swingchickiegot majorly sick again yesterday. the morning started out great, i had breakfast and then walked down the street to get a facial... the air was warm and rainy, and everything just smelled great, so between that and the pampering i was in an awesome mood. in the afternoon the b.f. and i went to the mall, and grabbed lunch at a restaurant there... i had a diet coke, a burger with no bun, and a salad instead of fries. about 1/2 hour later, i started feeling like crap -- woozy, weak, wierd heartbeat, dry mouth. the only thing i can think of is that there was soy in my salad dressing, and it affected me like that (soy makes me extremely tired, but i've never had the other stuff along with it). went home and slept for an hour... when i woke up, not only was i still exhausted and really woozy, but my face was red and blotchy and i was burning hot. my body didn't calm down until about 9pm, 8 hours after i'd eaten lunch.
i'm calling my doctor tomorrow to get a referral to an allergist and/or gastroenterologist. i'm tired of feeling sick to my stomach, tired of not knowing if what i'm eating is going to send me lurching for the bathroom. i just want someone to give me a prescription, or tell me what foods to cut out for certain. i want to be healthy again. in the meantime, i'm really torn... supposed to go to brunch this morning with friends, but i don't want to risk it. i had to give up a karaoke night last night (dammit), so i really want to get out of the house... but i'm nervous about eating out again until i see my doctor.
as usual, still confused about the b.f. last week, when we had our big heart-to-heart, the discussion was pretty fatalistic... things like, "no matter what happens, i'll always love you" and "no matter how much we love each other, it seems like we're not meant to be together". yet yesterday, when i was saying that i wanted to save for a condo, he told me "well, hopefully things will work out for us, and i have some money saved to chip in". what??? *sigh*
