Lifestyle: December 2024 Wrap Up
What Happened in December
Another year is over and a new one has just begun. Unfortunately I didn't have a great ending or start in terms of my health but there was some good stuff mixed in too. I guess it's all about looking for the positives.
Although I was in pain for most of it, I did enjoy my Christmas with family and friends. I hope that however you celebrated the holiday season, you had a good one.

Welcome to my December 2024 wrap up!
Here's a break down of what I got up to this month:
Wrapping Up December: What Happened This Month
Hair
Health
Like I said, health-wise I'm a mess. If you read my November wrap up you'll already know I was having a lot of abdominal pain. Well, it got worst. I was sent to the hospital for urgent recovery. Turns out it was acute cholecystitis mixed with some other problems.
I'm still struggling with those other problems. I have a rare diverticulosis of the colon and chronic gastritis plus some other issues. I'm going to be having more tests done this week and then I'm back to the hospital to try and work out solutions. It's all a bit complicated at the moment.
As I'm struggling to eat and suffering from nausea and vomitting I've lost about 6kg over the past month. Sleeping is difficult due to pain too which means I'm feeling very weak in general.
I'm hoping that the new team of doctors that have taken my case will be able to put everything together and give me some quality of life back. As someone who constantly wants to be doing things, not being able to do anything is also starting to get to me.
As I've been suffering with my health for so long and have so many different issues I never seem to be able to get to the bottom of it all. Each time they deal with the current major problem at the time (which is good don't get me wrong) but never actually manage to put it all together and get to the cause.
At this point I'm pretty sure a lot of it is connected. I just need the doctors to connect all the dots and work out how to deal with it. Not an easy task I know, especially when the words 'rare' and 'complicated' seem to be thrown around a lot when discussing my situation.
My hope is that 2025 will be the year I finally get answers and solutions. Health is so important.
