Well, I havent posted in a couple of weeks, but Ive been sick still!
It will be 5 weeks tomorrow since I came down with pancreatitis again.
I was on IV nutrition for 3 weeks, off 1 week and back on it again. My levels are like a rollercoaster. Last time I posted they were down from the 400's to the 200's, then they skyrocketed to almost 1500!  I was back to the ER for more IV fluids because I was dehydrated from not being able to eat or drink. Today, my levels are 157...........Im almost "normal" again, whatever that is. My when I came home from the hospital was 123 and today I was 132.  Eating is still a struggle, but I am doing it.  No pain or vomiting since Sunday. If my levels are down on Friday, they are going to start tapering the IV down to see how I do.
Im telling you, this year has SUCKED so far. My husband left me in January, then I get sick, and I am not even going to mention the stress of the added expense to what I already cannot afford on my own. Im struggling not to lose my house
I want to thank all of you for being there and lifting me up with your posts even if I dont post all the time. 
Somedays I feel like giving up, but I know that somewhere in this body is a strong, independent woman. I just cant find her most days.
Thanks for letting me vent.

Cindy

Remembering you in my prayers Cindy. I sure hope you recover quickly and can get back to feeling normal again. I can't imagine the stress you mus be under. Hang in there hun, there is a strong, independent woman in there and you will see her emurge as you go through all these hardships.

We too are struggling financially... as I'm sure many of us are during these times. We are very fearful of losing our house as well. But God is faithful and He will see us through these difficult times. You're in my thoughts & prayers.

Hugs,
Lisa
