congratulations! to everyone that is starting in january!
i'm so excited to meet everyone-please introduce yourself!
:groupwelcome:
So, for the last several months or so, I've been experiencing significant abdominal pain pretty much every time I try to eat anything. Over the Christmas holiday, I went to the doctor to have some testing done and I finally got the results.
I'm allergic to Blueberries, Lemons, Corn, Tomatoes, Mushrooms, Cashews, Dairy products (including cow's milk, yogurt, cheddar cheese, cottage cheese and swiss cheese), Eggs (Whites and yolks), Brewer's yeast, Black pepper, Gluten, Safflower, Soybeans, and Wheat.
I'm sensitive to Asparagus, Lima beans, Broccoli, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Eggplant, Ginger, Grapes, Lamb, Malt, Oat, Peas, Peanuts, Chili Pepper, Potatoes, Rye, and Sesame.
Right now, I feel pretty overwhelmed. I know it isn't the end of the world, but so many of my favorite things to eat are on that list! I'm trying to look at this as the chance to have new culinary adventures ... but it doesn't always work. However, I am looking forward to feeling better after I manage to make all these diet modifications!
oh Jaxia---I am sorry to hear that you have so many allergies. I would love to be allergic to some foods, then maybe my ass wouldn't be so big! OK
I'm sure you are relieved that they were able to find the source of your ABD pain-I know you will stay positive and make the most of it.
will a few spoonfuls of things cause you pain or will you still be able to enjoy a couple of bites??
It was cool seeing you there - the boards are very quiet....I've been studying all day (since I got home from orientation). Jaxia runs VERY late to any lecture lol. There aer some irritating people in 3rd semester that I need to get the dish about from you...I won't be there this Wednesday as I have an echocardiogram stress test (didn't even know that was possible lol). Good luck studying....

NO Yang, I won't know until the 10th.
I have just decided to be HAPPY and excited about the year no matter what happens.
ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING.
I had jutte and we finished our clinicals 3 weeks before the semester was over. We had orientation at the hospital the first week of school along with the peds seminar---that first week was a hectic week.
Just a few more days of relaxation---everyone enjoy!
