Guest guest Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 I just wanted to say hello and let everyone know how I and my mom and dad are doing. Well mostly about my dad. As some of you know he has macular degeneration of both eyes along with cateract's of both eye's(used to). He had the cateracts removed. Now he can see the TV and things at a distance " without glasses. " This is so awsome. He still has problems with up close stuff. But, we will take every little good and positive thing. For me I still am taking the meds to see if I can disolve the stone in my billary tree of my liver. Man this pain with the pancreatitis pain is something sometimes. The ERCP that they did to try to remove it failed. The tried to dialate it three times. I go in on the 5th of April, if I can hold out with the pain, for another ERCP. Hopefully this ERCP I will not wake up towards the end of it like I did the last one. Another thing I have come down with the shakes so bad. I don't know if it because of the pain? or what? I freaked during the MRCP. They had to give me a break and try a second time feet first. So I don't know. It is just the news about my dad that is so positive. I was really praying for this outcome. I am becoming really close to my parents. Walt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 That's really good to hear about the progress your father has made. It is amazing how a little bit of good can turn out to be a lot of good when things have been so down and out for long periods of time. I hope they are successful this time with your ERCP, and you should ask if they can have an anaesthesiologist use diproven sp? or perpocel sp? (not sure if the second one is correct, but it is an egg based anaesthetic which is a mild general) for you. They use those on me and I don't wake up...they also are excellent in the fact that you wake up and are not left drowsy for hours afterwards..10 minutes after waking up and I'm wide awake..
