Pain in stomach

[Guest guest]

Good morning everyone, the last time I posted was 10/10/02 about the

pain I was having in my stomach which this past weekend hit me again

and went to the ER but it was so busy that we just came home and I

went to bed and prayed and took pain meds and the pain went away

after about 4 hours. I went to my surgeon yesterday and he thinks it

might be a hernia, he said that when we lose alot of weight (I have

lost 111lbs since my surgery last june) that things inside can pull

and tug and kinda mess things up that he did during the surgery, so

I have to have a CT scan tomorrow (what fun LOL) anyway guess we

will find out about it after that, wish me luck, the pain when it

does come is getting worse and is really scaring me.

I want everyone to know that I read all the emails I get from here

and it really helps to see that I am not alone with either slow

losing or not losing at all for a while, my RD gave me another list

to go by to help jump start me to losing again, I have messed up my

right knee when I was 446lbs and the knee cap has moved somewhat to

the side, so I can't walk for very long without some pain, so I am

working on getting that fixed soon, I had lost close to 100lbs

before my gastric bypass cause they had me on steroids cause of my

lupus but had taken me off of them before my surgery so I had a head

start so to speak.

I live in Roanoke Va. about 4hours away from all the sniper

shootings and we are all really scared even this far cause we have

no idea if he they or whom ever these people are will be heading

this way, my 17 year old daughter just got her permit and is too

scared to drive and she had been hoping to get her permit for so

long and now too scared to enjoy it. Thank you all for letting me

vent again, just alot of stress now and the not knowing of what will

happen next.

You all are in my thoughts and prayers

Hope
