Guest guest Posted March 21, 2000 Report Share Posted March 21, 2000 Hi Theresea, You wrote: Could he be shifting from the light/energy loss issue and focusing more on his germ issue? and would that result in less anxiety when interrupted in the ritual around energy loss? Yes, you are very insightful. This could well be the reason. I wrote about this last week, but often during E & RP the symptoms shift. The one thing you're working on gets better and then a few new things get worse. But eventually it all gets better so don't be discouraged. Take care, in San Diego Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 Well, well, well, Theresa, so good to hear from you! I am so happy the gastrectomy did the trick and you are well now. I remember how worried we all were when you were having such a tough time. I don't know whether you remember me, as you weren't posting a lot while I was on my journey. I had my GR-DS with Dr. K, November 7, 2002, have lost 124.5 pounds, have started back to work part time (after being off work for ten years), and have abundant energy. I am having a tummy tuck and hernia repair on February 10. You have done fabulously well, and I was happy to read you have the urge to go back to work. You HAVE been gone too long, and I hope you keep in closer touch! Hugs and blessings, Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 It is so good to hear from you. I remember you. I stopped to see you on what we all hope was your last stay in DRMC. And everyone has always spoken so kindly of you and your daughter - even tho they knew you were probably lurking out there somewhere! Your good health is something we all want to celebrate! Bobbe - <95 pounds> [but who's counting?] If you can dream it... you can do it! God, give me the dream that you planned for my life. (Don't postpone joy.)

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Welcome to our group. YOu are obviously very well experienced in advocating and researching for yourself - that will serve you VERY well with achalasia as it's very rare and you have to do some digging to get what you want. You have taken a huge step in finding us - we have a collective knowledge that is truly amazing and experience that combined reaches into the thousands of years!! You are fortunate in that you have several really respected, experienced doctors in your general area. Check out Dr. Richter who is a GI at Temple in Phillly. Dr. Rice is a surgeon at the Cleveland Clinic or my surgeon, Dr. Luketich who is head of the heart, lung and esophageal surgery center at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. Dr. L just did my esophagectomy on Jan. 11th, the nurses and staff are great. Good luck and keep reading and posting here - we're happy to help. Take Care, - in NC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
