Guest guest Posted September 20, 2002 Report Share Posted September 20, 2002 , so glad you are not having much pain or nausea and NO HOSPITAL. Hope it continues. As for the tasteless chicken breasts, have you tried putting some spices like garlic, oregano, thyme, etc to help make it less tasteless? Kimber -- Kimber Vallejo, CA hominid2@...

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2002 Report Share Posted September 20, 2002 , That is awesome. I was just telling someone it has been 10 days since I've been inthe hospital or ER. That's the longest I've been since this began for me AGAIN on July 18th. My mom, sis, and I are booked for a cruise with many of my online weight loss surgery friends. We fly to Ft Lauderdale on Oct 9th. I am just praying to be fine to go on the trip and through the trip. We have never been on a cruise and have never done a " just girls " vacation and my mom is so excited. My sis says no way would Mom go if I am too sick to go! I've got an appointment with the GI/biliary surgeon on Oct 21st, one week after I get back. I spoke with my GI today and he told me I am in very good hands with the surgeon I have been referred to. He still believes that my problems are being caused by some adhesions being pulled or twisted and causing things to block up, which then cause the horrible pain and sometimes causes my pancreas and liver enzymes to elevate so much. My GI thinks the reason the colonoscopy caused me such pain is that the air caused things in my stomach to expand and pull on the adhesions. He thinks the problem isn't really with the bile duct as my surgeon thinks. However, he said that the specialty surgeon I am going to is brilliant (and very nice) and that when he gets inside he will be able to determine if my problem is the bile duct or adhesions or maybe both and correct the problem and then I'll be fine!

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2002 Report Share Posted September 21, 2002 Kimber What do you take on a daily basis for pain and nausea and the dosage? I need this info for my doctor. from Canada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 30, 2002 Report Share Posted September 30, 2002 , Way to go! Keep up the good work. Take Care, Louie in WV 6 weeks now Good evening everyone. I hope everyone is having a painfree day. Once again, at the risk of jinxing myself (but I'm so elated over this) today makes it 6 weeks without needing the services of the hospital, no nausea or pain. I still take my 'zymes and zofran 3 times a day though. I would sure hate to stop them and find out they were really helping. I have to reign myself in now and then with eating; I do push the envelope some. I have been to Popeyes a couple of times but at least I do peel the skin off first. And that's the best part of the whole thing. Guess I was just wanting something a little more tasty than the skinless chicken breasts I grill up on my Foreman easy grill (or whatever it's called). Well, you folks take care, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Hoping all has a pain free weekend. Keep the Faith, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
