Thx, Sue, that explains it just fine. My CBC was fine last time, just

two weeks ago, so instead they're gonna have me do stool sample stuff,

yuck! 3 times! Dunno why 3 times...

My pcp says it's probably either gastritis or a bleeding ulcer and of

course gave me the little purple pill, which helped for a few hours at

least.

So, hopefully I'm on the road to dx and recovery, thx for all your

input.

On another note, my pcp gave me crap about using two different sleeping

pills (one at night, one in the morning cuz the first one only works

about 5 hours.) I had a mail order pharmacist chastise me about it, too,

even though my rh approved it. (Like that pharmacist was my doc or even

my regular pharmacist! He said I " couldn't sleep half the day away " even

though I'm only getting 8-10 hrs a night and have epilepsy and HAVE to

sleep.)

But since I've been sick, I've developed a streak of 'how dare you give

me crap'-itis :) Well, at least to the pharmacist, who I got to back

down, not yet to my pcp. But after I try her alternative solution, which

won't work, I'll be ready to stick up to her, too :)

Anybody else have that happen, get sick and decide that you weren't

gonna take it anymore?

Ambien has a new sleeping pill that is supposed to be time-released.

It's called Ambien CR or something like that.
