Hi CP Pals,

Well, yesterday, (Sat.) I told you I would let you know what has happening to

me. Sorry that I haven't got back to you all sooner, but I have been in bed

mostly. Here it goes. Well, I awoke out of a very sound sleep at 8:10 am

Thursday with this horrible pain in my left side & into my back, which is

unusual for me since my pain is on right side into my back. Well I just thought

it was just the tail of my Cranky Pancreas acting up, so I took my pain meds and

tried to take it a little easy and didn't tell anyone. My pain went from a 2

Wed. night to a 6 Thursday morning, so I knew something was up. When I did wake

up on Fri, when my husband went to work at 4:30 am, the pain was at a 7 , so I

go back to bed & was able to sleep. Then I got up at 9:30 to get ready to go

and get my pain pump refilled. I already had this appt. When I get there they

tell me my alarm is going off when the first take a reading before the refilled

it. So I have it refilled and after it's refilled the alarm is still indicating

the battery is low. So I told them I was having lunch with my daughter at the

hospital, since she works there. They told me after I eat to come back and they

would take a reading to see what was going on. Well, all I had to eat was 1/2

cup of cottage cheese and a cup of tapioca(SP?) and 2 bites of tuna salad and my

tummy swells up to look like I'm 9 months pregnant. My nurse couldn't believe

the change in the size of my stomach. Well, they took another reading & it

still said battery low. They said since the morphine was warm when they put in

, this time it's real that the battery is low, so they call OUS, & talk to the

nurse to let them know what going on. OSU was supposed to get back to my nurse

or me after they talked to my doc. Neither one of us, have heard anything from

OSU, as when I going to have surgery to have it replaced. Of all weekend to get

an attack, we did have plans to attend the first annual Stern Wheeler Festival

on the Ohio River this Weekend. Well we did make it to Friday night Lighted

Boat parade which was only 2 boats and a jet ski light up. I was in all lot of

pain and should have stayed home, but didn't want to disappoint my husband, so I

went. It was nice to get out of the house on such of a pleasant evening. They

had all lot of the festival food, but I couldn't eat, even thro we did go down

to it for dinner, so my husband did get to eat for me. Saturday comes and the

pain isn't any better,in fact it's now at an 8 and holding there, but I did make

it to the festival Fireworks display. I glad I did as they were very

Spectacular. My husband did get to eat dinner there, but Iwas too sick to eat,

so I drank Gatorade. Then Sunday they were having the Stern Wheeler race, but I

didn't make it as now the pain is up to an 8 still and even more nauseated and

it was sprinkling anyway. So I stayed home and spent most of the day sleeping

and taking my pain meds and nausea meds. Any trying to take it as easy as

possible, so today I'm on Liquids only. I hope to hear from OSU as when the can

replace my pain pump , as this is what they think is causing my pain. The pain

pump isn't functioning to full capacity Well , I don't think I be on here very

long as it hurts to be at the computer. I just took more pain & nausea meds &

I'm waiting for them to kick in. I hope you all have had a better & pain-free

weekend than I have had. I'll let you all know what's going on about having my

pump replaced as soon as I find out anything. At least one good thing has

happen, is so far I can't hear the alarm beeping, which they said could happen

anytime. I guess I better knock on wood that it doesn't happen. With how I

feel, that's just what I need is the alarm beeping. Then I would be more of a

witch than I'm already am. Sorry this is so long, but I wanted you all to know

what is going on with me. At least we are hoping it's just the pump not

functioning right and not a full blown attack of pancreatitis.

Take Care,

Louie in WV
