911 - DeLarla goes to the Emergency Room

I've had horrible pains in my lower right abdomen. It started as a light pinch a few weeks ago, but yesterday the pain was becoming unbearable. The kind of pain that takes your breath away. I made an OBGYN appointment for next week, but yesterday my friends freaked me out thinking it could be an ovarian cyst, an eptopic pregnancy or a gallbladder attack. The more I fretted, the worse the pain got.

I ran to Urgent Care and had a pelvic exam. Diagnosis = GAS.

What a dork. I had a glass of wine and farted so I'm fine now. Thought you'd all enjoy a good laugh.

You need to change your name to Drama Queen or Comedy Queen one. You are too much, I usually get that gas pain on my left side. Have you tried that Gas-X yet, LOL?

I would have tried Gas-X if someone would have suggested gas!

I had the same fierce pains on the left side the day after surgery. You should have seen the look on the Urgent Care doctor's face as I tried explaining there's a tube shoved in my abdominal wall and "I SWEAR, that's not what's causing this evil pain."

Delarla~ Next time try Gas -X first or just drink the wine first.

ROFLMAO TOO! Did you know it hurts to laugh after you get your gallbladder removed. LAUGHTER IS THE BEST MEDICINE THANKS!!!

Lisa- that sucks!!!

The first time I had a gas attack I thought I was having a baby. And I hadn't had sex in like a year, so I thought maybe I was the next Virgin Mary. Yeah right...God's gonna pick me to be Mom to his next kid.

Now when I get it I take the Gas X chewables and lie in a fetal position singing "you are my sunshine" and breathing like I am in labor until it goes away.

Megan! I think you have made me hurt my self laughing. I might have to go to the emergency room if you all don't stop making me ROFLMAO!! I sure hope this glue they used on my incisions holds up!!! HAHAHA!!!!

Delarla~ I sure hope your feeling better know!!

Wow sweetie i'm so glad it was only gas and now that you 'relieved' yourself that your all better :D

OMG you crack me UP!!!! My kids came running when I started laughing hysterically, wondering what in the world...I said "I'm just laughing at this funny lady on the computer. She farted!" My 5 year old went "AAAAAAAAAhahahahahha"

So you guys understand the kind of pain I'm talking about? This ain't no cramping, this feels like lightening bolts slicing through my girly region. I couldn't stand up without grabbing onto the wall. So I got to blow a wad of dough and ruin my 3-day weekend. It's either hide in the closet in shame or laugh at myself! Who-da thunk that Gax-X would have worked?

Maybe next week I'll rush to the ER for a pimple.

Delarla~I sent hubby to do our taxes earlier so I could get on LBT.(PLUS HE HAS BEEN IN THIS HOUSE DRIVING ME CRAZY FOR 3 DAYS ABOUT EVERYTHING. I WAS TRYING TO GET SOME PEACE AND QUIET) Your right Delarla this is lots more fun!!

yeah, well, I'm supposed to be doing my pre-calc homework...

Can you say "work avoidance? I knew you could!"

several years back my screen name was XercesBlue and my older sister told me her new screen name: ButterflyBlue. I just about died laughing. We had basically chosen the same name! (the xerces blue was a type of butterfly)
