Hi everone.  I just wanted to post whats happened since my last tearful post!  I called surgeon on  Thursday and he told me to get to the ER.  So I left Thursday around 3:00 and just got home awhile ago.  After doing an endoscopy, seems I have an ulcer at the beginning of my pouch.  That why I could not get anything in without pain.  So 2 days in the hospital being pumped up with fluids for the dehydration and some new medicine for the ulcer. Still dont feel great, but I should get better every day.  So thanks to all who answered my post the other day.  I truly appreciate all of you, dont know how I would get through this without my OH family!                                        Joan

Sorry I missed your previous post.  My Mom had surgery so I have been MIA.

I'm so glad the surgeon found out what the probably was.  It should take the medicine long to start working. 

I agree with you about our family on the LW board.

You poor thing.... You weren't kidding about that pain!  No one can accuse you of being the little 'girl' who cried wolf.  I'm so happy to hear your doctor got to the bottom of your trouble!  I hope you heal up soon and please keep us posted.
