Carrie, great wow moment at the hockey game.

The vitamin deficiency scares the crap out of me. There seems to be so many issues with your body lately...I am concerned for ya. Hope the new vitamins help you some and the numbers can get to normal range.

I have followed you from long ago and always thought your protein levels and intake were excellent and more than I get in. I wonder if the gallbladder has something to do with it.

You have taken some great steps in your health.....way to go girl. Keep on top of it and let us know how it goes.

thanks lisa, you have been there for me since the first day i joined this board, you have been an amazing support for me and i thank you for that, you are looking so good girl, i am so proud of you!

will keep ya posted for sure, and you do the same, i look for updates under your story, i love to hear how you are doing as well.

had my ultrasound to confirm gallbladder problems or not yesterday, is it possible the squishing and pressure from the machine stirred up problems, i had a bad attack middle of night before ultrasound and so was a bit painful when going in, but now it just plain hurts and worse since ultrasound.....will be 3-4 business days before my doc sees the report, due to easter weekend i am guessing i wont get to know anything before tuesday next week,

i will be in the hat thursday to sunday for easter at the in-laws, if i have an attack maybe i can see if my surgeon is on at the hospital there and go in for a visit with him

now for my pouch, on sunday, i had some pain in my pouch after drinking some crystal light, waited 45 mins, tried to eat, more pain, so i sipped as much as possible that day, but still pain, my insides kinda felt like they were swimming/drowning, maybe too much too fast? not sure, but yesterday and still this morning, pain if i eat or drink, but no pain through the night or this morning until i tried to drink and take my vitamins

i am very nauseaus and think that is because of gallbladder, but now pain when eating/drinking? pissy pouch? maybe it will go away on its own? but what else could it be? when i do drink or eat, it hurts and i feel sick, more nausea....okay done complaining, just stumped.

I never even had pain with my GB until the ultrasound.. then it was non stop- never abated until they took it out.. so yah I think they move stuff around. Go sit on your surgeons doorstep.. and refuse to move until he takes that dam thing OUT OF YOU!

okay so i called the docs office to see if my ultrasound report was back, and it was, it had been filed in my file as there are no signs of abnormalities in the gallbladder, pancreas, aorta, kidneys, spleen, etc....i had a total abdonminal ultrasound done, and no explaination as to why these attacks of pain are happening.........so now what?

LisaBoston · 04-04-2007, 11:23 AM

Why are they filing it away if there are abnormalities..should they not be dealing with this!!! You can't go on in pain forever! Keep on them girl for an answer..........

chilmoe · 04-04-2007, 11:30 AM

they said there are no signs of abnormalities anywhere, so i am stumped, i asked them to send a copy to nohr and have left a message with nohrs office as i am hoping he will see me

i have an appt with my family doc tomorrow to do the recheck of my vitamin levels, so i will see what else he has to say about this

i will get to the bottom of this!

Carrie, it's not fair that you have the pain and no answers still!!! Keep at 'em, girlfriend! We can always send Jen or someone up there to whoop a**! Heck, I bet we'll get a lot of volunteers for that.! I'm sending you a <<hot cocoa hug>>. It's what we need on a cold, wet, windy, sleeting day!

Nope.. she doesnt get it fixed.. Im gonna go get her and bring her to the states.. where she wont have to wait for months to find out there were no abnormalities... and where.. she wouldnt leave the ER the FIRST visit without better answers than she has gotten in almost 2 months. Grr..

Sorry baby sis.. guess Im still a little torqued LOL.. Still.... think doorstep!
