Hospital Stay Just before Christmas

I havent been able to keep down food and medications for months. They admitted me Tuesday. I am on IV phenergan, prednisone, protonics and morphine. I am going in today for an endoscopy and colonoscopy. I'm praying they find out what is going on so i can enjoy my holidays. I'm supposed to be scheduling a follow-up in Chicago soon. I need to call them and make sure my new insurance will approve it and see what kind if funding i can get. I figured it would be best to wait and call after all this testing so they know ahead of time what's going on. I will post an update after my testing!

Migraines and Pain

I have had a nonstop migraine for weeks now. I wish i were exaggerating. Unfortunately im not. Im hurting and i cant keep food down. I saw my PC today and she refilled my immitrex and started me on lamictal again. After that i saw my GI. Im hurting all over. I volunteered for just 2 hrs yesterday at a church event and spent all night and day aching and feeling like I was being stabbed. He restarted me on elavil. Ive already taken both meds with no success. Im praying they work this time around! I cant handle much more of this! Ugh!

In the Hospital

I have been in the hospital for 5 days. I was vomiting for weeks and hadn't used the bathroom in several days. Finally they gave me a laxative and I was finally able to go. I have been on a lot of fluids and nausea and pain meds. I get to go home today. Im keeping down my food and back on a regular diet. Im just hoping it stays this way. Im ready to go home and start watching Halloween movies and decorating. They never figured out what caused all this except that it's crohns. Ugh

I have PCOS

I was dealing with so much pain i went to the er. They saw another cyst but said nothing else. Thank God i had an ob gyn appointment the next day for my annual check up. She diagnosed me with endometriosis and PCOS. PCOS stands for polycystic ovarian syndrome. Im now taking progesterone to help with the symptoms. It makes sense with all of my pain and weight gain. Now i need to reassess my health. Ill keep you updated!

New Device for IBD

THIS SMART DEVICE GIVES YOU A 10-MINUTE WARNING THAT YOU MAY NEED A TOILET By Kenny Ong in New Products on Thursday 12 March 2015 Triple W is a Japanese startup based in California that has developed a nifty wearable device to predict your bowel movements and give you a 10-minute notice to find a toilet soon. Called D Free, the device is attached to your stomach and connected to an app on your smartphone. The sensors in the device can detect movement or swelling in your intestines and send a notification to your smartphone to warn you that within about 10 minutes, you should find yourself a vacant toilet. The app also records your bowel movements throughout the day to track your daily habits so as to give you even more accurate notifications in the future. Triple W predicts that D Free will be most relevant to folks who suffer from incontinence. It would also be welcomed by people in wheelchairs or with limited mobility, giving them ample time to find a toilet. In nursing homes, the device could cue busy staff on when to help their patients in such matters. Triple W is planning to raise production funds at crowdfunding sites. The company hopes to ship it to customers in the U.S. in May and Japan by December. It is priced at $US200 for now but Triple W hopes they can bring the price down to $US50 when they are able to mass produce it. After all, it is a matter of utmost urgency to some.
