Hello, I have going through an extremely stressful time and thought I was handling it all quite well. I am now having a lot of internal pain, I had an ultrasound today that showed nothing worrisome in the prelininary report...waiting on actual report and bloodwork to show my liver enzymes, pancreas enzymes and CBC and sedimantation rate. I have also had very light stool (sorry if that's tmi but it's one of the symptoms I am having)and that's also the reason for the bloodwork and ultrasound. Could this be a flare?

So sorry to hear you are having a rough time of it. I can't say what is causing your pain, but here's the scoop on poop.
So far all of my tests are coming back normal...all my bloodwork and the ultrasound looked fine. She is thinking that it may be a virus..she doesn't think that it's Lyme b/c of the stool. She wants me to do another scan where they inject a nuclear dye into me to "test" my gallbladder to see if it's functioning properly. I really don't want to take that..so I asked if I could sit a few days and see if it's a virus and this passes. I feel a lot like I did when I was dealing with Lyme a year ago...I've been doing really well and have not had any serious symptoms in months. Until possibly now...

I do hope you are pooping prettier soon and won't need the test.
And I hope you are feeling better soon too!
I know there are some "bugs" going around that are weird. And some are taking 6 weeks to get over.
Glad you didn't nuke yourself yet. Good idea to give it a bit of time.
