Guest guest Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 Well my husbands SMA leading off his abdominal Aorta is a dissection tear that is incidental. which is good. He had both scopes showed he had a hietial Hernia too. next to his Barret's remaining the same and his diverticulitis too. so he is still losing weight why we don't know. His TSH keeps going up and his Blood sugar is in normal low range so the PCP wont do anymore diabetic testing cause it is in the normal low range when his mom all his uncles and aunts on his m om side had it on his dads side his grandma and his 3 cousins. why Medicare wont pay for the sugar tolerance test or the sugar test they do in the lad over 5 hours which i think is stupid. he feels OK but losing weight now down to 144 in 4 months lost from 160 to 14 without even trying Me I have seen Dr e at Pain management who studied under Dr Staud from UF in Gainesville : he told me he would do trigger point injections within 2 weeks. well all of a sudden Dr e left and now waiting to go get them.every time I call i get the royal runaround after I saw the new pain management Dr. going to curves 3 days a week i d stretch in am and got here and stretch allot some days I do the machines some days I don't. b t I think it heps except that night i am kind of sore & next day too but only go 3 days a wk at the advice of my new pain management Dr who I want to kick in the rear end. when I told him i knew my own body and when something is up he told me I cannot for I am not a Dr. whoa I told him i do and if he doesnot believe me just ask my PCP, Nero-endocrine and cardiologist he was quiet then. b ut now still a waiting to get then trigger point injections wait and wait I will calla gain on Monday talk to someone else let them know I didn't get my appointment yet. but between hubby going to Dr and now we have no Dr appoints till Oct 16th I am relieved. I can spend time here too with members of a great group. I am doing OK but need to look for something for Anixity some days I need it some days I don't.I am really concerned about my hubby's weight ,loss all the scans pet X-rays and scopes showed all was well except what i put above. But will be back later. Heidi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
