Thanks so much! I'll check it out as soon as my allergies calm down. lol Labs done but no results yet, and the colonoscopy is scheduled for 5/25. I know what to expect with that ... have Crohns so this is done at least annually. Thanks again!
Thanks for asking, Colleen. Had the colonoscopy on 5/25. Procedure went well with several polyps removed. The anastomosis from the small bowel resection (years ago) is showing stenosis and 'ulcerative' features. In the afternoon, developed a low grade fever of 101.4. Called the GI and was sent for an abdominal xray to rule out a bowel perforation. Proved not to be the case. Slept and rested for almost 2 days and finally felt better. No idea what caused the fever. That process certainly took my mind off the pancreatic cyst. Will see the Gi again in July and hope to learn of the polyp biopsies. Thanks for the support here. Am currently dealing with a new BP medication and as I do research on that (Bystolic) learned I shouldn't be taking a beta blocker at all as I also have PAD. Sorry, I know this probably sounds rambling, but a lot going on. Oh, and the MRI didn't show the cyst because I had gone to an open MRI, which caused the Gi to be a little upset. I told her I had no idea the open MRI was inadequate and she said, now you do. She hasn't rescheduled that yet. Thanks for listening..
Bonita: My best to you as you try to worry less. If we can reduce our worries by just a "smidgen" it can do us a lot of good and help us in the healing process.
