I AM BACK

I am back after too long. I finally bought me a notebook, I gave up the Blackberry (I don't know about you but I hated it) soo back in business. To update my health status I am not doing much better but the doctors have made me much more comfortable with a drug name Robinul it has allowed me to be able to leave the house alot more but some days I do have to preplan my outings and I have to know where the restrooms are, After almost 2 years of suffering with a pancreas problem I think I can safely rule out cancer but I did not have a biopsy of the pancreas the specialists at Cleveland say I don't have enough markers to warrant taking a chunk out of a vital organ (quote) but keeping my weight up has been a nightmare I weigh 93lbs down from 150lbs but I am normally running 96lbs like 3 pounds are going to make a difference I eat like a hog I take supplements and my snacks are really small meals I miss my old body, my skin looks like drapes my hair is thinning to where its hard to style my face is so wrinkled I look 90 years old The doctors are waiting for me to reach 120lbs before they can remove a bowel blockage that they feel is causing the pancreas to be deficient I have Barrett's esophagus a hiatel hernia a bulge in the stomach called a ditickulum(spelled wrong) I refused to go to the National Institute of Health in Maryland I told the 3 specialists I am seeing if Cleveland Clinic one if the worlds best hospital can't help me I'm not going to Maryland (my fear of being alone would probably kill me that far away from home so I take 8 different kinds of meds a day and I have left it up to the Lord, He knows the outcome, But my life is happy, I have decisions to make but all decisions have been tabled until my brain gets more fat I didn't know our brains need fats but doc said don't make any major decisions my church attendance has greatly been affected it is far to embarrassing to get up during the service to go to the restroom staying in there a long time and coming out pale as a goast sweating and so weak I feel I can't make it back to my pew my church is so understanding but lets face it no women wants people to know about an annoying restroom problem. As soon as I learn to post pictures I sure will. Thanks for all my followers who have probably wondered what happened to me I appreciate you all Love Becky
