Doctor's visit No. 1

It went just fine except for the needles and all the poking around on my stomach. Tomorrow is visit No. 2 ... the ultrasound. I'm actually kind of excited about that - why, I don't know. But it doesn't involve sharp objects, so I'm happy!

The doctor thinks I've either got gallbladder issues or my liver is inflamed from the stomach virus I had back in August. The bloodwork/ultrasound should determine which it is. I'm pulling for the inflamed liver because it sounds like it won't require anything too frightening!
