Guest guest Posted November 14, 1999 Report Share Posted November 14, 1999 Hi Lovey, No apologies necessary, I have done this in the past myself, and when I saw how bad it looked on the digest form I was so surprised. As for private email hitting the list, it happens a lot when we are neurologically impaired, another one I have done myself. I also have a bad habit of responding or posting on the list, and finding out later it had already been answered or posted, because I did not read all my mail first before I answered....If I ever get caught up, I will try to figure out some way to avoid this. Hugs, Marta From: lovey38@... Subject: APOLOGIES TO MARTA Marta, point well taken and you did it with class! See below. Sometimes wading through massive e-mail makes us uncautious. I sincerely thought I had posted all those personal stories via private email. LymeBrains, one and all. I am so embarrased to think all of that info went public. Oh well. I am not functioning too well today and had a hypoglycemic episode last night. I had forgotten to eat all day but took my insulin and was pround of myself for remembering the insulin. again, my apologies for making your job that much harder. (I DO KNOW what it is like). Lovey <We all must remember to highlight and delete the stuff at the bottom that advertises on each post before we reply. Also, please try to delete a portion of the mail that you are replying to, not all of it is pertinent to the discussion. And last but not least, please remember we have the -offtopic list for discussions other than those related to Lyme disease.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 10, 2001 Report Share Posted March 10, 2001 Hello ... I haven't had a colonoscopy YET, lol so, I'm gonna explain as my sister told me. She was sedated pretty well, which I'm sure helps, and she said the actual procedure wasn't as bad as she thought. There was definately some discomfort going on, but her doctor was very gentle and his " bedside manner " is an A+...so that in itself helps A very long " tubing " with a camera at the end is inserted and it goes through your whole intestine....which is I don't know how many feet long.....and air is pushed through to expand the colon so they may see it better on the screen. Unfortunately you have to be awake for this, but after it's done your wheeled into a room for awhile to " pass " all that air that was blown through. That's the best way I know to explain......I'm sure I could tell ya lots more if I'd had mine. lol But I think that's enough info. I hope this helps some.... How are your parents feeling with the HCV? My husband is on the interferon therapy and it makes him soooooooooooooooo ill He also just found he has kidney problems developing.....we just found out about the hep c a few months back (were devastated).....and both had liver biopsys.....mine came back ok, but he is already in early stage of cirrhosis They say it's from the hep, as he has been sober from alcohol for 10 years too. (what a slap in the face that was). Hepatitis is an epidemic, and it's going to get worse with all the teens getting tattoos, body piercings, etc..and IV drug use. Oh well, one day at a time is how we do it..... Take care and I hope everything turns out well for you!! ----------------------------- Welcome Denisa! My name's Marie and I'm new as well. This is a great group of caring compassionate people....I am also in recovery, na/aa! Nice to " meet " you! Again, welcome aboard! ----------------------------- Goodnight all, and Aisha I hope things are getting a lot better for you & your husband as well! Take care!

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2001 Report Share Posted March 10, 2001 Marie, That isn't as bad as I thought. My father has cirrhosis and may have cancer. They just recently found out about the Hep C, and they think he's had it for 25 years or more. He is an alcoholic. He is on the interferon, and is very ill. I don't know his outcome yet, but he is pretty miserable. Re: Digest Number 794 Hello ... I haven't had a colonoscopy YET, lol so, I'm gonna explain as my sister told me.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2001 Report Share Posted March 10, 2001 , if this helps any..I have had the colonoscopy done and it really isn't all that bad. Kind of uncomfortable but not unbearable. Actually, I was fascinated at seeing my colon! (sick huh?) The only comment I made and the nurse about cracked up was that I know knew that I couldn't be a male homosexual! Sorry, that was crude huh? It was more embarassing then anything. The worst part for me was drinking the stuff to clean you out, I couldn't keep it down long enough for it to work like it was suppose to. ===== searching for Deborah dob 1/14/57 in nna, Fl Relinquished in Chicago, 1961 brother and 5 other siblings searching Half-sib found 1-16-00! __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which researchers? Give us a reference so we can look at the research ourselves. -- Tel 07092057581 ICQ 40628243 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
