Test results....

Everything came back negative. That's GREAT but I have to admit that I'm disappointed just a little because that means I have no answer for what's going on with me. *sigh* The pain is still there....but it is a very low intensity and has been low like this for a few days. I'm not sure what to do at this point. Maybe I should just keep taking the Prevacid and wait n see? I am negative for Hpylori...so that's not the issue.... I just don't know. I'm trying to focus on puttin a few pounds ON (that's a switch!) just in case it does come back real bad and I end up very sick or in surgery. I just think I would feel safer with a little extra weight to sustain me in an emergency. This whole episode has made me so leery. Hugs, Pam

Hi Pam~ You must be sooo frustrated with not knowing what is going on. I'm glad that the pain is less, that's a praise! And, have some fun while trying to put on the lbs. I think I would be able to accomplish that with no problem! I'm still trying to take off these last 15 lbs. Hey, by the way, how are your new "girls" and arm surgery? Are you completely happy with how everything has healed? Your pics look fab!! Keep us posted on how things progress, and if you find out what the issue is. Hugs, Kerri

Hi Pam~ I am sorry that you aren't feeling good and still don't have an answer...I'm sure still frustrating. Hope that things are settled very soon...I wish that I needed to put a few lbs. on myself, but I am still trying to lose atleast 50 more before this summer. And with christmas over I seem to be hungrier than ever.... Keep us posted on how you are doing...I have been reading posts here and there when I have had a free moment ( which is far and few between at this point). Anyway, keep posting....I look forward to reading them. Jamie

Hey Pam Maybe you should ask them to make sure you don't have a celiac sprue since it's hard to diagnose and misdiagnosed a lot. Just to check it off the list. BTW - I was so tired today I fell asleep and mised going to the gym, darn it!! My 1st miss this year.

HEY PAM..but u havent actually had a scope in the testing? THATs the only way they saw my ulcer...was via scope. NO signs in blood work. NO signs in other scans i had and stuff on my journey SO maybe its worth doing a scope.... good luck pain stinks. I know i had a virus that came with a bunch of pain...cramping for 2 days but you been far longer then that. GOOD luck but maybe push to have a scope and let them look inside whats going on the pouch there not painful at all but u proly have to take a day from work to have it done. GOOD LUCK hugs

Hey Pam! Long time no post for me! I have been without my computer for awhile, trying to have the viruses removed!! Well, I agree with Lisa. It is simple and easy to have a scope done. Also mention the possibility of an internal hernia to your doc and see what they say. Hope you feel better soon. Wendy

Hi Pam, Well, I'm reading this post about three months later... so I hope the whole episode ended fine. How are you doing.... Not many postings on the June board anymore or as frequently. I have yet to update my profile... but I think it is still the same. Got on some scales and they READ the same, but my clothes are a bit tighter... How you doing?
