Medical Update for my friends

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone, Just an update on me: I had yet another surgery, this time for bowel blockage. The surgery I had in August for gall bladder removal/lymph node removal resulted in scar tissue wrapping around an intestine and strangling it. I'm doing better, but gut area is still weak from surgeon cutting into muscle tissue to get to intestines. So, with March hospital stay, May hospital stay, August hospital stay, and December hospital stay, I should be quite fine for 2006. I'm not sure that there's anything left that needs repaired lol. Surgeon said that the blockage is a contributing factor in my inability to gain all my weight back. The partial blockage caused me to feel full after meals, when in fact, I really was only 1/2 full. I plan on drinking LOTS of water going forward eating more fiber (though this is not what caused my blockage, scar tissue did) Please email me if you'd like. I'm on medical

leave again from work, so it's nice to get emails from friends. Yep, it gets boring here as I heal up. I am so optomistic that 2006 will be my year to shine healthwise. My health will get better and I'll be good for another 5 or 10 years. And...... HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love
