Thanks, friends. I've added "see a dietitian" to my list of things for the doctor for when he comes by this morning.

I would have to put the pain level right up there with childbirth. I don't ever want to go through this again. I feel like I've had close to a full system reboot and it's a good time to make those hard-to-adopt dietary changes that I've been wanting to do, but haven't because I've been caving into cravings. Now, I hope can remember this level of pain and what caused it and use that as motivation to complete the healthy life transition.

Thanks for the love and support.
