medic!

Monday morning was the first day of a brand new semester. I woke up with a stomach ache.

Tuesday was the second day of a brand new semester. I woke up with a stomach ache again.

Wednesday was the third day. No stomach ache. It instead showed up at about 2 pm, worse than ever.

Thursday I decided to go to the doctor. I had no symptoms aside from constant pain, and it was to the point where I was pretty sure I'd ruptured something important, and it was slowly leaking in to my abdomen, which would soon cause my midsection to inflate like a water balloon until my skin couldn't contain the mess.

Turns out I was wrong. Blood work came back completely clean, which lead to the diagnosis of, "Well, it looks like you're body's just having a lot of trouble digesting something. Make sure you drink a lot of water and try to eat a lot of oatmeal."

Isn't it embarrassing when you go to the doctor and it turns out you're just a pussy?
