Well It's officially day 10 of the antibiotic. I have seen some very promising improvements and believe it may have just done the trick. I spoke with my doctor yesterday and she said to just wait and see. If I feel like I'm healed we can cancel my surgery in January, but if it comes back in the next few weeks I need to keep it scheduled. So I have graduated myself from the chiropractor (I'm not convinced it was doing much but costing money and giving me a few moments of meditation each day) and will try to focus on managing my anxiety while I wait and see. The few times I haven't felt well I contribute to over eating (thanksgiving) and anxiety. So if I can control that and the problems stop then viola! No endoscopy........ Let's pray for that!
Scottie and his fiance Sara were driving through Utah on Sunday on their way home from Arizona and stopped by for a quick visit! It was so fun to see them and how happy and in love they are :) Thanks for making the time to stop by and for taking away all the treats in the house for me!
Ok, who is your doctor, and what's their specialty? I'm trying to find a doctor who can help me...if there is one. I am about ready to put myself on the "food-free diet" due to feeling sick all the time! I was in bed most of Thanksgiving weekend :(
ReplyDeleteStephanie, She is a Gastroenterologist in Pleasant Grove. Her name is Adriane Shaver (She is the PA of Dr. Hemmert) at the Central Utah Clinic. I liked her a lot. She's a specialist so you need a referral, but totally worth it! She was so sweet while I just cried in her office and was willing to do whatever I felt comfortable with.
ReplyDeleteAwesome, thanks! I've been shopping for a new gastroenterologist :)
