Ok.. This morning I woke up and my throat felt like there was something in it. Went to the sink and coughed up a cluster of blood, bright red. I'm thinking.. what the heck??!? Well after more came out bright red, sort of all over the sink, a few times. ale:Hasn't happened anymore..
But, last night I pigged out. :duh:Ate a bunch of fast food, relaxed on the couch. Got miserably uncomfortable, and my stomach swole so much I thought it would pop. :shifty-t:Went to bed, slept for 10hours. This morning the tumm was not quite as swollen.:yfrown: But still somewhat swollen.. (no surprise there though.. seems to stay that way these days)
I have an apt to see a GI (my 1st) on the 5th. Hopefully he will look in there. But wasn't sure if what i'm dealing with right now is very serious or not.
Have another apt on the 8th for a Head & Neck Dr to look at my thyroid.
Dont see my colorectal surgeon again for @ 1mo.
My Primary Care Phys just had me do some labs(bloodwork) this past Thurs. Seen her the Weds before (9-29) & she gave me a b12 shot. Then Thurs just back for bloodwork, then left to see my Surgeon for a followup. He said the incision looked to be healing good. Said i could quit taking sulfasalazine (my hair was reaping the hell of the sulfa), and started taking the Apriso.
I still have a lot of burping, etc.. dont know whats up. Sometimes have the acid come up.. (grose, i know. sorry)..
Please help, anyone! I dont know what's going on, and do not want to have to go to the ER again. Cant afford it anyways. Any suggestions? Or, has anyone had something similar?
