Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 I haven't been on the site for a while as I was having problems having a bm even with MOM and had entero lab do some tests on me and went off wheat,gluten and cows milk. I became very ill and lost so much weight and my doctor did a colonoscopy and discovered that my rectal opening was gettin smaller and closing and he did a anoplasty and grafting to make a normal rectal opening. Now I am trying to recuperate and trying to get some weight back but its a struggle at 72 years of age. I almost died. I was told that I was going without a lot of nutritious foods and tests were done during the colonoscopy and endoscopy (biopsies) and showed no sensitivity to gluten,wheat and Iwas tested for cows milk although I still try to avoid them some. I called entero lab and explained my situation and she said to go back on cows milk a little. I still can't get a hold of Dr. Fine to ask him. That I didn't quite ubder stand. The doctors I have been to and believe there were many experts said if these tests that Dr Fine does than why haven't they heard about him and why aren't they covered by medicare and made known to the public by other doctors and they also said the internet is some where you need to be cautious about as they checked it and said that its extra money for every tests and the only way to be tested is thru the internet and they found it very suspicious. I'm beginning to think the miralax situation pertains to children as I have been off miralax and on MOM and still get sores in my mouth and sometimes worse that when on miralax. I'm really puzzled but right now am under strict doctors care and do feel a little better/ What is the real answer and how does one make a decision for what I am going through. Sometimes things just don't work out for everyone and now since my surgery I have had to cut my MOM down to 1 tsp and still may have to quit it and take something else as it gives me cramps and dirrhea. I am so confused but I feel a bit better after the surgfery which will take months to recup. This is just my sory. thanks for listening. I still think my mouth sores came from the new mouth guard as its not much better and at least the miralax helped me to have a bm naturally. oh well we'll see as I haven't switched to miralax yet. sincerely marg messick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
