I have had a tummy ache for the last two weeks. It comes and goes. At times it is so bad it has me doubled over in pain and other times I am totally fine. I finally got fed-up and went to the doctor yesterday expecting them to say it is nothing. They ran a barrage of tests, blood, urine, and x-rays. I expected nothing to come back odd so it was a little bit of a shock when my blood results were a little off. You have type white blood cell called an eosinophil. A normal count is 0-5% but optimal is 2.5% for an adult. I was a little shocked to see mine was 19.1%. The doctor said anything over 20% is really high so I am essentially really high. Eosinophilia can be to due to many different things but there two main causes; asthma (which I don’t have), and a parasite. EWWWWW!!!!!!!! I left the office with what you see below so I can “check” for parasites… #FML
oh thank goodness it’s not because of twizzlers
LOL I needed that!
shoulda had Red Vines instead for sure 😉
Another great reason to go Vegetarian!!
Doing my samples at home sure was interesting that’s for sure. My sister walked into the bathroom when I was umm scooping the “specimen” into the container and totally freaked out. In all defense I had the door closed!
First one went well!! Two more to go! Hope you are feeling better!
Thanks, it’s been a good last couple of days!
