anymore.

She also says that she isn't going to make an official call on the diverticulitis without a CT scan. Because of my age she says that it would be super rare for me to develop it this young. So yay... I most likely don't have gut pimples...

I'm actually more bummed about having to miss work because of this. Previous jobs I wouldn't give a crap, but I was so excited for work today. I hope I can get over this quickly, I want to go back to work dammit!!!
