Chuck, Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Hang in there. DonO From: Chuck Alexander Sent: Saturday, November 30, 2013 9:08 PM To: Cheaper Living ; fly fishing for panfish ; vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Subject: [VFB] Thoughts and prayers needed
Folks: I need your thoughts and prayers. This Tuesday morning I have to have both an Upper Endoscopy and a Colonoscopy (PLEASE God let them use two DIFFERENT tubes LOL) as I have been having stomach/intestinal pains since late July or so. It got soooo bad, that in August I had to go to the ER and they kept me for three days running all sorts of tests, starting with tests on the heart as a man (or woman) of 55 with any type chest or abdominal pain, that’s the first thing they rule out. Thought it was my gall bladder because the pain radiated in back from between my shoulder blades to down and in front at my abdominal area. Ruled that out with CT scans, and ultrasounds, and said though the gall bladder a little inflamed, there were no stones, or blockages. Plus, they did a Mio View stress test for my heart and said they saw little or no blockages, so I was glad to hear that. But SOMETHING is making it hurt 24/7. My doc says it could even be scar tissue/adhesions attaching themselves to my intestines as I had to have FIVE Hiatal Hernia repair surgeries, and have three plastic meshes in there now, along with 27 staples, and over 200 permanent type stitches. I hope they find out what it is, but just hope it’s something that can be easilly corrected as this pain is getting to be a major pain. And NONE of the meds my new doc I found while in the hospital prescribed me. That’s was the good part about that whole thing too. I went to a different hospital than the one we normally use, as we moved two years ago, and the one I now use is closer, and I love my new doc who is now our new Family Doc. Thanks a lot, Chuck -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.
