Saw my PCP today

And tomorrow morning I have to go in for an ultrasound. When she palpated my tummy i nearly jumped off the table and she said THAT is not a good sign this far out. I told her I have not been taking anything for pain because I haven't had any pain ****il she pushed on my tummy I hadn't) just some discomfort for the last 4 days but nothing that I felt i had to take oxycodone for. I have had stubbed toes that hurt worse than what I have been feeling for the past few days. But she is going to have my surgeon prescribe some mild pain reliever for me other than children's tylenol but not so heavy as oxycodone.

It's only been about 3 weeks right? I'd think your insides are likely to still be really sore upon palpatation?! Did she say what she thinks is wrong or give any hints or anything? Please let us know the results of the ultrasound tomorrow and best of luck to you!

Solstyce, she didn't venture any guesses as to what might be found. She is the kind of doc who says "let's see what we find and deal with it once we know what's going on." She is absolutely the most wonderful doc I have ever had and one of my biggest cheerleaders! I'd adopt her but I think her hubby and kids might object! LOL anyway she said if they dont see anything on the ultrasound that we will get a CT scan just to be safe. She always wants to make sure her patients are healthy as possible you know?

Hope everything is fine.  Kinda scary to not know exactly what's going on in there but glad they can take a gander in & hopefully find out easily enough. ~Melissa

Melissa that's pretty much where I am at. It's not cool not being able to see what's going on in there right now but the ultrasound will give us a pretty good picture we hope. I am not afraid or anything because I know between my surgeon and my Doc I am in fabulously capable hands and they will take the best care of me they can. The great thing is that if I have to be admitted for any reason I live right across the street from the hospital and my family can be there before they get me all settled lol. So whatever happens happens. This might sound bad but I am in a way hoping that they do have to admit me for a few days cus then maybe I can kick this stupid smoking habit lol. Bad kitty I know but its kind of like hoping I do lose my hair from this surgery lol. Im being a rebel lol.

This isn't a good thing but thank god there's another person out there struggling like hell to quit smoking! I have quit now but only because I have surgery in 5 days. I'm already thinking when I'm done with surgery, I want to smoke! Makes no damn sense whatsoever- I'm doing this to get healthy- but damn it's so hard to quit!!!!! Only another smoker could possibly understand so I feel your pain :(
Let us know what happens tomorrow :)

Solstyce! No kidding!!!! oh my god I am so frustrated with myself. They found a tumor in my fundus when they removed it and I am smoking?????????? I must have some sort of self-destruct button on the blink in my head but I am going to talk to a hypnotist about it. And hopefully that will help. You hang in there hon. We can kick this habit!!!!

Positive thoughts coming your way

Thank you hon! Very much appreciated!
