He is the love of my life......

« on: January 23, 2008, 08:28:19 AM »

Well my friends, in a matter of hours i go see my surgeon regarding these deposits in my stomach.  I am worried that there is going to be nothing they can do for me, and i am worried of the words "if you would of come sooner" and i worried of having to go back to hemo.  I have been up since Lord knows what time this morning just thinking and thinking of what is going to be done to be, what is he going to tell me.  Please pray that he is nice to me and there is some "routine" that can be done to get rid of them (or at least stop them from growing) they are extremely painful and i am so tired of being in so much pain.  It has really taken affect on what little normalcy i had in my life.  Thank you, I love you all  :grouphug;

I'm sorry that you so anguished over this situation.  Hopefully something will be able to be done in terms of medication or perhaps diet that can help with this problem.  Try not to worry and just go in there with the attitude that the problem can be fixed.  I hope the visit will put your mind at ease and that you are on the road to fixing this soon.  Take care of yourself.

Life's a bitch and then you go on dialysis!

« Reply #7 on: January 23, 2008, 08:43:18 AM »

Susie my thoughts are with you. I do hope you don't have to go back to haemo, I know how much you hated it. Has the stomach problem been  affecting your dialysis adequacy levels? Let us know how you go on. I wish my arms would reach over the Atlantic so I could give you a big hug. :grouphug; :grouphug; :grouphug;

Surgeons can often wonderful things.  I hope this is one of those situations where you will say, "Why didn't I do this sooner"

this really bites, nina! i think all of us on P/D worry about this kind of thing happening and the possibility of having to go on hemodialysis.
i really hope that it is possible that they can offer some kind of solution, but like all things we dread, maybe going on hemo would not be as horrible as you have come to anticipate...

keeping a positive thought for a reasonable outcome.

love

Susie, I think we all could tell you have been in pain lately. You haven't been posting as much as usual, so I figured something was going on.  I am praying so hard that all will be ok and you won't have to go on hemo.  You bring so much joy to others everyday and I wish we could be beside you today. I hope you can feel all the love I am sending your way. I am beside you in spirit and will be anxiously waiting to hear what the doctor tells you.   Bigs hugs and good wishes :grouphug;

I hope everything turns out well for you today and they can solve your problem without you having to go to hemo instead or while things get better.  Keeping my fingers crossed (we need a finger crossing icon), so a BIG  :grouphug; will have to suffice.

Oh, Goofynina, I feel for you.
I will be praying that you will be at peace and all goes well.
And that you do ot have to go back on hemo.
I think when we think on a problem and are anxious over it, it
gets bigger and bigger.  At lease that's the way it is with me.
We all love you and are thinking about you and wishing you the
best.  You are such an encourager to all of us.  Take care.
