Guest guest Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Hi , Sorry to hear you are having such a rough time of it, with all the er visits. I know too well how that is. I am very thankful for my pain meds though, as they keep me out of the ER. Without my pain medication I think I would probably spend most of my days in the hospital. I am located about 10 miles off I65. Columbia,TN is just west of me. Lawrenceburg and Tullahoma are south/southeast of me. I am sure your husband has heard of columbia or lewisburg. Wow, what a report from Mayo. I think you should definitely have a further look at things though. Did they say that something was growing larger?? I have also had the ERCP say that I have mild dilation of intra-hepatic ducts. I also read on a medical site that that is usually in relation to chronic pancreatitis. I sure hope you are feeling better soon. Do you have strong pain meds to take at home?? I currently take demerol 50mg. I usually take it 3-4 times a day. It keeps most of the pain away and more importantly, keeps me out of the hospital. My back is still SLOWLY healing. I had a minor setback last night. I was up and doing too much (even with the walker), and then my back hurt real bad for a couple of hours. I am feeling much better today. Take care, Kris in TN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
