HOLY CRAP!!!!

You know that old saying "you are what you eat?" Well, apparently the reason I've been FEELING like crap for months & months is because I was actually EATING crap while I was in India. (Although Dr. Kummer said it in a much more medically correct way, as in "Stormi, you've ingested what appears to be a substantial amount of fecal-contaminated matter and - as a result - your stool is filled with parasites. In fact, your stool is CRAWLING with them.")

Yep, it's only taken two months for NY's finest to "partially" diagnose my issue as an amoebic parasite called ENDOLIMAX NANA. Which in and of itself is no big deal. Because it doesn't cause any other diseases. But it CAN take years to work its way out of your system. ARGH!!!!!! It's like six of one and half dozen of the other. "Hey, thumbs up! You're not going to die. YAY! But, oops! You ARE going to have uncontrollable crap attacks until you do. BOO!"

The danger is that it can also be a "marker" for bigger issues, which have not yet been diagnosed (and - probably/hopefully - will not be because they do not exist). ANYWHO, I'm on massive doses of antibiotics and other goodies starting today, more tests in two weeks, then we'll see what's up (or out, as the case may be).

Wish me luck!
