A small update.

I didn't want to clutter up the thread but this is a continuation of this.

I had posted about how I was extremely ill and had a hard time keeping food down.

I just got home earlier today after being in the hospital since early Thursday morning. I ended up having to have emergency abdominal surgery on Friday after a CT Scan revealed a large mass. This was actually an ovarian cyst, not entirely uncommon but the fact that it was this large was just weird.

They pumped 1.5 gallons of fluid out of it and it measured 14inches fully deflated. No one had seen one this big because ovarian cysts usually make themselves known by twisting the ovary and causing immense pain.

This thing had flattened my stomach, moved my intestines up under my diaphragm and was squishing my gallbladder/bile duct which was causing my liver to spaz out.

Even after so many tests and scans this went undetected. I'm just thankful it's out and I'm on the road to recovery. Test haven't shown any bacteria or anything abnormal about the cyst.

My body is just really weird, apparently.
