Guest guest Posted November 19, 2002 Report Share Posted November 19, 2002 I saw Dr J. GI and he gave me lortab 10 which is agreeable to me.. I explained the misunderstanding with pcp and patty to him. He said they are all trying to help me but I won't listen to what they recommend... surgery to drain the two large pseudocysts one on my pan , the other covering my left kidney... draining them into my small intestine has HAS to be done.. I had seen the surgeon they recommended and he said he couldn't help me as I would have to go to tampa general 3 hours away,,,, to a specialist inthis area of surgery. IIII wasn't understanding the whole situation i explained... I could not afford the surgery. All 3 doc's got together and decided that they would do the surgery for free...... given my state of affairs!! I can't believe how nice and generous they all are to help me.. I am so grateful to all.. I will have to find out the Tampa General hospitals surgeons hame and make arrangements at his convienence tomorrow and will find out all the details i can. My tom just freaks out every time I go to the hospital.... really freaks... He said he would get off work and stay with me up there.... he is my earth angel...you know. Seven years in our relationship... not married... and 6 of those years I have been sick with chronic pancreatitis.... so you see... he is a real angel. and maybe .... alittle crazy? If anyone out there knows of this kind of procedure... i don't know what it's called..... could you please help me with any details.... how long operation...... etc...... what to expect? i'm not afraid because i know God only gives us what we can handle.... he knows I am tough.... I think my loved ones... my two sons could use some strength at this point. My youngest is a freshman at florida state and my oldest is a newlywed with a baby on it's way in May but they live in alabama... We are very close as I have raised them by myself all their lives... Any suggestionss for support for them??? thanaks thankss for listening to me babble......... jan Digest Number 2027 > PANCREATITIS Association, Intl. > Online e-mail group > > To reply to this message hit & quot;reply & quot; or send an e-mail to: Pancreatitis (AT) Yahoo > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
