Steph's Headches Solved!

So i've been in and out of the doctors all week trying to find the reason i have chronic headaches. On Wed. i took a blood test where they made me drink sugar water, basically it tasted like sprite, but no fizz, and 8 times more sweet! it was so gross, i havn't drinken 7up or sprite since! so in the course of five hours i had my blood drawn six times, which i have come to find i somewhat enjoy. (i might even take a phlebotomy course to become a phlebotomist, which would be cool till i get my degree). I have a cool bruise in a straight line in my arm cause the last person to take my blood was retarded and was jiggling the needle around in my arm! But i met with the Doctor on Friday and we went over the results together. Apparently i have an "overreactive pancreas" and am "pre-diabetic" so basically no more sugar for steph or i'll have diabetes in a few years! so the last few days i've been eatign healthier and guess what mom-i switched to DIET SODA!!! you should be so proud! i still think its not as good though, but i'll live. so since then the headaches have decreased so i think we may have found the culprit!

Ok. I will have to get tested as well for an overactive pancreas! We should probably all get tested for overactive pancreas's!
