They are talking about doing a lap in Jan. Right now I'm trying to get
my strength back-before we got my diet straight I had gotten so weak I
could not walk across Wal Mart without keeling over. Thanks to the
enteral formula I'm actually gaining weight and having some energy. I've
got liquid roxycodone for pain and nitroglycerine works very well for
the worst spasms (now that was a lot of trial and error!). I have
Sjogren's syndrome so can't take drying drugs like Ativan. Very
frustrating.
My current doc is great(but not very hopeful) and my
dietician has been a real life saver.It hurt so bad to eat
I seriously wanted to end it all. Drinking the Peptamen
is a chore, but I sure feel better than I did this past
spring.
My liver enzymes were up in the 500, 550 range before they would even
consider looking at my gallbladder.Kept telling me it was "irritable
bowel"!
