I had my phone stolen in the ER while acting as an advocate for a friend with a pancreatic emergency after gall bladder surgery. Imagine! So I lost everything and am just now getting to your unhappy news.
My friend Gary has had 2 ERCP procedures this week and finally they transferred him to another hospital 20 miles away to fperform an endoscopy ultrasound to remove a 10mm stone! Now he has pancretItis and may have to stay a few more days.They also found a very enlarged prostate and a cyst on his pancreas which may be cancerous. This is a guy who has never been sick or hospitalized. I am using all of our knowledge and experience that we get here at Connect to bring him out of his frustration and nasty mood..lol
You seem to be going thru something similar. You must be exhausted and wondering what comes next. Just know I am thinking of you and praying for God to give you strength and the doctors the skills to get you back to your happy life again.

@jeanne5009 ..I am so sorry to hear about your phone. Seems like there are no 'safe' places anymore. I am nervous about this 2nd ERCP as I also developed pancreatitis with the first attempt. Because of that they admitted me to hospital twice and this time I'm not going home until we know for sure I recover fully. I am tired but have a great system worked out with my nurses to deal with the pain and nausea. Thanks for your healing thoughts.
Jeanne, How awful for you to have your phone stolen. How wonderful that you stick with your friend at his side. One day at a time, I hope and pray that his condition improves.

@jeanne5009 I hope your friend is doing well, he is lucky to have you there for him.
That's terrible that your phone was stolen! When I was in the hospital I was sent down for an endoscopy. When I was "under" someone stole my brand new UGG slippers off my feet! I was furious, they were a gift, and they are not inexpensive.
