Thanks for the prayers/good thoughts

It has been an interesting few days. I was in a lot of pain on Tuesday, so the Dr. called me in for another appt. She pressed around and said she was going to call in the other doctor. He came in and pushed around, and said he thinks there is a hematoma behind the port from me bleeding so much during surgery. He said it is very painful but it really can't be diagnosed or "fixed", so I just have to wait. He sent me for a CT scan because he wanted to ensure it had quit bleeding and that it was not my appendix.

I got a call back from the Dr. this morning at 0800 to say the test came back that my band possibly slipped and I needed to go for an upper GI. After fighting with the hospitals in the area, finally he had me go back to the same hospital I went to last night, because he was going to admit me today to fix the problem if there was one. Thank GOD, my band is normal on the inside, but I am very swollen. They increased the Motrin and want me to go back July 1 for another follow up. I probably won't be able to get a fill then either. It can take up to 6 months for the hematoma on a muscle to go away.
