I got blood results back yesterday which told me I have inflamation of my liver and gallstones:( I am now nervously awaiting a scan to see what the treatment will be. I have been suffering terrible bouts of pain where I have actually passed out and had stupidly been blaming it on my IBS but of course its totally unrelated. This is a relief of course as I couldn't see how I was going to be able to stick this pain much longer. I am on a low fat diet and pain killers at the minute. No chocolate for me:(. But hopefully it will all be sorted soon. So onto my card!Its for a lady's friend who is starting a new teaching job in England. I got this lovely image at Karber Images, she is so lovely and very useful:)

Oh Pinky, I'm glad they've found out the cause of all your pain and that the treatment won't be too traumatic. Hugs xx

At least now the docs know what the problem is they can sort it and get you back on the chocolate! Gorgeous card Pinky. Love your colouring xx
Hi Pinky,
I am so sorry to hear that you are still in such pain. I hope they come up with some sort of answer soon because constant pain is so debilitating.
Your card is gorgeous. I adore the colours and the sweet image.
Take care,

Pinky, what a fab card. Sorry to hear your health news. Hopefully you won't have to wait long for your ultrasound scan. If it's an inflammed gallbladder and gallstones I certainly remember only too well the pain of a bout of cholecystitis is. I suffered when I was pregnant with my eldest son but they said it was the baby sitting near the spine and I then had to wait for six months after he was born to get a scan as I had to wait for my body to get to rights. Yes, a low fat diet will help if this is the problem. I was also advised not to have heavily spicy foods either. I now work for a General Surgeon who undertakes gallbladder operations so that is what he advises patients whilst they are awaiting surgery. Also try to keep stress levels to a minimum - not an easy one I know. I found a hot water bottle my best friend during bad bouts. Thinking of you and take care. Kym xxx
TG they found out what it is and they can now get it sorted for you, take it easy, beautiful card and lovely image.
