    Dr just called gallbladder liver pancreas are all fine and normal but the saw calcium in his kidney.  So now he needs a CAT scan and blood work to figure out why. Of course  I  am fighting  the urge to google and intrusive thoughts. I haven't the slightest idea of what calcium in a kidney means. The dr said its something worth addressing now because  as he gets older it can cause kidney  disease. My son is 22

    Sooo the ER jumped on the covid bandwagon. And put him on a 2 WK bedroom quarantine. They pretty much didn't pay the gallstone possibility any mind. All of his labs were excellent. And he had no temp. So now we wait for the covid results. I have a standing Tuesday appt via phone with my therapist. Needless to say I had to do an emergency session today

    Food poisoning possibly? I know how bad the anxiety is with ourselves, but so much more intense when it's about the kids. Hugs. Keep us updated if you don't mind.

    Hi all I just dropped my son and husband off at the ER my son is 22 and has been super gassy, heaving up stomach acid, and throwing up off and on since this morning it comes and goes. I am suspecting gallbladder. He at some takeout Monday night and has been crappy since. Of course this has my OCD knocking on the door of my mental hamster wheel. Is anyone who can offer calming advice. Oh and PS I our 16yr old daughter had oral surgery today. Top 2 wisdoms out with anesthesia. So I am nursing on her as well.

    Everything has now reopened as of today despite cases and deaths still on the rise. I brought up my worries in another group and was attacked for being "political". Absolutely unreal. 

    You were attacked here on this site?

    Here in Maryland, there is a mandate where you must where masks when entering a business establishment or face up to a year in prison or a $5,000 fine. Last night I was in Walgreens briefly and two people in there 20's were walking around without face coverings. This is an example of why the virus will be around longer as people don't listen and don't care about others and even themselves. 

    So true I see so many with no masks on just LA LA land in the streets

    I live in a very small city, population 14,000. In the last week we went from 0 to 600 cases. I have stayed in as much as possible and I’m super cautious but I’m freaking out. It’s spreading like fire here and seems unavoidable. Due to my asthma and BT, I have to go get tested tomorrow along with the hubby to make sure we are not a-symptomatic carriers. My biggest anxiety trigger is feeling stuck or trapped, the last 5 weeks have been pure hell 😒 just needed to vent  

    I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe!

    I hope everything turns out in your favor. It really feels like we are living in a sci fi movie that won't end
