Hey Everyone!

I'm still here and doing a little better... Still don't have answers to what's going on with me but overall I am doing better.

I went in last week and had an abdominal ultrasound and the gist of the report says "nothing in abdomen to explain patients pain" SO, really no answers yet.

I do have an appointment on the 21st with my new GI, hopefully I'll like him as much as I did my last GI. I'm sure he'll want to do a colonoscopy and I am going to request an endoscopy as well since I haven't had one of those in several years and he might as well check out both ends while I'm in Hawaii... LOL

SO... I have stabilized as far as losing weight... and I am able to eat better and have more of an appetite.. BUT I still can't eat food that is too loaded with fat..

Still have blood occasionally but nothing as bad as it was back in 09'..

I'll keep you all posted but wanted to chime in and let everyone know I'm still here!!

Do you think there was something in particular that helped you feel better? I'm glad you do feel better!

Hello! Yes, those better days are a blessing aren't they?

I have this routine with coffee that others may frown on but every morning after two strong cups I basically get everything out!! I just don't want to worry about my gut during the day, and it seems to be working.

Take care,
John
