Guest guest Posted February 14, 2002 Report Share Posted February 14, 2002 I'm 48, symptoms since 1985, Dx in 2001. _____________________ I try to avoid mentioning abdominal pain to docs. Right now I'm in the seond week of something (I suspect impaction, still unclear how I couod know for sure), have the runs every day, I'm only eating nuts, drinking replacement meals and buttermilk and lots of water. I'm nauseous and have enormous pains in my abdomen. Retaining water in my gut. Twice so far this week, I've awoken in a puddle of drool and my body is drenched in seat, yet I'm cold to the touch and my body temp is spot-on 36C (all last week I ran a fever). I have an appointment on Monday. If I am impacted, how, without ER can I get rid of it? The lumps I can feel are a bit high up. I massage my belly in a warm tub at night, makes my innerds gurgle but nothing moves. What's next? I might have a UTI as well, can you give me the names of test strips as they are marketed in the US? The only ones they can order in so far are for both protein and cholesterol, are those the right ones (I figure probably Louise would know). Also have very dark yellow/organge eyelids (cheaper on eyeshadow), skin in general is darker than before - does that indicate anything? aletta mes, vancouver, bc canada ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Site: http://www.aletta.0catch.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
