My hematarcrit level came back normal. Which is a relief. Its on the lower end of normal. Normal is between like 40 and 47 or something and mine was right at 40. But at least its normal now. Before it was 49. Something and my doctor was super worried. My doctors need to talk and get me on a regular phelebotomy schedule so the level can stay steady. I slept decently last night. I woke up at 11 and got the results and ate some Lucky Charms and then fell back asleep until 3:30. Today my stomach is off again and my anxiety is high. The anxiety I assume is about tommorow. I just got my weekly shot half an hour ago so I'm hoping that settles my anxiety and doesn't make me feel super ER type nauseated the way it did the last 2 times. The biopsy is at 10:30 and I have to be at the hospital at 10. I think. I think total it takes like an hour and the needle part is only 5 minutes. I can't eat after midnight though so I'll need to eat something around 11PM. Currently I still feel kinda crappy anxiety wise.
I only had an organic burrito to eat today but then I had a Dr. Pepper and a couple bottles of water with some of that Mio and Kool Aid flavoring stuff you squirt into it. Then I got 2 large Diet Cokes with cream from Sonic and as Robin Williams from Mrs. Doutbfire would say "I've been pissing like a racehorse." All morning, but I'm still not in the mood for food. Its just anxiety at this moment. I'd rather have loss of appetite then the other way around.
My mom said we need to get to the hospital at 10 and the procedure is at 10:30 and it will take 15 minutes and then I'll be in observation for about 15 minutes. So according to just that it doesn't sound bad. I hope I really am just worrying for nothing.
Edit: it seems my weekly shot seems to be calming my anxiety and nerves a bit. I know I do often feel better after getting it. I wanted it last night in case I got the bad nausea but my mom told me to wait until the morning.
Edit again: I don't know why I expected to be going to the day surgery part of the hospital. But I guess I'm going to the ultrasound part. Which makes me feel better. Hopefully the ultrasound part is like a waiting room unlike day surgery. If I only have to be there half an hour before the appointment, I'm guessing they don't have to make too big of a fuss getting me ready.
