Topic: Surgery Postponed due to ulcers
I had received that wonderful call stating my surgery was approved and my date was in three weeks!! Imagine my feeling as I've been waiting for a year due to job loss, change of health insurance, re-qualifying, etc....to finally get to this magical moment was euphoric to say the least. Then I had my physician preferred endoscopy to make sure since my stomach was about to be sealed off forever, everything was fine.....and they found 2 small ulcers!!!!
I felt like crying, screaming, crying again and then reality set in...how long now? My doctor perscribed Prevacid, to which I developed a nasty allergic reaction to, ended up in the hospital with hives so bad I had to have an epi shot and advanced doses of steroids, benadryl and pepcid just to recover.
Now I'm playing the waiting game. Does anyone have any tips on healing ulcers and how i'm NOT supposed to stress right now?
