Doctor Appointment

Thursday, May 3, 2007
I should probably be in bed, but I wanted to tell you about my doctors appointment. This GI that I saw at the Med Center was fabulous! Her name is Dr. Young. I told her about what has been going on for the last month or so. She said the best way to figure out what is wrong is to go ahead and do the scope and the colonostomy (sp?). But, I'm considered a high-risk patient because of the ph and being on coumadin. She will need to get some extra help and I have to get off the coumadin and switch over to those "lovely" Lovanox shots before it can be done. So, scheduling the additional staff and the coumadin issue means I won't be having this done until this Thursday, the 10th. Actually, after hearing what has to happen, I can't believe it can happen that soon! In the meantime, she told me I could take my reflux medicine twice a day to see if I can try to get a few more things down. All in all I think it was a good day. We have a plan and the wheels are rolling. You can't for much more than that!

As always, thank you all for being here.
love

Hi Annette,
You should be in bed...but I am so happy to have the update. I think of you all the time, and now can know just how to pray. I will be praying that the temporary time on the shots goes smoothly. You are in my thoughts.

Well this is a step in the right direction! Before you know it, the 10th will be here, and hopefully you'll get more answers. You'll be in my prayers, as usual!
Love
Colleen :)

Annette, I have had those shots and they aren't as bad as they sound. I am glad you liked your doc and pray that your increase in pills helps with your appetite/nausea issues. Jacque

Annette,
I am so pleased you have a plan in place and that you really connected with Dr. Young. That always helps. We were all praying for you yesterday. Hopefully these changes will help you gain a little strength and a few lbs. The 10th will be here before we know it.
Hugs, Diane
