I hope your tests things turn out well and you are ok.

Thanks, Mountaindewed.
I remember a few times in my life (even once as a maybe 8 year old child) having periods when I had such digestive issues (maybe heartburn, indigestion, other) that I felt nauseated at even the thought of eating. Or I was able to eat a little, but only sweet stuff. Everything else made me feel like vomiting. Once, the time I was about 8 years, it was so severe that my mother took me to a doctor. The doctor told her that I did not have anorexia. That's all I remember. In any case, it did pass. Again, I experienced similar later down the line. It always eventually passed. Sometimes I found myself downing antacids or thinking I was going to die of a heart attack. I think most all of those times digestive distress was involved. In my case, I never had any kind of eating disorder. That is not an issue for me, and never was.
