I think the bug is H. Pylori - causes acid reflux and ulcers. a few weeks on the meds should solve the problem. They are giving you the medicine now, so you will be problem free for surgery.

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 For a while now, it seems like at times my body feels like its just going to collapse in on itself. I can barely sit up, when I lay down even that hurts. I'm not sure whats causing it. Am I just getting old or is it something else. I've gotten to the point where anytime I feel anything different I just think well one more thing the sarc is affecting. Any ideas, suggestions, comments about my sanity (my sense of humor is still around thank god). I can't take calcium because I naturally produce way too much, but if there is something else that might work I'm all ears. Thanks so much to all of you that take the time to answer those of us that feel so lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
