Follow up telephone call.....

Feb 17, 2009

From Dr Loggins!  He called me yesterday just before 5pm as I was leaving my mom and dad's house.  He said Michael had filled him in on my call of last week and how Michael had put me back on Prevacid in case my pouchy pain was an ulcer again.  Dr Loggins explained some things to me and said he basically wants to keep me on the Prevacid for the time being (maybe 3-6months) and really get this "healed up well".  Then, he said we may try me off the Prevacid again.  He said that some RNY folks just need to stay on it, for whatever reasons.  He didn't see anything during the last endoscopy that looked like it should be causing me any problems (clips, etc) and so he didn't feel another endoscopy was needed at this time.  So, looks like I'll stay on the Prevacid for now and if I get symptoms again, they may follow up with another endoscopy......IF I get symptoms again.
Right now, pouchy is feeling pretty good again.  I get an occasional little ache, but nothing major.  Being back on the Prevacid seems to be making a difference!  Like I told Dr Loggins.......taking one pill is no big deal if it means I don't have to deal with the discomfort!  It's ALL good!   Even with the pain...........I STILL wouldn't go back and NOT have my RNY!  NOT FOR  MILLION BUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Dr Loggins!!!!!!
