I have never in my life gone this long eating so little.  It's not entirely that I don't want to - I'm getting weak.  But, I haven't really got an appetite (not like I'm used to - "hungry" for me is a cranky-ass thing I experience about every four hours where I want to knock something down and kill it).  And I'm scared of eating.  There's a very tender spot just below where my ribs come together, a little to the right.  I had a yogurt, today.  Other than that, fruit juice and herbal tea.  And water. 

Tomorrow morning, if it still hurts, I'm going to a doctor.

... D: I hope it's nothing serious.

I'm hoping it's just constipation, but I can say without a doubt that it's far and beyond the worst case I've ever had.

But just to help the matter, my co-workers have regaled me with tales of things that have happened to them which started out with similar symptoms. Did you know that sometimes your intestines can spontaneously tie themselves in knots? With really amazingly disgusting/horrific consequences. One of my co-workers had that happen to her, and she barely survived it.

That's not good, but better than having worse, I guess.

Oh ew D: Didn't know that. The worse thing that's happened to me is a really nasty case of food poisoning that gave me chills and a fever, so I was bedridden and couldn't eat much for a couple of days.
