    Hey guys! Its been a while but I felt like I needed to finally tell you what I have been keeping a secret for almost a month! (Its not a baby😅) I feel like I am super anxious in this video, my voice seems really timid for some reason, and I'm sorry about that! I am still feeling under the weather but I will be sure to film and get out videos whenever I can! Love ya💖

      Check your food and drink. If you are having too much Xylitol, it can set off IBS problems severely!
      You might try an elimination diet, and get your gall bladder out before it fails. A gall bladder failure is MORE PAINFUL than childbirth!

    Best packing tip (military family so we move a lot) is color coded tape on the boxes! One color per room plus labels on 3 sides and it makes unloading and unpacking so much easier! I personally love the idea of packing and moving content because I love seeing people set up their homes

      We used a similar system!! My husband and I were moving into our house when I was 6-7 months pregnant (with twins) and on bed rest. To help our crew of family and friends help us the most, we used stickers. We used one color circle for each of the three rooms on our first floor and two stickers for the rooms directly above the first floor rooms. One sticker- first floor, two stickers -second floor; but our house isn't a complicated layout .

    Have you ever thought about donating some of the old unopened boxes to a women's shelter? Having a box of surprises to open after they check in could do A LOT for lifting spirits.
    One of my best friend's wives passed away a few years ago and she had a marvelous makeup collection he didn't know what to do with. He got a hold of the local shelter and they were able to take all of it. Now he sets up donation drives every year in her memory.
    Just something to consider if you're looking for an alternative to moving them to their next house 😉

    My sister-in-law just had her gallbladder removed yesterday! She went in to the ER in the morning with really bad chest/upper abdominal pain, but all the heart tests came back fine so they did an ultrasound and found several large gallstones. Since she'd been at the hospital for a few hours at that point and hadn't eaten anything since the night before, the doctor said it would be best to just go into surgery and take out her gallbladder, so they did that and she was home by 9 o'clock last night😳 It was quite a whirlwind of a day for her!

I woke the next morning at 4am with nausea and in pain so severe we thought heart attack, and I had to be taken by ambulance. My gallbladder was also severely infected and had to be removed. No issues and can eat anything since then. I had just had twins 3 months prior, and strangely 5 people I know who had twins also had to have their gallbladder removed within a year of having the twins. I never had any issue with my gallbladder through my singleton babies prior.

    Congratulations! I hope it all works out with the house. I do want to let you know I've worked in flooring for like 20 plus years. LVP is excellent flooring. Depending what the original owners put in some are waterproof, they are scratch resistant, better sound quality, and amazing when you have pets. But, if you don't like the color, you don't like it. I love real wood but it is very expensive and is vulnerable to water and scratching. I encourage you to look at some LVP options. The is a line under the name Audacity that is beautiful.

At least everything waited until our descent before it decided to come out. I thought it was the worst flu ever so instead of going to the hospital first, I went home and spent the next 12 hours expelling everything in my body and then ended up in the hospital and had my gallbladder out the next day .

    Chiming to also say your gallbladder is the likely culprit, and unfortunately once you start getting such bad attacks it's unlikely for it to resolve on its own.

Some foods don't quite digest/go through the same as they used to but overall I am a lot better.

And my doctor said so long as you keep on a lower fat diet after a few weeks you can have a more normal diet and I followed those instructions and I’ve had no issues at all.

    my nana had the exact same illness as this! she had gall stones and she eventually got it taken out, it’s been a couple of years and she is doing really well and feels exactly the same as she did before. she doesn’t necessarily eat many fatty foods and she did have to cut out wine and a few other things but it really was a good ending. wishing you a speedy recovery and sending love xx

    I had my gallbladder removed last year and it made such a positive difference in my life. My main issues was NOT with fatty foods, but with greens and acid foods. The last year before removing my gallbladder I couldn’t eat anything with tomatoes (no pizza 🍕😢), salads and any green veggies had to be fresh or it would trigger an attack. If you’re having gallbladder issues and this is having a negative impact on your health and life: meet with a specialist and if it is the issue, HAVE IT REMOVED. Since removing my gallbladder I can eat as I used to (fatty and non-fatty foods), yet I get fuller faster and can’t keep eating after that point (not a negative in my opinion). Hope this helps anyone contemplating. Cheers 🥂 from Canada

    Omg! Your illness symptoms match mine exactly except mine escalated to add EXTREME pain! I was also worried about taking out an organ lol. I decided to keep my gallbladder for another three months and I regretted it so much!. Just get the gallbladder out. Your life will be better. And I still eat lots of fatty foods, I just go to the back and a lot sooner. 🤷🏼‍♀️

    To echo heaps of other people, prior to you saying anything about gallstones, I was thinking that was the culprit. I had the same symptoms before having my gallbladder removed - and the surgery (like 11 years ago) I haven't had any issues. Surgery wasn't terrible, week or so recovery and honestly worth it to have that horrible pain gone

    Gallstone cleanse:
    (I usually do this about every 6-8 weeks as I’m very prone to getting gallstones!)
    Drink 32 oz Apple juice each day for 6 days (this softens the stones for easier passing)
    On the 6th day eat nothing after 6pm.
    At 6pm take 1 tbs epsom salt in 6 oz of water
    At 8pm take 1 tbs epsom salt in 6oz of water
    10pm drink mix of 4 oz olive oil with 4 oz lemon juice
    (Be prepared by staying near a restroom on day 6! Trust me!)

    I had very similar symptoms that lasted for over 10 years - had my gall bladder removed, which made absolutely no difference. Turns out my very real symptoms were caused by stress and anxiety, and didn't disappear until I moved away from the situation that was causing the stress. Doctors don't seem to know enough about how stress/anxiety causes serious physical symptoms. Don't give up until the doctors help with your symptoms!

    Hi Alexandria,
    I have had my gall bladder removed. I don't eat fatty foods like I used to. It has its consequences if you do. I have gallstones that moved into a duct in my body, those had to come out too. I had mine taken out in 2020 after being sick for almost two years not realizing what was wrong, until a visit to ER.
    If you need surgery I am keeping you in my prayers, mine was emergency surgery so if you can have surgery planned I'm sure everything will go more smoothly.

    I’d definitely recommend looking into your gallbladder, and trust me if they say sludge don’t let them talk you out of looking further. Sludge is still a problem, can turn into stones, can still block the duct, and can stick around for ages. And don’t let any doctor tell you that you don’t fit the 3 F’s (fat, female, forty) I was 19 and 69kg when my issues started (I had to get my mum to help me get the ultrasound I needed because no doctor would listen to me, but they listened to her because she’s a nurse). I had my gallbladder out 9 years ago and I only struggle with spicy food, which I can deal with. Plus I recovered really quickly from the surgery.

    I’ve also recently started seeing a Dr (just turned 40, it’s the first time I’ve seen a Dr in like 25 years? I don’t get sick, so no need to, right?) but she ran me thru the gauntlet w tests man.

Must have been a fire sale on kale, it was in the eggs, salads, soups, sauces. Continued with kale in a salad 3 or 4 times a week and no worries. I stopped a few times and went back to same problems. Kale really is a super food. Lol

    I had to have an emergency gallbladder removal and an ERCP to remove two stones from my common bile duct in 2005, one month after I had given birth to my son. My gallbladder was packed full of stones, close to bursting. If I hadn't gone in when I did, I may not be here, I hadn't realized how sick I was. The pain was horrendous, this building pressure near my sternum that got so bad I'd throw up. When I was pregnant I blamed it on baby, it was just him pressing on something. Had a lot of issues throughout pregnancy but Dr never caught any issues. Supposedly did an ultrasound of gallbladder just weeks before I went in and saw nothing.
