  1. Thank you!!! I actually have my son's hidden in my closet (he was extremely annoying with it after his Charlie Chaplin phase in high school) so I will get it out today. Better than holding it in for two hours. My poor hubby didn't get much sleep because I was shivering and my teeth were chattering. My hands were two ice cubes. I didn't want to wake him when...
  2. It was supposed to be 60 here today but snow instead. Staying in to make sure I don't get sicker before procedure. BTW, I bought those socks with rubber dots on bottom to wear to bed. I did wake up VERY dizzy his morning so I stayed in bed for an hour or two (thought my bladder would burst-TMI?). Bruise FINALLY healing and I am NOT going to fall again if...
  3. Wouldn't load for me either.

    So sorry to hear that. Will keep you in my prayers and send healing positive energy (I strongly believe in it)!!!! I had a herniated disc when i was younger. Didn't have surgery. Used a TENS (transcutaneous electrode nerve stimulator) machine (it was experimental then and I wish I still had it). It really helped with the pain. Loey
  6. Thanks Patti. Feedback I got was to not let my GI know I'm sick unless I get worse. I DO NOT want to have to reschedule biopsy!!!!!!!!!!!! Loey
  7. Here too. Klark forbid be to go out because I'm sick and still dizzy. He intentionally didn't clean off my car. Have a feeling this is going to be a COLD winter!!!!!!!!!!!! Loey
  8. Thanks, You guys all rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Loey
  9. It's our first snowfall IN RI since we officially live here!!!! There was snow when we were house hunting (especially in Connecticut) but it's beautiful today. Unfortunately Klark didn't know to put cars in garage. He did a really good job painting it and hanging a lot of things but still left enough space for both cars. I just sent him a link fro accuweather...
  10. ARRRRGGGH! Thanks for the phunny. I really needed it but couldn't open it! Woke up with a sore throat, Ice cube hands, dizziness and Klark thinks I have a a fever. I AM NOT CALLING GI ABOUT IT! Do NOT want to wait another 4 weeks for biopsy. Sorry for shoutiing. Just So frustrated!!!!!!!!!!!!! Loey
  11. Thanks, I didn't taper off the Donnatal (my bad). Just staying bed and checking the computer today. Cancelled the one appointment I had. I'm tutoring a girt with dyslexia for free and her mother was supposed to come over. WIll reschedule it. Thanks for always being so helpful! I +'d you! Loey
  12. Thanks Cass! Loey
  13. Should I let my GI know I have a scratchy throat if I'm FINALLY having ulcer biopsy this Friday I've been waiting for over 4 weeks.!!!! I woke up at 4AM FREEZING. Glad I stayed in bed until husband got up because I was dizzy (stopped taking Donnatal 4 days ago). I don't want procedure rescheduled!!!!!!!!! Don't have any other symptoms.Should I let...
  14. Thanks for the good advice. I was only eating apples. I do love mangos. I have an ulcer and will be having a biopsy this Friday. I'm avoiding anything acidic right now Not to sound stupid, but are pears or mangos acidic? I'll get either the psyllium or L-Glutamine. Just don't want to return to the big D . Loey
  15. P.S. Also using Hemp seed.
  16. Thanks so much for al of the info. I do eat a lot of rice- jasmine or basmati or rice noodles. I also eat brown rice. I tend to stay away from white rice. I drink Almond Breeze because I'm avoiding dairy right now. I was eating chicken but it got to the point where I couldn't stand the smell or taste of it. I think I'm turning into a vegetarian. I recently...
  17. I'm currently on the elimination diet - mainly eating rice, veggies, and eggs. I take fiber con (as per GI doctor) but am extremely constipated. Any suggestions from you wonderful experts? I prefer it to D but hey, I much rather be regular!!!! Loey
  18. Went to another concert with our son. This was an Australian Cover Band that does Pink Floyd and is endorsed by David Gilmore (they played at his 50th birthday). They were awesome. What's up with people talking loudly through an entire concert??!!!!!! This is the second one we went to in two weeks where it happened. The last one I nicely asked the guys...
  19. Thank you! this was really helpful, as was the previous response! Wound up using coconut yogurt. I was making gingerbread and I've recently moved to a new city/state. I had JUST found the new spice rack I had bought (with spices) an of course there was not any ginger or cloves. Turned it into cinnamon bread. My hubby and friends loved it but...
  20. Good luck pfoating. I know you'll do well. can't wait to hear about it. Now I really have to go cook dinner!!!!!!!! Loey
  21. Sorry for confusing pfolks here- I guess my response had rashelle cheating on Jess with BE. My bad!!!! Loey Thanks to Karannng I'm less confused!!!!
  22. That was what I was taking and I stopped yesterday. haven't had the grogginess or dizziness since. Initially it was making me sleepy during the day and I took a lot of naps. I know my GI doesn't want to give me serious pain killers (nor do I want to take them for several reasons). Initially the Donnatal didn't seem to cause the falling that happened three...
  23. He gave me that first and it didn't make me dopey but gave me the big D so I stopped taking it. The he gave me Donnatal and i think that was the culprit (It's a mix of belladonna and phenobarbital) because I stopped taking it yesterday and walked around all day yesterday and today with my girlfriends and didn't get dizzy or fall. Loey
  24. I'm Baaaack!!! Missed my psilly pfriends!!!! Had a phab time with my girlfriends. Spent a wee bit too much money considering I don't know how much longer UI is lasting and if I'll be able to get disability. I should be able to at this point. What I really want is to get well and get a job!!!! I bought little things for the most part (XMAS gifts and psilly...
  25. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Loey
