Another update.

Sep 04, 2009

It's been a little while since I've posted anything so here goes the latest.  I had my 2ND Endoscopy and the ulcer had cleared up..(thank Goodness). So the doctor stated that he would give me a clearance for surgery...yesss.
 
So now I am just finishing up my last couple of nutrition visits and hopefully I will be getting a date pretty soon.  I have been faithfully taking my medication like clockwork and seeing my PCP to monitor things so that there is nothing (health-wise) to stop this surgery from happening.  The biggest part of all of this is the waiting.  But then anything worth having is worth fighting for..

When I last saw my PCP, he informed me that my labs came back and all my levels were low.  So I started my vitamin regime (multivitamin, B-12, calcium..all that good stuff) and I can actually say that I do feel a little better.  I have also been trying different protein shakes while trying to get use to some.  Some of them are gross and some of them are pretty good.   I have been learning a lot from my nutritionist about the things I will need after the surgery.  I just need to work on getting in more water.

That's it for now, I will post more when I get more news.
