My pain has improved since yesterday



Recommended Posts

I have been posting for the last 2 weeks about pain in my port area due to a hematoma. I went in yesterday for the second attempt for my first fill. The first time I didn't need it due to my success in weight loss. Again yesterday I was told I did not need a fill yet since my success was still on going. I also talked to the doc about the pain on my side. I told her that it doesn't seem to be getting better but not worse. When she stuck me with the needle for the fill she said some blood came out. I don't know how much but she thought maybe it was from sticking me with a needle. As soon as I left I have felt 100 times better then the I have for the last 3 weeks:D . Even the bump that was on my side at the location is a lot smaller now. I am thinking that she may have relieved some pressure from the hematoma when the blood came out. I am having a CT scan tomorrow just for piece of mind that it's not getting worse. My insurance is changing and not being accepted anymore after the 1st. I am just trying to get things done before the 1st.

Well from one thing to another. I went into the CT scan today and they found that my large intesting may be twisted. The doc asked if I was in pain due to it looking twisted and me having a lot of gas. I have never felt better I told them and don't feel like I have gas. They want me to schedule to have a colonoscopy some time soon like after the 1st since my insurance is changing. I asked them if I would be ok they said well if you feel very sick go to the ER. Everyone please pray for me that I will be ok to make it to the new year for an appointment and procedure with the gastro doc. I know how long docs take to schedule but hopefully they can get me in soon.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
