HELP! I DONT KNOW WHAT ELSE TO SAY!

[Guest guest]

Dear Group, I a once again reaching out with my greedy hand. I feel that I am at a total loss and the last 8 months has been for nothing. I am forwarding a copy of the letter I received from Dr. Falk. As many of you know I had a scope with biopsies done on the 15th of August and have been waiting for the results and the next steps in my medical treatment of this darn A. I called the Clinic several time only to be told they had nothing back but according to this letter Dr. Falk knew on 08/17/07. I received this letter on Friday 08/29/07. THE LETTER: Dear Mrs. West: Just a quick note to let you know that the biopsies from your esophageal ulcer reveal no evidence of ongoing herpers infection. There is evidence of a viral infection though. This is a run-of-the-mill ulcer. While there are fungal elements seen elsewhere in the e esophagus, it is unclear what

significance this has. When you receive , it is essential that you start acid blocking medications such as Prilosec OTC or prescription strength medication for acid blocker. The use of anti-fungal medications in your case is elective. I would only do this if the Infectious Disease service thinks that is appropriate. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely yours Falk, electronically signed. What the heck is this about and why is he acting like he doesn't even know that I am already taking Protonix 2x per day with no relief. I am done, I feel like I am swimming in circles in a scum filled pool. I have no idea what to do at this point except that I am really angry that this is all I get after the months of testing. I would like to scream at him Can someone

tell me where to go an how to pick myself up> The pain is so overwhelming. I am so tired and weak. Sharon I want to eat and swallow in Ohio
