Just a Girl with GP

Description

My name is Kelsey and I live in Ohio. This blog is meant to be a documentation of my life with moderate idiopathic gastroparesis - a stomach condition I was finally diagnosed with in January of 2012, after 10 months of being chronically ill. Not only is gastroparesis an "invisible illness," but so little is understood about the disorder, especially by the general public. So many people out there don't even know what gastroparesis is, not to mention what it's like living with gastroparesis every day. Well, this blog is my attempt to archive my own experience, to raise awareness, to reach out and to do my part to help people understand.

My stomach is holding me hostage

theonceandfuturepackmom:

Not eating = Stomachache & really hungry

Eating = Stomachache & Nausea 

Eating only a little = Stomachache & still hungry

Eating a lot = Stomachache & bloated feeling

Drinking diet soda = Stomachache & jittery from caffeine 

Drinking just water = Stomachache & tired from lack of caffeine

Don’t drink anything = Stomachache & really fucking thirsty

I give up, stomach, just give me a list of demands so you can stop holding me hostage please.
