Guest guest Posted March 24, 2002 Report Share Posted March 24, 2002 Hi , I'm sorry to hear you are having so many health issues right now. In reading your email, it occurred to me I had taken carafate before, and not paid that much for it. So, I found it at Costco and the generic price is $4.99. I'm not sure if it's the same one you've been using, but figured it' s worth looking at. I know I'm paying about $135 a month for prescriptions now, and try to save on any I can. http://www.costco.com/frameset.asp?trg=DrugInfo%2Easp & log= & rxbox= & fromscript =1 & qf= & srch=carafate & Drug=CARAFATE <http://www.costco.com/frameset.asp?trg=DrugInfo%2Easp & log= & rxbox= & fromscrip t=1 & qf= & srch=carafate & Drug=CARAFATE> Hope you feel better soon. Carol in Fl [ ] scope Hi Guys, I had the scope on Tuesday. It kind of knocked me down a little. Good news and bad news. Good new there is no scar tissue and everything is healing. But there is way too much bile in the pouch (stomach). If it is not controlled I will get an ulcer. The medicine carafate is so expensive 70.00 a bottle but I have to take it. I didn't expect to feel so bad after the scope. Saw the primary about the termination from worker compensation and he is going to call the rheumy. He doesn;t know if I still have the carpal tunnel or not but there is something wrong with my neck. I am so worried about all that is going on I can't sleep. I even lost two more pounds and I thought I was stabilizing. I can't believe one person could feel so bad. Hope I will know more on Monday. I did send for copies of the EMG'S I had done. Hope everyone is feeling well. Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2002 Report Share Posted March 25, 2002 Hi Kathy, I was glad to see your son is going with you on the IME. You should always have someone with you. They try to do a lot, I have even have them hurt me. I had a friend that happened to too. So make sure someone is with you as a witness.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2002 Report Share Posted March 25, 2002 Hi a, How are you feeling? Our weather is so strange. One day cold next spring. I love the warmer days the sun feels good. I am okay the scope just knocked me on my butt for a few days. I didn't expect that, the doctor told me it wouldn't happen. I think the weight loss is from not being able to eat all week. I really think on the whole my weight has stabilized. Eating is hard and I don't feel well a lot of the time after I eat but I am dealing with it. What has me so upset is the wc thing. The doctor told me, I will not be able to work. I was thinking if I loss my income maybe I could work at something. He was very negative about this plus this is just what wc would like to see me do. Social security is taking so long but at least there is suppose to be a caseworker on it. However I am believing nothing until it is on paper. I am waiting for the EMG test that I took a few years ago. I realize they are old but at least I have something in my hands when I see these new doctors. I know they will probably want to rerun the test. This has been such a hard seven years and now that wc wants to blame everything on the RA. I had the neck injury long before I had RA. I was told that the injury may have triggered the RA but that can't be proven. I never heard of carpal tunnel just going away on its own. Especially since my was caused from the neck problem. Oh well I have so much on my mind and then on top of everything this stomach thing. I stopped by were I used to work and they didn't know me when I walked in. I was so upset, once I spoke they knew me but what a shock. I know I have lost weight but this was upsetting. Anyway I hope you have a good day. Rain coming that won't be good for any of us. How you have a nice holiday. I am having my family over for dinner and egg hunt and dying with my granddaughter. You have all this to look forward too.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2002 Report Share Posted March 25, 2002 Lynn, It's so difficult to know what to say to you about all of your problems. Please know I care though. I am sad to think that you are so worried that you can't sleep. I'm happy the scope is over with and there is no scar tissue. Sorry that it set you back, but at least you didn't wind up in the hospital. I hope the Carafate can help you. Did the doctor have any theories as to why there is so much bile? On the WC and SS issues: I think you need a better lawyer. This stuff has been going on way too long and it doesn't sound like your lawyer is getting the job done. Do you know anyone in your area who has had success with a different lawyer? What about your doctors? Could they recommend an attorney for you? Surely they understand that all of this worry is absolutely no good for you. Many lawyers offer a free, short initial consultation. You could just get a feel for whether someone could help you more and faster. Your current lawyer is very slow to return your calls and these issues are years long now. I know it is a huge effort to switch lawyers and it would take lots of energy to track someone else down, but it may be worth it. Maybe your network of friends and family know of someone better. Don't forget to ask your physicians, too. It's very upsetting that nothing is getting done. And I don't know how anyone could expect you to work. I read your note to a. I'm sorry that you were upset by the fact that your former coworkers didn't recognize you. I'm sure that threw you. Maybe you could include " before " and " after " photos in your file for SS.

I'm glad you feel your diet is getting better. I just wish WC and SS would stop playing games. WC can try all they want to blame everything on RA. but your medical records will reflect that the RA didn't start until long after your CT and neck injury. I know the stress is tough.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2002 Report Share Posted March 26, 2002 Hi , It has been a long time, how are you doing?? Hope things are well for you and your kids. The primary told me there is so much bile because it is coming back up instead of going down. I didn't get to talk to the specialist on tuesday when she came in I was still out of it. I don't see her for 6 weeks. I am angry at my lawyer, I also feel he has let this drag out far too long. The problem is I have been with him for 7 years and owe him a lot of money. Plus he is entitled to 20% of any settlement. I just can't afford to leave him, I don't want to think what he would charge. Than I would have to pay another lawyer. As angry as I am with him, he has been kind to me. He is very honest but I want this over with. I feel he didn't keep on top of the ss. He should have known that it was going all over the place. But I have never been involved with a lawyer before so I don't know what other ones do. I just keep praying, plus I ask him if there is anything I can do to speed this up and he said no. Thank you for your advise you are always so helpful. I appreciate it, it is just such a difficult time for me. If I thought I could hold down a job I would give it a try. But the pain and fatigue are so bad, I just don't know. Hope you and the kids have a nice holiday. I think of you often.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2002 Report Share Posted March 26, 2002 Kathy, He should be in the room with you, if it is possible. You need a witness. They try to get you to raise your arms or bend or move around more than you are able too. They will try to force your arms to move more than they can, just stupid stuff. It had been my experience they are going to lie no matter what. That is what they get paid to do. Don't worry too much just be sure not to go alone. Remember no matter how this doctor acts he is NOT your friend.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2002 Report Share Posted March 26, 2002 Hi a, I hope you are right what a terrible time this is. , had very good advice but I am in debt to this lawyer. I can't afford another one. Sometime ago I did talk to a lawyer from a company that holds an insurance policy for me. I actually forgot about this but he said everything that could be done for ss was being done. I find fault with my attorney for not ending the wc situation sooner. I believe he could have but his theory is to let them come to us. Why should we go to them and I don't agree with that at this time. It has gone on far too long and I am so worried about the outcome. I don't know what I will do if I loss my income. I am trying so hard to trust God but it is so hard.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2002 Report Share Posted March 26, 2002 Hi, I didn't know till yesterday but the price I paid was for two bottles. The druggist was short a bottle and I didn't know it. But it is still expensive and the reason is I can only take the liquid. The GI specialist wants me to have as few pills as possible. I guess the liquid cost a lot more plus it taste terrible but it is better than an ulcer. Thank you for your help. Hope you day is going well.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2002 Report Share Posted March 26, 2002 What a horrible situation to be in. I don't know much about the procedures and legalities, but 7 years sounds so wrong. I would hate to think what would happen if you lost your income. I can understand WC dragging their feet for so many years, but not SS. I've never heard of SS taking 7 years. It's a bad situation because you can't fire your lawyer! Since he doesn't get anything until you do, I'd think he'd be anxious to end this case too. If you have an imcompetant lawyer, you have no recourse? Maybe it wouldn't hurt to just talk to another lawyer, one that specializes in wc and ss. At least you would know if you have any alternatives. I know it's hard to keep your faith when things are so down, but this is the time to rely the most on your faith. hugs, a 3/25/02 5:48:14 PM, Ruf-Caimi <ruf-caimi@...> wrote: > > > Date: Mon, 25 Mar 2002 20:48:14 -0500 > > From: Ruf-Caimi <ruf-caimi@...> > Subject:Re: [ ] scope > > > > > Hi a, > I hope you are right what a terrible time this is. , had very > > good > > advice but I am in debt to this lawyer.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2002 Report Share Posted March 28, 2002 Hi a, My attorney doesn't get paid until I do so you would think he would end this, but he hasn't. I am sorry it took me awhile to get back to your message. I was cleaning the other day and yesterday I was so tired I didn't do too much. I hate when that happens but it is something we all have to deal with. I don't know whatelse I can do to end this situation but pray. I am now with the help of my daughter in laws dad looking for new doctors for the neck and hand injury. He offered to help with this whole thing and I am taking him up on it. I am looking forward to this week end with my granddaughters. This will be you next year with your new grandchild. It is great and a lot of fun. Somehow you find the energy to do the things you want when it involves these beautiful grandchildren. Thanks for your note, hope you and are well today.

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2002 Report Share Posted March 31, 2002 Lynn, Yes, you'd think he's want to get paid for all the years of work. Don't worry about being slow to respond. My track record for responding hasn't been to great lately. With the weather being so nice, I've been trying to get outside more. I've been enjoying reading real books instead of the internet! I try to spend at least an hour a day outside in the fresh air and sunshine. I didn't get nearly as depressed this winter as I have in the past, and I think spending time outside helps. I'm glad you have help finding a doctor. I hope it helps your case. Enjoy your granddaughters! Easter isn't the same without little ones around. My only granddchild is so far away, but in a few months I'll have another one very close to home. I'm looking forward to spoiling them and sending them home Hope you day is painfree. hugs, a [ ] scope > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Hi Guys, > > > > > > > I had the scope on Tuesday.

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2002 Report Share Posted April 4, 2002 Hi a, I didn't mean to take so long to answer this. I am just a little tired from Easter, plus eating has been such a problem. I have just made up my mind that it is going to take the year and that is all there is too it. The reglan they want me to take was causing me terrible stomach pains. So I stopped it and restarted it a few days later but at a much lower dose. I have gradually been increasing it, so far its okay. My daughter in laws dad is looking for an ortho doctor for me. Actually he has one and is talking to him for me. So I hope we are on the move with this. I may have a ss hearing date, I should know more in a couple of days. My attorney is getting everything ready for the hearing. Hope you and are well and not in too much pain. Have a good day.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2002 Report Share Posted April 5, 2002 Lynn, I hope you're feeling better. Have you tried any of the soup recipes that I posted? The creamy broccoli-cauliflower is really good and a pot should last you a few days. I posted the cream of carrot today, but that one isn't my favorite since carrots aren't my favorite. But it isn't bad and it's very nourishing. I've been trying different creamy vegetable soups to try to increase my consumption of veggies and hopefully pass the recipes on to the group. I made cream of asparagus and it was really good. The best part was that I made it out of the bottoms of the asparagus that I usually throw away. I'm not a fan of asparagus, but this soup was very good! I'm glad to hear that you've accepted the fact that it will take a year to get your digestive system back in shape. The doctors expected this, but I know it's hard to accept. Now that you've accepted it, I hope you can find ways to cope with it. Even if it means eating baby food, you have to keep up your nourishment or you will not have the strength for your body to fight. Good luck with your ortho search. hugs, a [ ] scope > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Hi Guys, > > > > > > > > > I had the scope on Tuesday.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2002 Report Share Posted April 6, 2002 Hi a, I haven't tried you soups yet. I can't do dairy, I have always had a problems and since the surgery it is much worse. But I think I will try the carrot soup since it is made with the rice milk. I use rice milk, you told me about it sometime ago and its not bad. I love veggies so carrots and asparagus are great for me. I just bought a lot of asparagus and froze it for the future. I have been doing a lot of that lately, I cook the veggie until they are like baby food. Do you use the same recipe for the asparagus soup that you use for the carrot soup. I am going to try these. I have a ss hearing, it is on May 15th. So I need a lot of prayers and candles. Mydaughter in laws dad called the ortho doctor. I called the doctor and they were waiting for my phone call and knew everything about me. The only think that is bothering me is I wanted to put this through my own personnel insurance and they told me that cannot be done. It is illegal plus my insurance won't pay for it, but I know I have put other stuff through this way. I called my attorney but we all know he won't call back. Guess I will have to go this route, if it is illegal I don't think there is much I can do. I would have rathered my insurance paid for this doctor. I don't want to give wc the upper hand. I will find out when my appointment is on Monday. When Joni's dad does this for me things move along very quickly so I expect the appointment will be soon, hope so anyway. A little cold to be sitting out these couple of days. I long for just nice warm weather to sit in the sun and read. The sun always feels good on the bones. Hope you are feeling well today. Thanks for the carrot recipe, I will give it a try. Soup seems to agree with me.
