Topic: does anyone get on here anymore
I am just so proud of myself that I got to brag. Sorry!!!! But I have been gone for a few months and I have got tons of help and now recovering from my anorexia and bulimica. I feel so much better. I promised my 22 year old son and my 16 year old daughter that I will try my best to gain weight. I promised on my life. I took away their life to take care of me. Now it is time I get back in reality and be the mom. I am sorry to brag about my recovering but I just gotta tell someone. When I put on a little more weight I will take a picture and show ya. Thank you all for being here for me.
lots of love

Topic: RE: 2nd scope
Hi Tim!

So glad to hear your second scope went well and you are losing again. I just got out of the hospital Friday from having a TT and my arms done. So hanging in the recliner these days. I think when I am all healed up, I am going to talk to my surgeon about a scope. Have not had one since surgery (GB) and know I can eat more too. Althought right now everything is so tight and with the binder, doesn't take much to get that VERY full feeling.

I have taken Prevacid everyday since surgery. (sol u tabs) and LOVE this medicine. I took it for acid reflux and the ulcer prevention is a huge bonus.

Take care! Enjoy a protein shake tonight!

Topic: 2nd scope
Had my 2nd scope session last thursday. Dr. shrank my stoma a little more but said it looked pretty good and didn't think we would have to do it again.
Meanwhile he also said it appears my ulcer has healed but he wants me to stay on the prevacid until my prescription runs out.
So it's back on liquids only for a few days and soft foods again for a couple of weeks.
On the plus side I'm down another 4 pounds since my last Dr. visit and 13 since this process began.  Gonna keep it up and make my goal yet.
Cheers to all and enjoy the holiday weekend!

I hope your endoscope went well and yielded a better understanding of what's happenning inside. I had an ulcer at the juncture of my pouch and jujenum brought on by chemo/radio. It healed over time and I used Previcid religiously.

Thoughts and prayers your way,

Keep us informed,

Dave

Topic: RE: Help!
Diane, I haven't experienced anything like that. How did the endoscopy go? Did they discover anything? Are they giving you anything for your discomfort? It sounds like complications from your second surgery (gall bladder), but I am certainly no expert. I hope you are feeling better.. Malibu

Topic: scope follow up
Had my post-scope follow up visit with my surgeon today. I am definately eating less since my procedure. I figure it takes about 1/3 less food to fill me up. I've lost 6 pounds too since then. The doctor wants to go in and scope me again. He said it often takes 3 rounds of injections around the stoma to achieve the desired and permanent results. I'm scheduled to take another nap next Thursday (the 28th). The ulcer has been feeling better too. That prevacid is gooooood stuff. We will see how it's healing while the camera is in there too. Thats about it. I will let you know how it goes. Tim
