Still dealing with gastrointestinal issues. Not feeling well. The doctor wants to see me this week and then wants a bunch of tests run. If I don't eat anything or if I just eat a little bit, I should be able to make it to the doctor's office and back.
I miss hearing all the news; and I'm getting way too far behind on everything.
Take care.
Linda

Don't worry about "getting behind". We understand you don't feel well and only want you to feel better. 
I hope the doctors can figure out what's wrong and "fix" you.

It's 3:40 am; and I'm starving. Maybe I can have a banana. I am trying not to eat too much at one time.

@LindaOHio As long as your doctor said bananas are okay, then eat one.
I wouldn't eat rice but that's because I don't eat rice.

Great photo! Thanks for sharing.
Sorry to hear that you are still suffering. I tell you though, if you had not posted I was giving you one more day and I was going put up a post to see if anyone had heard from you. I was worried that your gastro stuff had gotten worse.
As far as the getting behind goes, I agree with what DE said. Don't worry. Be happy.

@LindaOHio .......Well, that's good. And being to type those two words without any mistakes means your cognitive ability is okay. Good to note.

@LindaOHio Small bits of food here and there should help you more.

It's best when I eat small meals or no food at all.

Linda, the most important thing is to get to the doctor and hopefully the tests can figure out what's going on. Don't worry about what's going on, we are just glad to hear from you.

@MarieCoyle It's the prep that's so bad. It makes me sick.

I wonder if some of it can be your nerves. I had that as a teenager, called a “nervous stomach.” Let’s face it, you’ve been through a LOT the past year, and all the stress of home repairs isn’t helping. But you’re very smart to get a doctor to check it out. I hope it is just nerves.

I don't think it's nerves; but it seems to be improving.

@LindaOHio it’s not fun when you feel like crap or something’s bothering you. Hate it when it happens to me.
