Frustrated !

Oh dear lord! :-)

Well, I have done the bentyl, but it was while I was having all of the other stuff so who knows!  I have an appointment with Ruffini on the 24th so we will see..I already take a probiotic so Im not buying that one either!

Hopkins was a bust...they will only accept people who are looking for revision or stomaphx (sp?).  SO I have a call into Penn State, which was Dr. Peters second pick.  I am waiting on a call from the program director who will take the case to the surgeons to decide if I can have an appointment! Temple is my next call.

This is nuts!  I just want it all to end so I can move on.  As Dr. Peters said lets change the oil, get the engine light off, etc. so I can get a wax job (plastic) in July! :-)

 Temple was really nice. But basically all they said was "well all the surgery reports, xrays, ctscans blah blah look normal. We'll have to do a exploratory surgery ourselves to take a look and see."

Well, if that is where we end up, Peters will be doing an exploratory ASAP when school gets out so I can heal quickly b4 my plastics!  We don't want to do it before school gets out though due to an increase in pain following the exploratory! :-)

 Dr Irgau really wanted me to have Dr. Mehlan at Temple do an exploratory but he left it up to me. I wanted to put it off since I was quite tired of having surgeries. Unfortunately though on Dec 27th I woke up in horrible pain, ended up in the ER with Dr. Wynn (who had no prior knowledge of the situation) so I figured she'd be just as much a "new set of eyes." As a doctor from Temple so she did my most recent exploratory on Dec 30th annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd NOTHING! Boooyah! Ha Dr. Irgau and I pretty much laugh about the whole thing now. **** I'm like a VIP patient with him anymore.
