Looks like you need to move near me. Houses you can afford, school in walking distance, huge yard, and well, ME.

You asked about the organ under your right rib, and I'm no doctor, but! have you considered that it might be your appendix? Not sure how that would (or would not) affect your eye or foot, but sharp stabbing pains on your right side sounds like an appendix about to burst. Given how you've felt lately, it wouldn't be surprising, assuming yours is still intact. ?? Best of luck with the doctor today, let us know how it goes. I'll be checking back with ya. {{hugs}}

Your gallbladder is under your ribs on your right side. It can cause extreme pain. Have it checked out.

I agree with aims. Bring it up at the doctor's office. Have them check it, and do some bloodwork for inflammation.

Hope you're feeling better soon. Do what you feel like you have to do with your blog. It's your blog, and if you don't feel right about blogging what's going on, it's your call.

But I'll miss you if that's what you decide to do.

-H

That organ under your ribs on the right side would be your gallbladder. I had to have mine out about 9 years ago.

geez in a neighborhood like that, no wonder you have Blurry Eye and Numb Foot! i think you need a vacation, followed by a move out to the east coast where you could probably buy a mansion for what you pay for your house!

checking it out is the best advice one could give. i don't think we should add to the concern by guessing what her medical condition is.

On the bright side, Y, at least you didn't BUY that house in that neighborhood back when it was reasonable.
HOpe you are feeling better soon.

It is the gallbladder. I should know because I had trouble with mine for two years straight and dumped (lol) over 100 pounds because of it. But then again I started off weighing 236 pounds and ended up at the end before I got it taken care of weighing 105. I had to take care of it cause I couldn't eat and I was losing weight like crazy, and now I'm back up to 120 and have stayed that way for four years so all is well and good with me, but yes your gallbladder. Have it checked :)

Could be gallbladder.

Had mine out about 4 months ago, but there was no "It's hurts here and there" it was more of a "slap your fucking mama,. this bitch under the right tit is fucking eating through me" kinda pain so i'm not so sure it would be your gall bladder.

Whatever it is- have it checked out! Thats your best bet!

OY! That sounds very stressful. I thought you might have gotten a break from the noise since they moved the party across the street from my house Saturday night in all its bass pounding glory.

When the parents are gone, the kids will play. It went on until 4 a.m. I feel your pain.

Be sure to get your blood work done, and since you have pretty good insurance maybe ask for an MRI of some sort. You've been having too many problems in the last few months for them not to take a more serious look.

The house next to me is for sale. Please be my neighbors?

Hmm, it sounds like your liver or maybe a lung. So nothing nonessential. Don't panic! But if the doctor tries to tell you it's "stress," kick him in the nuts and GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM.

Hmmm, being pregnant is like being stoned - total disconnect between what I think and what I type. I am fairly sure I meant to either say "nothing essential" or "totally nonessential," thus bringing levity to what seems like a serious concern. But alas, I am stoopid.

Aw, man. Even when you're down, you make me laugh like an idiot.

Time to move to Texas, kid.

i'm sorry, Y.

i'm trying to be concerned for you. i want you to feel better. i wish you didn't have that weird pain thing under your rib.

but all i can think about is the double ended dildo, the "3 Men and a Maybe" videos, which, of course, don't matter to the story, but A-HAHAHAHAHAHAH.

appendix? gallbladder? dildo that went up too far?

haha. also, tanya is right, texass needs you. you need the sweat. the sweat is good for you.

also, who sent those emails because i am mean and pregnant and need to kick butt.

appendix? Liver, too.

It's ok if you guys aren't all "Aw, feel better". I WANT YOU TO LAUGH WITH ME.

Or at me, whichever. Because, I'm? Fine.

aaawww Y i feel for you.....wish i had some advice

and through it all you still keep laughing...and keep us laughing....dear lord when you started talking about your note ....hahahahahhahaha oh dear!!!!!

i hope you get things sorted out soon...my thoughts are with you

hahahahahaha...The Blurry Eye With Shooting Pain.
If you lived next door to my house, you'd want to call the CPS and cops on us because we yell so much. But, we keep it down after dark, afterall, people have to sleep! And we don't have any double sided dildoes or hermaphradite movies laying about. We like to keep that kind of stuff to ourselves. hehehe

I DO NOT GET all this "sounds like lung..liver..gallbladder...heart...brain...leg...foot...thumb..etcetcetcyadayadayadayougetthepointfercrissake.

Why would ANYBODY tell anybody else it sounds like your essential/nonessential whatever? I mean it's bad enough to google your own damn symptoms as it is, and trust me, I've done that and nearly killed myself with worry because whatever you DO google you have cancer, if you get my point. But to now read half a million other probabilities from people that have never even SEE the other person, well, sorry for my twelve unasked for cents, but this is just crazy. You're already unnerved as it is; you already said that, and it seems to me the WORST thing you could be doing is reading what a bunch of other, albeit well-intentioned, people have gone through and then it's going to translate into one more thing you probably have.

Holy shit. After reading the last few threads even I am beginning to feel sick.

Vickie, it's ok. I've already thought the VERY WORST POSSIBLE THING. Nothing anyone here can say will freak me out anymore. I asked for it, by asking what the organ underneath my rib is. It's allllll good. But I don't want you to feel sick now! lol

They may be right though, doctor has ordered an ultrasound of my gullbladder and ordered lab work to check my liver function!

I'VE NEVER BEEN MORE EXCITED ABOUT HAVING TESTS DONE ON MY BODY!

First of all, what's a tweaker??

Second, please don't stop the blog. We would miss you terribly.

Third, I think its time to move.

No shit, Vickie. This madness has to stop. Talk about getting people worked up. Unless anyone on this thing has a MD and has actually gave Y a physical and a battery of tests, I don't think they're qualified to diagnose her. Concern is one thing, causing chaos is another.

Next thing you'll hear, aliens took over her body all because someone Googled it.

1. herpes
2. AIDS
3. cancer

I'm in the L.A. area too, and I have to admit that this weather is very comforting to my depressed self. Its like a warm cozy blanket wrapped around me. The sunshine was making me feel sad that I don't feel well enough to go outside.

Anyway, I've been not feeling fantastic either lately and I have been totally getting the "shut up you faker" and "shut up please god make her stop" vibe from family lately. All you can do is work on getting better, and sounds like you are doing that.

Why is it that we think the worst is what the doctors will say? I'm that way too. It this what everyone does?

I feel your pain. Seriously. Feel. It. Okay, not exactly where you have it, but still...pain.

Anyway, the heartbreak of psoriasis is similar to tweaking? Heh.

Don't go. I like whining. If whining wasn't allowed, I wouldn't have a blog.

You take nice pictures.

By the way, you should consider moving to a cooler climate. In Minnesota, the fall is beautiful and in the winters you have snow. People don't cut each other in the winter...too cold. Murder rate drops dramatically. Everyone is too busy cuddling to keep warm.

i hope you feel better. i really, really do. i wish there was something i could do. is there anything i can do? if i was closer, i would totally babysit the kids so you and tony could go out [me=high qualified, fun nanny/aupair]. or get drunk with you [me = high qualified in that field as well]. whichever you'd prefer... also, minnesota IS beautiful :)

As I said the other day Y, you should really consider a Chiropractor.
Your numb foot could be a pinched nerve in your lower back or your hip area from holding Gabby or just from twisting or turning the wrong way.
Just try it.

Y-
Have ya'll ever thought of moving-
not just moving out of that neighborhood, but moving out of Cali?

I hear Cali is $$$$$$$ to live there?

Have ya'll ever given it any thought?

Just wondering...........

I'm gonna have to go with gallbladder too. the appendix is much lower on the body, in your intestinal area (I have several scars from that one). my mom had her gall bladder taken out several years ago after having several very bad gall bladder attacks. I think it's a fairly simple test to see if it's functioning correctly.

Hey Y

(like you need this)

The house next to us is for rent, and I'm pretty sure it's bigger / cheaper than many in Cali; there are lots of jobs here (lowest unemployment in Tejas) and get this: not only is the liquor store within walking distance, but this place has a HOT TUB on the patio.

PLEASE come be my neighbor, I've been wanting to use that hot tub ever since they installed it (you know, it's all about ME)

Well first of all, the organ under your right rib is your liver. You could be having gall bladder attacks. When I was having them, I felt like someone was killing me with a dull hot knife. Ask for an ultrasound of your gallbladder.

As far as shutting down your blog, please dont. You need a place to talk about what is going on. A place to vent and get support.

I too live with chronic pain. It is hard. You learn to cope, but it is a day to day thing.

Feel free to write if you want to. I'm a great listener. I've been where you are sweetie. (hugs)

Ben, if she moves to Texas, SHE IS MOVING NEXT DOOR TO ME.

Please DONT stop this blog! We all LOVE YOU!

No need to point out mistakes, it's how you feel and how you wrote it at the time.
I really am hoping you feel better. Been there done that, and I hope the doctors can pinpoint the shitty pains so you can feel whole again.
And you SHOULD write the neighbors that note, and stick it on the RV... write it on POSTER BOARD.
Feel better Y.

Oh and another note... on the pain. It sounds like your gall bladder, I had serious pains in that area when I needed mine taken out. Do you have sharp shooting pains in your shoulders as well? Another sign.
Ask them to check that out.

i know it sucks to move, but i have to tell you that there is the cutest little boy living next door to me that would be PERFECT for miss gabby :)
besides, your boys could sled and snowboard and ice skate/hockey, build real snowmen, and have a snowball fight! AND it's really warm in the summer too!! there would be really cool jobs here for tony and we could hang out and you'd have a babysitter!! with references even!! AND i know cpr and first aid!! and i have child care classes! and experience. and i'm not 15 ;)

Dang! That's a little to much hard partying for my taste. We need you in the great state of Texas. There's a nice 2 story rental right down the street from me. Quiet neighborhood. Close to schools. Lots of kids running around. Nice neighbors. Hey, these people should pay me a fee for pitching their house. :)

Glad to hear that they've order tests on your liver and an ultrasound for your gallbladder. Sounds pretty logical, all in all...I know far too many young people who've had to have their gallbladder removed. Luckily, for most people, it's a simple laproscopic outpatient surgery. Not that you'll need that...wait to see what the docs say.

Don't know what that'd have to do with the blurry eye and foot pain though. I agree with whomever said to check out a chiropractor. They seriously can help you get your spine and thus other things in order again. Think of it like a garden hose...if it's kinked off somewhere, it can't work properly. Your nerves are like that. If you're subluxated and your nerves are being pinched in any way, they can transmitt and receive signals properly. I know it'd kept me healthy for quite a while now. Most insurance companies will cover at least a few visits, too. :)

Good luck!
