 :2thumbsup;  Still moving forward! Forward is good! I know the last thing you want to is more surgery but as you said this is the putting it back together stuff, at least they're done deconstructing!

I'm firmly of the belief that always looking at the bright side can cause flash burns on your retinas...
Too many hearts and rainbows and you end up snow-blind from staring at the unicorns.

Hang in there, Kit!  Use the big stick as needed.

Holy Smokes! Barium enema today.  I am glad I did not eat this morning.  I would have barfed all over everyone.  The enema was not bad just flushing from the system took awhile.  My colon was not happy. I came home and took a nap and rested on a heating pad for a few hours.  Still nauseous, but lately that is the way it is.
I also went for blood work three sticks and they called for a vampire from the main lab.  Fourth stick was a winner for blood work.
I have a cyst biopsy on Monday. Last biopsy sucked rocks, so not looking forward to this one.

Last night dialysis My hands hurt so bad I came off the machine 45 minutes early.
I was crying at dialysis.
Came home and slept the rest of the morning away.
I am having nerve problems in both hands now since the ileostomy surgery.
They say it is from the sepsis.  I also cannot ear talking out of my left ear due to sepsis.
This all sucks beyond belief.
hi kitkatz hang in there my hands are paining me the last 9 months doc keeps asking me is it in both hands only telling him that for the last 9 months , nothing to fix the problem , this dialysis sucks loads i started doing 5 days in center when i started 2 years ago ,  seems a lot longer i cry all the time aswell never done that in my life . I  put it down to this illness and the bloody pills the boat load you take 4 times a day 7 days a week . I also think my hearing is going in the left ear and i havr developed a limp out of the blue , i hope you feel better real soon bye for now kitkats lots of love and luck for you.  :thumbup;

I had the biopsy today.  Oh what fun.  The biopsy itself was not too bad.  A few sticks of numbing meds and then a few clicks of taking the biopsy itself.
No real pain until several hours later.  I woke up aching in the area worked on.
Tomorrow med clearance appointment.
