Hi everyone and thank you so much for the well wishes.. I am getting better, but it is along road.. Some days are better than others.. My husband raised the bed 9 inches.. now we just have to keep from sliding off.. lol..

I was talking with a nurse and she stated that bagged lettuce is a very big culprit of this disease.. they say it's washed 3x's and how do we know that it isn't dirty water.. She also said to be careful with buffets, etc.. Geez, it just makes you wonder.. I thought to myself.. I WASH MY HANDS, I WASH MY FOOD.. but you just never know.. so now i am paranoid.. I'm not sure I even want to eat out anymore, but i'm sure that will pass once this dang infection is over..

I can't tell you how much i appreciated all the help and concern.. makes me feel so much better already.. I wish you all well and great weight losses.. I'll keep ya posted on this story .. Hopefully it should be over.. I called my lapband dr. and told him what i had, but hadn't heard back yet.. I just want the reassurance that it's not the band.. I just want to get back to normal..

bye for now..

Becky, hope you get better very, very quickly! A friend of mine fighting cancer was told to rinse everything with apple cider vinegar. It's a natural germ killer and very cheap. It smells, but evaporates, and doesn't affect food tastes. Best of luck to you!

Hi and I am sorry to hear about your friend and cancer.. Mine sickness isn't so bad when you think of all the others out there.. thank you for the tip with the vinegar.. i'll try it.. i don't want this again..
