OK guys, I am home....

[Just Beachy]

Has anyone heard from John? Just wondering how things went today. I think he said his appointment was early this morning...

 

[RvUsa]

OK, I'm home, I got a little hangover, headache, but the test was a peice of cake... still a little loopy, and need a nap but I am alive.

It said 5.4cm same as the CT so who knows what is next?? This doc said he would call with results and I have follow up appt in 6 weeks, 6 WEEKS!!! are you kidding me?

I will be calling a doc at a real hospital monday morning LOL.

will be back when my head isn't kiling me, matt's popcicles are taking a hit right now, feels good on my throat after they shoved that garden hose down it!!! they gavve me 100 of phentnol, and 10 of versaid, saaid that was more than double what most get.... but I was wide awake throught the whole thing, I never even fell asleep till I got home.

later thanks for your support, I will probably have to edit this when I sober up to see the mistakes LOL

Glad you got one more test down, you're are getting close to an answer. Hope your throat is well enough to chat tonight.

You know, there isn't anyone on here at 1am, 2:30am, 3:30 am, and 4:45 am.....

This is kinda weird, I have had about 4hrs sleep total since thursday morning..... I am starting to think the loopiness isn't from the sedation today...

It's kinda hard to turn off that perpetual motion picture in your head when you should be sleeping, John. Worrying will do that to you.

Look at it this way, if the Dr said 6 weeks, it's something that needs attending to, just not immediately. You are going to be all right, John. It's scary, I know, but you will be okay. Just try and stay away from researching your condition on the internet. That just serves to drive you crazy.

We've got you covered in prayer. Sit back, relax, and let us & God handle this one!

Hope you're feeling better today John. For future reference, the anesthesiologist told my son that it's better to keep that drink (assuming the sedatives they gave you were in a cheap plastic shot glass) in your mouth for a while, swirling it around to let it get absorbed there, faster and quicker to the brain and less wasted on the rest of the body. Told him it was a quick tip on how to save money on booze while in college.

He then turned to us and said he probably shouldn't have said that out loud to a 15 yo. Gotta love a Doc with a sense of humor and a realistic outlook on life.

Glad to hear you are still with us ready to give it another day. Camping weather is here (a little cold, but here).

No fears John. You're simply not allowed to have any problems that would prevent us from camping together. It's that simple!

Here......here!!! I agree......I am waiting to meet you and many other "personalities" at a grand gathering some time soon! Still thinking of you and your family and sending more prayers your way!!

 

[Eeyore'sthebest]

John - Hope you're feeling alright. What's the next step?

 

[RvUsa]

Thanks guys, feeling a little better, still gonna look into getting a second opinion, and see what we can do about the WLS, I will keep everyone up to date!

Thanks so much for everyone's thoughts and prayers!!!

 

[ntsammy5]

I'de get a third opinion too! keep us up to date John. Will this impact your alcohol intake?

 

[Just Beachy]

John, just wondering how you're doing and what's going on with your Drs and appointments....

 

[RvUsa]

John, just wondering how you're doing and what's going on with your Drs and appointments....

I just don't know what to think and do now 3 Doctors, 3 tests, and nobody agrees!

So what to do.... we are going camping! LOL

Thanks for asking

 

[2goofycampers]

So you are taking my avatar advice, which was originally said to you.

 

[Just Beachy]

I just don't know what to think and do now 3 Doctors, 3 tests, and nobody agrees!

Thanks for asking

Maybe try a 4th opinion? Then again, the 4th Dr might not agree with any of the previous 3 either.... Could you go to a Dr in a different area maybe? Perhaps Philadelphia?

 

[Gatordad]

Go see a witch Dr......

I'd go to NY, the medicine is better there.

I'd just bring the results of all 3 DRs to each other and tell them "2 of you are wrong and shouldn't be paid, now which one of you will be paid?"maybe they'll come up with the right answer, which may even be a fourth!
