well, interesting day GP can't workout why the nausea so she got me to do a pregnancy test just to rule that out ... she said looking like probably not but then she said still early days to tell due to where my cycle is ... and she looked very surprised that my i can't remember if she said progesterone or oestrogen level came up high on the pregnancy test giving the notion of maybe i could be preg ?? Anyhow, she's not focusing on that thinking it's more likely NOT preg ... Anyway, BP wasn't too bad and she sent me off for blood test (4 nice vials, LOL) & another urine test today for different things one seeing if i have diabetes, so i hope to crikey it's not that ... bad news is test results don't come back until a couple of days and GP is booked out (due to public hol too) so i don't see her until next Tues arvo ... so will keep you updated then
Well I"m glad your GP is being thorough about it...I'll admit diabetes crossed my mind (fingers crossed for you it ain't that) so I guess all you can do is sit tight and wait.
thanks MD , yeh it crossed my mind too and yep so hope it's not, no one in my family has it ... and i wouldn't describe myself obese and sure not an unhealthy eater as i'm careful what i eat so it would be a huge shock if i am, just hope the GP might think to ring me earlier than next Tues as she said results come in about 2days but then she knows i'm booked in to see her next Tues so more than likely she won't ring. She did say to not to hesitate to ring her if the nausea worsens which it has been so far so at least that's comforting to know i can contact her. Just hope i don't stress too much in the meantime ... hopefully the Easter Bunny might bring me some good news !!
....... Cheers for now xOx
Not much help from me either as I am only 4 days post op!
I had to go back to hosp the dau before last as I could not keep any food or water down since before my op ( week and a half) and I needed to.. turns out that I was very constipated (sorry TMI) and once that was given something to help "pass" (pardon the pun!!) I was all ok to go!!
Apparently the drs told me that its not uncommon to have relapses after the op and even think that you are goin through it all again as your body "forgets" you have had your GB removed and starts the pain again..
I am taking eating slowly and just eating fruits and meats and veggies - no fast foods and no fats - infact the thought of fast food makes me feel ill... my attack was bought on my a meal of Maccas and I was kept in hosp as my GB was looking like rupture..
Thanks Kate ... yeh posted on your recent thread which you prob saw (like i said please don't hesitate to PM if you ever need even the craziest info as i have found somethings have been trial & error )
... me too yuk feel sick at the thought of any takeaway now.
Your doing pretty good Kate as i have cut out red meat also just hasn't agreed with me & that i read it's not recommended after GB removal as hard to break down (doesn't matter for me as not a big meat eater anyhow, lol).
Yeh i was the same lots of veg & fruit ... and the odd zooper dooper icypole.
Certainly keep away from grains OMG big NO NO, i had kind of by accident a slice of bread with grains on the top of loaf and wow that was a time on the loo, sorry TMI.
Kate have you checked out what to eat & not eat ... plenty of websites around saying pretty much the same. If it makes you feel better my health concience BIL who's a PE teacher had his gallbladder removed only couple of weeks ago ... so goes to show can be anyone
Took me about 3weeks until i felt comfortable about eating but then my serves are smaller and much more healthier than before. Cause our liver is now working overtime and much harder i feel i owe it to my liver to be careful as i don't wanna find out in 10years time my liver is stuffed as can't take that out like a gallbladder ... sadly as you prob were told the liver can now get stones, so yeh gotta be extra careful still for that reason too.
All incisions healed up super quick although bellybutton was still sensitive after several weeks. But pretty good now !!!
............ Take SUPER care Kate, know we are in it together
Thanks Smiles! I certainly will give you a PM when I need info!!
I didnt really think about my poor liver now.. Hmm even more of a reason to just be good to myself and what I eat!
I must admit that I have indulged in some easter eggs... Hmm choccolate may be my one and only vice!!
I will have a look on the net about foods to eat and not eat.. didnt really think about it! Hospy just said that some foods may react and some may not.. hmm interesting!!
Hope you are feeling better than the other day Hun xox
