Hang in There, Bro !!

anyone heard anything..??

I have an Ultrasound and an Upper GI scheduled. Doc thinks it's the GB. Haven't eaten since Sunday. Thanks to all the well wishers.

This too, shall pass.

Good thing you went to the doc.. take care of yourself..

Thanks X. I've actually had the discomfort for about 2 weeks or so, but it didn't get bad til yesterday. Thought I had pulled a muscle. Funny thing is, I had to see a new doctor. I hadn't seen mine since '06 and apparently he's no longer practicing. You'd have thought he'd send out a letter or something. I prefer a younger doc, but this guy graduated med school in '51. He knew immediately what the deal was. He also liked the fact that I take no medication what-so-ever. I don't even take aspirin.

^aspirin is good for you, if your stomach is not empty.

"Oxy is better." Rush Limbaugh

LOL, that's why my doc isn't working anymore. He was selling Oxycotton prescriptions. Hey everyone has their skeletons.

D'oh!

Hope you feel better. The surgeon that took ny gallbladder out was my MIL's boss. Not a good feeling going under.

^

i could never let that happen-but then my mil has never worked a day in her life

My father in laws old practice, he's now retired, has a couple great surgeons in it. Like I said, I was out in 1/2 a day. And I had complications. But, it's also nice to have connections.

#31 I was sure to tell him before I went under.... GALLBLADDER!!!

Isn't the appendix on the right side just above the belt?

34: Aye, well, depends on how high you wear your belt. 😉

Ulcer - Recurrent vomiting, black stool, blood in the stool and anemia are some symptoms.

Getting tested. I hope it's not a hot nurse doing the Ultrasound. Hate to get a woody while she's rubbing around...

^ don't hide it.. she'll understand..

The test seems like forever but is painless, Nurse wont be on your mind when you are twisted like a pretzel.. Hope this helps..

^ lol you're right! I couldn't imagine a 3 pack a day smoker having to breath and hold your breath like that. She was an indian chick with a thicker moustache than me. No chance of wood here. I kept thinking of TW for some reason.

The upper GI was a trip! Now lay on your side, now your back, now your right side, now your stomach, now

WILL YOU MAKE UP YOUR MIND?! LOL!
