Thank you. I can tell that my symptoms are worsening as I have not lost an additional 7 lbs in just a week. The pain in my upper abdomen has increased and now I am having chronic diarrhea which may be related to a magnesium supplement I have begun taking for leg cramps. I have asked my doctor to order some additional lab work as the gastroenterologist advised me I was anemia and needed an iron supplement. My PCP told me not to take iron as it can sometimes cause diarrhea. Because I have been feeling so weak I have taken 2 slow release iron tabs in the past couple of days, but because of this diarrhea I have stopped with the iron. I am still recovering from the interstim surgery of one week ago, and admittedly not taking it as easy as I should be. I have asked for a second opinion. In fact, my gastroenterologist suggested I get one. Another Sutter Medical practice has a no second opinion policy, so my only recourse is going to San Francisco, which is a possibility. Needless to say, my stress level is high. I have not even watched the video for my new interstim device which has to be charged weekly for 30 minutes. The Medtronic representative tells me, "I explained everything to you in the recovery room after your surgery." I don't even remember seeing him at all. Oy vey, always something.
