Health Check and Welcome to 2016!!!

Hey everyone!!!! So here is an update of my life as of right now! It has been pretty crazy the last month or so! About Thanksgiving time I started getting pretty sick. It was about a week after Thanksgiving. I was having a hard time eating. I couldn't keep anything in my body. It was absolutely awful. I threw up about twenty minutes after eating and just felt awful all the time. I was so nauseous everyday and was so exhausted. I went to the urgent care and the doctor that saw me did my bloodwork and it all came back normal. So he told me that I was stressed and that I should see a pyschiatrist. So I went home and just dealt with feeling gross for awhile. It ended up going away the next day for about a week. Then when it came back, it was a LOT worse than it was before. I couldn't keep anything in my body, not even water. It was getting bad.

I went to see my actual doctor, who has been my doctor since I was little. He looked me over and told me that he wanted to do more bloodwork and a stool sample test. He told me that if he didn't find anything wrong he wanted me to have a colonoscopy. So I waited for my tests. I couldn't keep anything down at all. Everything I ate or drank came right back up. I got my bloodwork back on a Tuesday and everything was normal. They told me that I would get my other tests back by Monday. So I waited. That Monday I got SO sick. I was at work teaching my kinders and I just couldn't even do anything. I almost passed out in front of them. So I had to sit down while they were playing, which was sad because I love playing with them and I couldn't. After my morning classes, I made my way to my mom's classroom and just laid on the floor. I did not feel well at all. My mom said I looked horrible and I just couldn't move. My mom called the clinic and she got me an appointment with a doctor I have never seen before. We ended up going to the doctor right then.

He looked me over, did all the normal routine checks. (I lost a total of 12 pounds over 4 weeks.) Then he told me that he thought that I was completely healthy. He wanted to give me a shot that would stop the vomitting and diarrhea and then he said that I should be fine. If I was still feeling sick the next morning then he wanted me to come in and get an ultrasound. So he gave me the shot, I went home and slept for about 5 hours. I ended up breaking up with my boyfriend that night as well. So Monday was just a bit rough for me. I ended up eating dinner and felt fine. The next morning I woke up feeling AMAZING. I was so happy and I was able to eat everything and anything I wanted. I just felt great. I think that my body was telling me that I wasn't supposed to be dating the boy I was dating. Even though he was absolutely fantastic. He was the sweetest, most caring, loving person. He made me extremely happy but I just kept feeling that something wasn't right and that I shouldn't keep it going. It was hard to break up with him, and there are times when I wish I didn't. But I honestly believe that the Spirit was telling me that he wasn't the one and I needed to say goodbye. And I did, and I have been incredibly happy ever since then. It has been a weird week, but a good one.

I have been able to eat all the food and I love it. I am honestly so happy and I am doing so well. I have already been set up on another date and I am quite excited about it. Heavenly Father has so much in store for me in the next couple of months. This year is going to be amazing. I am going to be finishing up my general education classes. My best friend and I are going to go to Germany to visit my WONDERFUL German family for a few weeks in June. I will be moving out and living in the basement apartment of my family that I nanny for now. I am going to have a fantastic time with that. I'm so excited!!! My life is so wonderful right now. I am happy, healthy and so looking forward to 2016!!! I will be a better blogger this year.... hopefully. Haha

Thanks for reading everyone! I love you all so much!
