My health
by Kayko3173 on Comments
So I haven't really ever talked about my health on my blog, but I have been very sick for the past 2 years. The doctors have diagnosed me with "failure to grow and thrive." This pretty much means that I'm skinny, short, and have a hard time gaining weight. That has been going on all my life, however, in these last 2 years I've been having stomach problems, mainly extreme nausea. Many doctors have given up on me but there are a few who haven't. An acupuncturist helped me with part of my problems which was food poisoning. The food poisoning was never taken care of and bacteria had grown throughout my body. So after that was taken care of most of the nausea went away but not all of it. So on Tuesday I had a procedure where a doctor put a camera down my stomach. What he found was that I was born with a "structural malfunction" as I call it. I have 2 blood vessels that are on opposite sides of my stomach squeezing it when normally they should be on the same side. This explains my lack of appetite, nausea, and other stomach problems. The doctors think that I have genetic problems as well so I'll be tested for those soon. Well I think thats basically it. I'm still cool though 8)
