I have been really tired this week. Monday night started off with one of my most painful epicsodes. It started out with that full feeling I have been experiencing with the slight pain at the top of my abdomen right below my sternum. This was about 5 in the evening, by 6 the pain had moved to the upper right quadrant of my abdomen and the pain increased and kept steady until 3:30 am. At that time I got up to use the bathroom and pretty much got rid of everything in my system along with that I had that head to foot heat that I felt last month (not quite as intense). When this was passed (about 30min) the pain had subsided to almost nothing. I went back to sleep and slept most of Tuesday. I still am not feeling very energetic. When I am laying in bed or asleep I don't have any pain and it makes me just want to stay there. But I know I can't do that. I talked to Madison on Tuesday and no one else on the study is having this side effect. It could be the octreotide causing it, because it happens about one week after I get the shot.
I really think I need a pain pill, but the doc said to take tylenol, I don't think she realizes that I was moaning in severe pain for about six hours with this. I was ready to take anything for it. We will see.
No other side effects to post at this time. Next month will be the real tell, I will get my ct scan and we will see what has been going on with the sites on my liver.
