Hi friends!
Valli - glad things are ok. Not sure what the watery yellow is about... how's your gall bladder? I remember my surgeon saying it gets full of liquid until you eat something (he was telling me to have a little snack an hour or so before a morning CT scan so my gall bladder wouldn't look enlarged...)
3 TC, glad things are what they are.
I'm in Connecticut, about 70 miles from NYC, in a community that normally has a lot of NYC train commuters. I've had one death in extended family and several in my congregation, but my immediate circle is fine. I've been working my tail off, suddenly working completely from home and learning the tech to bring everyone else along, lol. And though I've always worked some from home, so "boundaries" have always been a challenge, not when I get a call or email at a weird hour I'm afraid it's an Emergency!! - so I answer it. Not good. Too many 12 hour days and not one off in ages. (I did take a few hours this afternoon.
Long story, but I had my 2 year post start-of-chemo CT scan last week (it was supposed to be Feb and there was a screw up) and it was all clear! and they had told me the first 2 years are the most dangerous in terms of recurrence. So - hooray!
I go about 5 times a day, basically 3:30 or 4 pm until about 9pm, unless I've eaten something odd. (I had a lot of popcorn yesterday! and paid for it today. Worth it, lol!) Normally I'm good overnight, again, depending on diet - so I don't let it freak me. I sip water until bedtime, so I need to get up i the night to pee anyway!
I've thought of you both and all my other friends on here! Stay safe -
Song so happy to hear your check up came up clean . I can’t imagine the relief you felt . Sorry to hear about
a family remember passing
🙏
And I have thought of you guys often. It’s nice we can reconnect on here .
Hope you can ease up a bit on work . In the last 20 years I haven’t had a lot of time off only to give birth to the kids and maybe a month each time . I have been out of work since March 12 and loving it . The kids and I walk everyday only problem it’s so dam cold only once could we wear shorts otherwise it’s winter jackets and winter hats on everyday day. Unfortunately due to my pouch not being able to hold much I have used the forest one too many times as a bathroom . Thankful my children are understanding and always have my back.
Regarding the gal badder I can look into that once things
open up . To me it looks like stomach bile its usually bright yellow and only happens early mornings . I don’t eat after 7pm dinner is at 5 then I have a yogurt or a few rice crackers with hummus around 7 as a snack. Sometimes cereal but not often . And always the yellow liquid in the morning not to he graphic but it’s like a running tap . Ohh well think it’s just the way my pouch empties.
Stay healthy and hopefully things will return to normal soon enough.
