Went to Doctor
Pat,
Five lbs in one month and not having surgery is really good!
Get that word "only" out of your vocabulary.
How is the diabetes? Are you keeping away from the sweets?
I'll be thinking of you today.
Have you had a colonoscopy? When I had mine, the doc found diverticulosos..a pouch that forms on the intestine/colon. Food,seeds, and such get caught in there and wowzers...pain.

Thank you and ya'll are right 5 lbs is a lot. The diabetes is doing better and the numbers are staying in the low 100's except in the afternoon it is up so they will figure out what to do about that and the test today was a lot of fun drinking contrast and doing xrays. I the colonoscopy while I was in the hospital and it came back normal so now they did the lower and upper bowel study and I should know something by tomorrow so I will let you all know soon. I know about that pain I have had it before several years ago.
