I saw a gastroenterologist this week, and he has ordered an endoscopy, but they can't get me in till June 21st.  In the meantime, I had an abdominal ultrasound a few weeks ago, and they didn't see any gall stones.  My gastro doctor said if I don't have any ulcers, He could order a test to examine my gall bladder closer.  In the meantime, I looked up gall bladder symptoms online, and I had all of them on one website.  I had my gastric bypass surgery over six years ago, and today was the first time I vomited.  I've barely eaten all day, because of constant nausea, dry heaves, and vomiting.  

This weekend is my new church's 175th anniversary, and we have several meals and services Saturday and Sunday.  Please pray I get to attend it all.  I really want to get to know people.

Also, I'll be calling the gastro doctor's office first thing Monday, to be put on a waiting list to try to move my appointment up, coz I don't think I can make it till June 21st.

Hugs,

Praise the Lord that is awesome!! My daughter is pagen so I totally understand where you ladies are coming from. My granddaughter was using meth and and came to live with us, one of the conditions was she go to church with us. She was glad to since she had gone since a little one. One of her first visits she asked to be rebaptized because now she truly understood what she was doing. She has been clean now for 7 years and still goes to church, she found one she loves that is more contemporary and closer. So I see God working in her all the time. Like the rest of us she's not perfect but she tries her best. One day I know my daughter will come back too!

Hi Evie,

Praise the Lord.  That is awesome news.  I am thrilleed for you, and your daughter.  

I know my heart's desire is that my sons would return to the Lord.  They are professed Atheists.  They both accepted  Christ in as young children, and wer active in children's and youth activities at church growing up.  

I know you're happy.  I'll pray for her.

Hugs,

Trish

Oh I hear you on both counts! I just broke a tooth and the one next to it is so loose I can wiggle it with my tongue! My dentist wants me to go to the oral surgeon but I can't afford that (like you, no dental) so I sit here with 2 teeth already gone on my right side and now  broken and loose teeth. Why is it when we are young and don't need dental we have it yet when we are old and the teeth are wearing out we got nothin'? Just isn't right!

There is a generic for lovonox but it is still expensive. Most pharmacutical places have financial hardship progams. If you contact the manufacturer of lovonox maybe you can get some at a big reduced price. It might take awhile to do but your pharmacist should be able to steer you to the right program. I do fortunately have a drug program so I try to plan ahead then I can get a months worth for $40 instead of $1000. It must just kill them to lose that much money instead of charging me an arm and a leg!

Will be praying all works out for you!

I had it in my lungs and was in the hospital for a week being pumped with prednisone and super strong antibiotics so I know what you are going thru. I did get rid of it but it took some really strong antibiotics to do it. I also have or had a MAC virus for awhile but that seems to be settled down too. My doc said if they didn't settle down I would have to do 18-24 mos of several really strong antibiotics, wasn't looking forward to that so glad it settled down! I hope this nose spray does the trick for you it's definately no fun to have.
