Just in case you don't know what's going on, here is a little recap.

I was raped in December. And about 8.5 weeks later I started feeling very sick. Assuming i was pregnant. So Ive gotten a bunch of test done. And now for SOME news.
I've been VERY VERY sick. It could be bad morning sickness, or something terribly worse.

We have ruled out cancer, ulcers, and UTI.
The home pregnancy test was negative but still waiting for the blood test.
My doc might think some of the pain is coming from PTSD.
And kidney failure is a very good possibility...
And still waiting for the Type 1 diabetes results.

All this is very scary because it could be something little or something fatal.

I know its not much of an update but I just wanted to tell what I know so far.

Thanks to everyone who has supported me through, not only this, but through all my troubles. Your encouragement really keeps me going.

I am so sorry for all the confusing possibilities you have going on. PTSD could certinly be the cause. Is type I diabetes a real possibility. And OMG kidney failure. That would be diabetes related possibly. Are both or those ocurring in your family, you seem mighty young to have that issue. It is good to check for everything. I will be glad and I know you will to when you find out what is going on. Not knowing is difficult.

Thanks for the update, please keep us informed and take care of your self.

Yes, they have been testing me for type 1 since I was a baby. They're always like, "are you sure she doesn't have it?"... So that's kinda normal for me I guess...
It's not from my dads side of the family, but my mom was adopted so I don't know her history. But I've always been sick, ever since I was a little crawling thing. I've been in and out of hospitals my wole life... Mostly for psnemonia and allergic reactions to things. I'm just always sickly
But it get scarier as I get older.
(Sorry for the little story there)

I need to know soon so I can make a plan for what happens next.
Thank you for caring <3 <3

Well then it is good to know the doctors are not just going on a wild goose hunt so to speak. They are checking into very relevant things. Now you just have to hang in there until you get much needed answers. Hang in there dear. They have to find out soon.
Thanks for this!

Very gentle hugs to you honey.

Hopefully, the test results will be ready soon and give you the answers now ~ finding illness/es that can be readily treated.

what up dear, Just curious how you are doing. Any test results of any kind, pregnancy, kidney, diabetic, other? Let us know how you are wee all care about you here. Hope all is going well.

We said special prayers for you Sunday. Just that your needs would be taken care of and that you would feel less alone and feel the arms of the Lord wrapped around you. Praying is all I can do. But if we have someone lifting us up in prayers what else do we really need anyway.

Thank you so much for the prayers. I just felt them touch my heart. you really don't know what it means to me. (I'm literally crying because I'm so touched, I feel loved)

And the result came back...
Good news: it's nothing we thought. Not a baby or an infection or any of that... (We don't know about diabetes yet)

Bad news: the doctors have no idea why I am so sick and in so much pain.

Thank you for lettting us know how you are. Glad your not preg., glad it's not the other things to. Now the dr's just gotta figure out what it is huh.

Please know you are in my thoughts. Sometimes prayers are all we have. I didn't want to say anything to raid your thead at the time, my intent was helping you get t hrew this, but if it makes a difference, I was raped when I was 15. I stayed w/ the guy and it continued for 8 or 9 months. I felt guilty because I didn't get away and stayed w/ him. I allowed this to happen by not leaving him. After T 20 years later I realize it was not my fault. I didn't like the treatment I got from him and I didn't come back for more abuse. It's a shame it took 20 years to find that out or for someone to believe me. I already knew deep down inside.

Just letting you know you are not alone. I'm 38 and am just now getting this resolved. So there is hope and I know what you feel like. Take care girlie. Hope you find out soon what in the world is going on.

Thank you for the prayers. And I'm sorry to hear about that. It's not something I would wish upon anyone.

Thank you. I'm sorry you are sick as well. I have many symptoms that don't go together. The one that really bothers though is the server random pain. It's unbearable.

Check out Celiac disease. It can cause all types of problems all over your body. It is an intolerance to gluten. The first part of testing is just a blood test. Check it out. I hope they figure out what is wrong.
