Ok seriously
What the fuck is wrong with my stomach?
It's now going on 4 weeks with more or less continual diarrhea, whereas I've never had it last much more than ~24 hours, just long enough for things to get settled back to normal.
The nighttime stomach migraines have been random for years, so I've always just put up with them same as my regular migraines. I really should start tracking them, because it just seems like it used to only be 2-3 per year, but it's starting to get to 1 every 1-2 months. Strangely enough, this negatively correlates with me having fewer and fewer head migraines over the past couple of years. Maybe my body has just decided to trade one ill for another.
Right now though, I can't go a single meal without my stomach churning and gurgling in protest. My mood recently hasn't helped matters any. I'm resisting a visit to my doctor for as long as I can. If I start to notice weight loss, massive fatigue*, or of this doesn't cut it out come say Thanksgiving time, then I'll make an appointment with my doctor. I hate the idea that this is all just stress-induced, but that would beat any potential alternative.
*Lack of sleep doesn't help, but I can tell the difference between just being tired and OMG lifting my arm feels like a chore.
