Guest guest Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Irene, I'm so glad that you are alright. We were all worried about you. It makes me so angry that the medical community where you sought help let you suffer for so long, then gave you bad treatment. Thank God, you finally got the help that you needed. I pray that you heal quickly. Is there anyone with you? Take care and keep in touch.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Thanks Joyce, How are you doing? I Hope everything is going Well! I'm staying with my sister for a few days. I will have a nurse that will check up on me every week and every 1-2 weeks my dr's will be following me up to ensure I don't relapse and to ensure I'm eating, I still don't have the total appetite to eat. They told my sister I was pretty sick by the time I was re-admitted in the hospital. Even though I'm back home, I'm not completetly out of the woods, the slightest fever, nausea, losing weight or vomiting, the nurse has to call an ambulance to take me back to hospital.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Thanks Sher, I'm staying with sister for a few days. A nurse will be coming every week to check up on me. My dr's from now on will be monitoring me more closely. I'm not up and about yet, because I don't have the energy yet and I lost so much weight 50 pounds+. Now I have gotten a cold.
