So I've encountered a slight hitch in my flow of drawings(not that I was getting anywhere fast here). Today I got taken to the emergency room and had to spend pretty much the entire day there.
My teacher called the paramedics during class cus I started having really awful abdominal cramps, to the point of vomiting, sweating and nearly passing out. So they drove me to a nearby hospital where they did a buncha tests/poked and prodded me repeatedly to see what was wrong. I had to have blood work, and IV, a CAT scan, and an ultrasound (and almost got some kinda pelvic probe, but they couldn't do it cus I'm a virgin. Dodged that bullet! XD) Apparently I have some ovarian cysts, which isn't too big a deal as long as they're not cancerous, which mine aren't. But it does make menstrual cramping very painful. I've never had any cramps that bad til today and I REALLY hope this doesn't become a regular thing because that was excruciating. The doctor gave me a prescription for Vicodin, but I don't think I'm going to go the the pharmacy unless things get bad again because I don't want to become reliant on it/I don't really have extra money for that kinda thing at the moment. But on the plus side, I finally got an excuse to use my Muppet band-aids for the pokes on my arms! The pain is much better now and I haven't had anything close to those bad cramps since this afternoon, so hopefully thing'll get better. I'm mostly bummed cus I missed a day of school/an afternoon to work on final projects and commissions, so I have some catching up to do on schoolwork before the week is over.
