I ate some iceberg lettuce a few weeks ago and haven't been the same since. All my usual tricks aren't working. And I'm exhausted from this going on for so long. So I finally broke down and have an appointment with my GI January 17.
I am, of course, imagining the worse....long-term prednisone, surgery, etc., when he'll probably just put me on a burst of pred.
I'm upset because out of the blue my liver tests have been slightly elevated. So, all this time I've been thinking I have a mild case of CD when the reality is setting in that it could get a lot worse. That's a very real possibility.
I'm just scared for some reason. I've been off my antidepressants so that's probably why. I'm back on them though.
I guess I just need to say all this to people who understand. Making the appointment this morning made it all come crashing in on me. I've been in denial.
