Went to see Doc today x post

July 13, 2006

I saw Dr. Neal today so he could begin the procedure of trying to fix

my keloid scars. He used cortizone on 3 of them, he wants to see how

it works before going after the big port scar. I have to go back next

month for a check up.

Now I've gotta vent about something that I'm not really happy about.

In the last 2 months I've gone in for 2 fills only to come out with

less fill than what I went in with. I left the first and second time

looser than I came in. I know fluoros are so helpful but dang it I

know when I need a fill and can eat out the whole house. I have had no

issues with pb's, reflux, only hunger and able to eat way too much food

as it goes through the stoma easily. I'm going to give this " fill " the

weekend and call the office Monday and let them know what's going on if

I don't tighten up..and fast. Thankfully they aren't charging me for

any of this..and I am thankful for that believe me. I do have to go

back next month for the second round for keloids but until then I'm

praying it won't be another month like last...diet and starvation mode.

I don't have this kind of long term resolve or self control, if I did

I would not have needed surgery BUT I guess I did ok, I lost 3

pounds..yeah!!

Because I live so far from the office (4 hours) the fill lady gave me a

sterile needle in case I need an emergency unfill..I doubt I'll be

needing it ;-). Of course I was told to drink liquids for the

day...well I already could tell I was loose as a goose when I left the

office because I gulped down a large bottle of water in my car before

taking off. I always, always, always follow docs directions but I was

so ticked at knowing I was leaving looser (again) than what I came in

with I decided to put my theory that I know my own body to the test and

went straight down the road a ways to the Mexican food restaurant and

had a chili relleno and cheese enchilda AND refrieds AND dessert!.. I

could have easily eaten it all but bandster common sense told me not to

shoot myself in the foot..take half home, so I did. The fill lady was

already gone, office was about to close when I left so there was no

going back again. I am so disappointed with these last 2 fills I could

scream.

Thanks for the ear, end of vent..
