Saw my surgeon.
What a guy! I am SO blessed with such a wonderful, handsome surgeon! (The cuteness is an added benefit!)
He wanted to see me in person, so, in I went. Took the hour's drive and waited until he was out of surgery to see him.
I told him of my ER fiasco while he was out of town and he didn't like it. He led me from the exam room to his office where he opened a desk drawer and handed me a business card. He said, "Next time, use this, even if I'm out of town. It has my cell phone and my home phone numbers on it. I don't want you waiting around in any ER's like that again!"
Then he goes..."By the way, you're looking fantastic!" Whew, made my day.
He does believe it is an ulcer and I'm to continue with the meds he prescribed and two more weeks of a liquid type diet to help calm things down.
Now to take care of this nagging hemmoroid that flared up with all the diarrahea I had. OUCH!
Thanks all for the well wishes!
paula...who's GOT to take a new pix of herself!
I made my 1 yr check up apt with my surgon and I asked the girl what are the chances of me getting an apointment close to the 6th and she said how bout 2pm? I said when, she said on the 6th...how cool is that?
Glad your surgon is now taking "personal" care of you, no more nasty long ER mess ups.
