"Guess Who's Back......Back Again....

Keith, I'm so glad you are home and feeling better. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!! Tammy

GOOD GOD !!!! A pint ? sheeeeeeeeesssshhhh Where is the location of this evil ulcer? You are gonna have to work on getting that blood count up unless you wanna get transfused next time !!! Poor thang !!! My heart goes out to you. Get well...we need our daily history lessons, Slim !!!! Hugs, Dana

Dana, Thanks for your comments and prayers. The ulcer is located right where they reconnected me to my new pouch. I got gastritus after sugery and that was the original reason why the ulcer got so bad so quickly. They told me to just take Prilosec for a couple of months and everything would be fine. Well! Evidently I needed to do a little more than that because about a month after I stopped the prilosec is when everything went hay-wire!! Yes, I do have a GI specialist and he did the scope and small bowel x-rays. I think it was bleeding and then just stopped so thats why he couldn't find it afterwords. Thanks again and I'll keep those history lessons coming. B-Rabbit ()

Keith, you don't know me but I feel like I know you. I read your posts and laugh at your responses. My family has "family prayer" every morning before we leave for work and school. I gave the prayer on Thursday and included you in it. On Friday it was my 13 year old son's turn. In the middle of his prayer he groggily said, "and bless Keith, whoever he is that he'll recover from whatever's wrong with him so he can get busy with whatever he wants to do today." Guess you can tell what his "word" is lately. Only he usually says it with a little attitude. Anyway, welcome back and have a happy non-bleeding weekend. Jenn

Jenn, Thank you and your family SOOOO much for the prayers!!! It still floors me when so many people pray for me. Kind of don't feel worthy of so much love from so many good people! Thank you again and God Bless. Keith

Hey Keith, Welcome back.. and knock that scary stuff off, will ya! Hope you feel 100% soon! Wendy

Keith- Great news! Glad to hear that you are doing better and that it stopped bleeding. I didn't see (maybe missed it), but would you mind sharing a bit of your experience so others know what to look for in a similiar expereince? If it's too embarrassing, I understand. But, glad to have you back! Jill 263/177/145

Keith, we were all so concerned about you! Glad you are back. Take it easy for awhile!!! love donna

Hey Keith, Was wondering if you are a smoker...My surgeon made me quit because he said that smoking can cause some major ulcers in the pouch...i had never heard anyone else say that before my surgeon (unless he is just trying to scare me into quitting)! Hope you're feeling better! Christine

and we are thanking God for that!! Granny Candy
