Re: Re: the damage is done!!!

[Guest guest]

Hi Diane--- so sorry to hear

of your dilemma with the treatment.. here I was hoping it would work

for you!! This is my first time back on my puter since Nove- maybe

even October! I've been having bad bouts with Encephalopathy+++

I went up to OHSU in late Nov for another evaluation for transplant

- found that I now have liver cancer ++ a cyst in each one of my kidneys.

So I was on the PITY bandwagon myself + fighting very bad depression--

but I've recovered from the blues.... and am hoping to be able to get back

to my old happy self once again!!! I didn't know youd had a Dobie..

we've got one now named Sami ++ a miniature pinscher(my favorite)

Sami can be very pushy & is way to rambunctious for my @ times--but

I still love her & miss her when she is out with Ken--- but sometimes

it can be a BIG break for Ginger (min-pin) & me! Fortunately

my heart & lungs are still going strong..... just hope this cancer

doesn't spread anywhere else!!

Well, Ken just got back home(had

to go & deliver a computer to someone & repair another one... He

just got laid off from his regular just(pipefitting) his last job was only

7 weeks long but he was working 7 days a week 10-12 hrs a day & then

coming home & repairing PC's... sure wish I had all that energy......

I can no longer sleep @ night & when I do sleep in AM hrs I am only

able to pick 2-3 hours max...... I drank some ensure(High protein)

& today when I got up I had more eneregy than I've had for quite some

time..feels good

Gotta go

every one take care &

best wishes to all

Good Morning Everyone,

My Heart Dr. called me yesterday and was quite concerned. Didn't get

the

results of the heart scans yet, but my Liver Functions are are extremely

high....Also my magnesium is low and for the 1st time ever my thyroid

test was high.... He is very concerned..... I explained to him that

due

to my bleeding disorder I had to be stopped from the treatment in my

6th

month because it was actually killing me.... I wasn't responding ....

I

actually got worse.... My white count dropped to barely readable...

This

was due to a rare bleeding condition that I have so don't let this

scare

anyone on treatment.... It is just me.... I can never do the treatment

again and I am not a transplant candidate because of the bleeding...He

wanted to talk to my Gastro Immediately.......I have had 2nd and 3rd

oppinions on my liver dilema.... I even saw a Liver Specialist who

is

also a teacher and he said the same thing...Nothing left to due but

watch what goes into my body!!!! I told him I watch every

thing that I

eat, and take herbs..... I told him I am ok with the whole thing, and

have accepted it but I haven't given up..... But you know what? I am

really pissed that this is happening.... I do all the right things.

Don't drink, smoke and eat very healthy...... Now I am asking myself

why? I even cried last night because of all of the health problems

coming back to back..... I have to get off the pity pot and get the

fight back in me..... At least this explains why I have been feeling

so

poorly.... Say a prayer for me!! I really need it....

Angel Hugs,

Diane

Hi Diane again--- lots of people out in the west are now taking something

called Pycnogenol-- it can be found @ health food stores. It is supposed to

be very good for the liver.. I no longer use the Hepatico ( I had to stop

due to kidney problems)

Good to hear from you again, Arlene. I'm sorry to hear

about your troubles. I will be praying for you. That's

a lot to go through and keep off the pity bandwagon.

It's times like these when I pray for the right words

to say to help you feel better, but they're not there.

That is the one thing we are all hoping not to hear. I

pray that it is isolated and they can remove it. Does

this affect whether you are a candidate for a

transplant? Praying hard in Green Bay -dz-
