Dalene,
Sorry to hear what you're going through. Same here. Been complaining to my
docs since last november...now they see the blockage and dilation just below
the duodenum and I can't get solid food past without vomiting. Been on pain
meds and liquids/smoosh for 6 weeks now. Having the fluid that's built up
drained on Thursday but now they want me to do a special endoscopy where I
swallow a micro-camera that will take pics every second over 8 hrs. The
problem is that it can get stuck where the obstruction is, leading to
immediate surgery. The docs think it's a good thing cause it will show them
right where the problems are. I am trying to see it their way...but the
pain, nausea and lack of food are getting to me.
Hang in there. I'll post when I have results.
