At 11 I called Michael to pick me up, which sucked for him since he had to leave work to bring me home. I got home, made an appointment to see the doctor at 7:15 that evening, and tried to sit on the couch and watch some movies. About halfway through the first movie I went to bed, my stomach hurt too much to be sitting on the couch. Ugh. Funny thing is that I hadn&#8217;t eaten dairy or meat in the previous couple days, I couldn&#8217;t find anything in my diet that should have caused such stomach upset.<\/p>\n<p>So I went to the doctor that evening. Advil had helped most of the pain subside, and I was able to talk to the doctor about my stomach problems. He said I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome and put me on Bentyl, which I need to take 3 times a day, yuck. I still wasn&#8217;t feeling good on Friday and called out of work, sigh. At least I felt well enough to sit on the couch and watch movies, but man my stomach was hurting. It was feeling better by about 3 in the afternoon, but still not good enough to meet our friends for movie night.<\/p>\n<p>Today I&#8217;m feeling better, and I&#8217;m glad I finally went to the doctor about my stomach aches. Hopefully this medication will help.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re planning on going to a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.montcopa.org\/parks\/green%20lane.htm\">Green Lane Park<\/a> this afternoon to do some walking on the trails and things. Then this evening we&#8217;ll be going to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.celfire.com\/DemoDay.htm\">Celebration Fireworks&#8217; annual demonstration day<\/a> with some friends. It should be a fun day. And it&#8217;s beautiful out, for the 8th straight day, no rain, no clouds, just sunny, warm weather.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These past few days have not been so good.
