Topic: RE: Losing pains?

70...in less than 3 months!? WOW. That sounds like you are doing AWESOME!

My husband noticed certain joints hurting more for a while, he had gotten used to having fat pad things and it wasn't there any longer....I can't wait for it not to be there for me any longer, lol!

But he did find having a cushion on any hard chairs and a pillow between his knees while he slept helped a LOT!

I went to the er on Monday for pains and the er doctor said it was scar tissue growing around my stomach where they cut me. I had a GB in march. My pain is getting worse. I have an appointment with my surgeon in the morning.
My symptoms are:
Nausea
Stabbing under rib cage
Burning stomach when I eat or drink anything even water burns my stomach
Pain in my back on the left side

Has anyone else ever experienced these symptoms before and what was the outcome? I know it's not my gallbladder because that was removed in 2008.

If your doctor says it is adhesions, why do you think it is ulcers?

Topic: RE: can we eat cooked cabbage? l

I love, love, LOVE cabbage in just about any form, my nutritionist said it is a HIGHLY gassy food and to beware if I was going to try and eat it. So I would start slowly, that is for sure!

I did get the Tazo Passion Tea Packs the other day, thats all ive been drinking. It is keeping me out of the drive thru. Thanks for your input on the Calcium chews. I think im going to stick with the BA, I am not allowed to take any sort of pills on my plan, only liquid of chewables. And i couldnt stand the Calcium Chewables I got from Celebrate, it was like I was eating Sea Shells, and the taste was horrible, to me.

I had my Surgery March 13th, and thank you! im pretty proud of myself just for how far ive come already, my life has deffinetly already turned around and improved for the better!
