Guest guest Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 Hey everyone, well i think that i got almost everything under control. I was having a lot of problems after my TP-ICT so the doctors here in columbia MO wanted to do some test. So i did the tests but after every test they wanted me to do another one b/c they needed more info. So finally i decided to e-mail Dr. Sutherland and see what he had to say. I told him about what the test said and he e-mailed me back the next day reasuring me that there was nothing to worry about all the symptoms i was having were typically. That made me feel a lot better. He also said that if i had any more questions that i could call him and talk to him directly no doctor has ever said that to me. He is great and i really appericate everything he has done for me. He is so into his job and making a difference in peope lives and i love that about him. He also actually listens to what you have to say. Isn't that amazing. i know doctors rarely do that. I hope that everyone is having a good day. Lawlor Thank You Lawlor St. Louis, MO __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 I am so glad that you have spoken with Dr. S. I know how reassuring it is to just hear from the big guy himself that everthing is honkey dorey. I know I tend to be a bit of a worry wart. What we call it is hypervigilent in the medical arena. I think it is perfectly normal to worry. I hope that you will continue to talk with him about all of this. Are you still having pain and digestive problems? Did you sidcuss with him about switching to another enzyme? How are you blood sugars. Mine have been a little elevated but I am pms-y and from what I understand is they do go up during that time. Shame tho, cuz I sure tddo get one heck of a sweet tooth a this time. I am curious about one thing tho. Has he ever told you NOT to take any tylenol what so ever. I was told that and in all that I hve looked at about our surgery there is nothing that I could find that would indicate not taking tylenol. HOw is school going? I hope that all is well and you are settling into a comfortable routine. I know you have already told me before but I am a little forgetful at time, but what is your major again. Take care of yourself and please keep in touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 The only big problem that i am still having is that i am still losing weight i have lost 40lbs and that is way too much so hopefully that will even out since my food digestion is gettin a little better and i am eating a little more. Sutherland has never told me to not take tylenol.. Did he tell you or did someone else tell u not to? My sugars have been high so i think that i am going to have to go back up on my lantus. I don't really know what else to do. School is good i am having a good time not having pain everyday and i am actually able to do some stuff sometimes which is great. My major is psychology. Hope you are having a great day. Talk to ya later. wrote: I am so glad that you have spoken with Dr. S.
