My New Doctor Tried to Kill Me

Betcha thought I wasn't gonna post today, but no, it just took me a while cause I had to write back to one of my kids from last year, and oh, yea, I was sick most of today. Well, as predicted I just have to live with IBS and according to my new doctor (the head of the GI department) it has nothing to do with the fact that I have H pylori. He did want me to take some antibiotics to get rid of it though, beacuse it may be linked to stomach cancer later in life. So I did and I ended up getting sick from them. My belly is very sensitive to medicine, so I will not be getting rid of my H pylori since it's "not manditory" according to said new doctor.

He hopes to level out the peaks and valleys I have with IBS and lengthen the time between the cycles. So for now I am supposed to take double the recommended dose of fiber pills (up to 12 a day!), take 1 pill a day for acid, and this other med as soon as any pain starts. Yay. I'd love for this to work, but I've pretty much been through all of this before, so I'm naturally skeptical. But he has to see for himself that I really am a very "special" case. I'll give him a run for his money for sure. So there ya have it. *Sigh* Well at least my Dad took good care of me all day and brought me yummy stomach friendly foods. My mom also went for a walk with me since my new doc said I should walk every night before dinner for 30 minutes, but she ended up getting the car and picking me up down the street from their house because my legs got really weak cause I hadn't eaten enough yet. Anyhoow I'm home now and resting in my favorite spot on the couch with the remote in hand.
Chao Bella Baby!
