Guest guest Posted March 24, 2004 Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 Hi there! Just wanted to say that I hope the increase in the pain med for the pump works 100%. I can so relate to the pain exploding when you eat or drink. Maybe with the increase in med, you'll be able to eat without so much pain. I hope, anyway. Keep us posted on how you're doing, ok?

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2004 Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 want to have my pain Pump Refill and they informed me that they had the OK to turn up my Pump from 8.0 a day to 10.0 a day. Hopefully that will help things settle down in a few days. Dear Louie, Oh, great, some progress at least. I imagine it is probably going to take a few days for that pain to settle down, I just hope they got your pump increased soon enough to help knock it down!! I was afraid at first that it was too late,,,you know how it goes sometimes when if you let the pain get too severe that even once you get better meds it's too late and the pain just keeps escalating? But you did say that if felt a little less severe today, so that sounds like it is working....it's just gotta' take a while. I hope your PCP could help you, too, and I do hope it settles down enough to you can eat and drink again. I just hate it when I can't eat for the pain, you get so weak that way. Let us know how it all went today, okay. But get yourself some rest, first!! With love, hope and prayers, Heidi Heidi H. Griffeth South Carolina SC & SE Regional Rep.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2004 Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 Thanks so much for the support and kind words, Louie. I don't know if I would have made it the past couple of days had I not had all the wonderful people here in the group. I loved the way you said, " the pain is in my side and my abdomen, not in my head. " Thanks again. Louie. How are you doing with your new medicine?

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 Hey Louie. I did the fecal elastase today, and will probably get the results next Monday. As soon as get the results, I will know what steps to take. Take care. Tammy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
