Hi Girls,

I haven't been on here in a while. My computer at home had been down and I've been sick again. My doctor has me on another diet. Very low fiber, no dairy,
no fresh veggies, or fruits, just meat and potatoes, No caffiene, no chocolate,
No fruit juices or sugars. I can have tomatoe juice. He also has me on predisone
30 mg a day. I hope something starts working soon. I know this sounds crazy but I'd love to gain 10 pounds. If things don't get better I will have to have another scope done and maybe a cat scan. I just want to feel better.
Sorry to go on. Hope everyone else is doing well. Thanks for listening.

I am so sorry! I can only imagine what it must be like to feel badly and have such a restrictive diet. My husband feels badly everyday and I know he gets very very frustrated. Hopefully, the prednisone and special diet will get everything under control! And I hope you GAIN TEN POUNDS!!! LOL! I can't believe I actually said that!!!

Linda, I hate that you're still not feeling well. Have you gone to a specialist or someone other than your regular Dr.? I sure pray they can get this under control for you.

Thanks Ladies for all your thoughts and prayers. Yesterday was a bad day but I'm feeling better today. I haven't missed any work thank goodness for that.
The girls at work have been very supportive and that helps. I go back to my gastro dr next week. Then I'll find out if I have to have another scope which I'm sure I will.

Linda, I'm so sorry that you're not feeling well. It sounds like you're really dealing with a lot. I can't imagine having such a strict diet and expected to gain weight. Take good care of yourself and I'll be praying.
