I’ve(17f) been having stomach issues on and off for a few months including vomiting and diarrhea for minimum 30 minutes each time with intense stomach pain that debilitates me. I get pale and break out into cold sweats. My mother has seen me in this condition and repeatedly noted how pale I am. I went to my primary doctor and she ordered blood tests, I don’t remember all of it but I know it came back with my white blood cells and platelets being high, my hemoglobin normal, and my red blood cells small(?) not low count but I assume like the literal cells are small? I don’t really know what that means but the rest of it implicates my body is fighting an infection and that’s what my doctor thinks too. I would wait to ask her but my follow up won’t be until I give back a stool sample and I don’t quite know when I’m gonna poop again, I’m trying to ease my anxious worrying because my mind annoyingly goes to the worst case scenario and the words in my results “concern for bacterial or parasitic infections” didn’t help. My mom isn’t that concerned but I’m still very paranoid about it. Any ideas to mostly ease my mind but also if anyone has any other insights that’s welcome.
