RE: HELP please

[Guest guest]

Cheryl,

I do not know if they will do a phone consult as a new patient. If you are

a new patient and have not been seen by them ever then I doubt if they will.

One of the reasons is that insurance will not pay for a consult unless you

are physically seen. Another is that there are some physicians that MAY be

willing to talk with you over the phone but time is a luxury for them as

they are usually very busy ( as you know by being in the health care field )

and it would be a rare physician that would give up10-30 minutes of his time

to consult with a patient over the phone vs another physician. Another issue

is that of liability. I know that 380 miles away is a pain in the rear end

and I know that the activities of your children are very important. But I

can only tell you the relief that I felt once I traveled to Indy and saw Dr.

Lehman face to face and talked with him and his nurse practicioner. I chose

not to have the ERCP that day and did just the consult. It was worth every

dime I spent onn gas and a hotel. I know that emotionally I felt so much

relief that he was able to examine me in person and answer all of my

questions.

If you are not in extreme pain right now, can't you reschedule your

appointment for after the holidays when you are not so busy ? That alone

might decrease your stress, knowing that you can be hoime for the holidays

and then deal with the consult in January. I am sure they have folks lined

up for appointments that would take your Dec 5th slot. Just think about it.

But whenever you go, please be seen in person, it really makes a

difference.You just are so busy girl... slow down......don't let that GI

system start talking to you !!!!!!!!!

Lily,

I have been to see him before. Dr. Hawes put my last stent in. I will

go if he wants to see me. I have already have someone to watch the

kids, and transportation for my daughter to one of her compititions (

it is out of state). I may even be back for it. I just put them

through so much being sick, that I just feel bad that I do not get to

see her at her best.

I just talked to Dr. office and she is going to talk to him, but I

still plan on having to go. I already rearranged my schedule at work,

and my husband is waiting to see if he has to take the time off.

I have always said that the word relax is not in my vocabulary. I am

scheduled to work 72 hrs between now and the 3rd. Although two of

those days are tenitive.

But I really appriciate your advice. I am relatively new at this CP

and out of town stuff and I am not sure what I should expect.

Thanks again ,

Cheryl

I think that only an ortho and a surgeon can give you these answers.

It is possible that if things are enough askew to one side or the

other, your occlusion isn't exactly what you think it is. Why not

go see the experts, and ask them. Whether insurance will pay depends

on what it is you need, and what your policy says.

Good wishes to you.

Here are some phase II oatmeal recipes, not all cookies. Carol

Oatmeal Cookies

1/2 c. uncooked oatmeal

1/2 c. egg beaters

1/2 c. cottage cheese

2T soy powder

2t. cinnamon

1T vanilla extract

3 packs Splenda

Mix this altogether. Then fry like pancakes.

Oatmeal BarsRecipe By : Serving Size : 12 Preparation Time :0:00Categories : Cookies, Bars & Squares DessertsAmount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method-------- ------------ -------------------------------- 2 cups oatmeal1/2 cup whole wheat flour3 Tablespoons canola oil2/3 cup unsweetened applesauce2 eggs1 cup splenda3/4 teaspoon baking soda1/2 teaspoon cinnamon1/4 teaspoon nutmeg1/4 teaspoon salt2 teaspoons vanillaMix all together and put into a 9 inch square baking pan. Bake at 350degrees for15-20 minutes. Cool, cut into bars. ( I cut them into 12).This original recipe was Chocolate Oatmeal Bars and had a 1/2 c. chocolatechips. Ididn't add them for myself because I wanted to be able to have these for abreakfast treat with my coffee, and choc. causes cravings for me. So I leftthemout. You can add them back in if you'd like.These are a moist cake like bar. Kinda remind me of the Quaker OatmealBreakfast Squares. I did do a bad thing and used the quick oats because Ihave awhole box and wanted to use them up. So I'm guessing that if you use oldfashionedoats the texture would be a little different.(probably better). Enjoy!

Remove from oven to cooling rack . Spinkle brown sugar evenly over top of oatmeal. Using the back of a spoon spread it thinly across the top of the oatmeal.Return to oven, bake just until sugar melts, about 2-3 minutes. Set oven to broil and broil 3" from heat until sugar bubbles and browns slightly, 1-2 minuets. watch carefully to prevent burning.

You can eat them either. You can eat them with syrup like pancakes, hot. And you can eat them like a cookie, cold. They are not greasy, at least I didn't find them to be. Probably depends on how much oil you put in the pan. Carol

I was thinking about making these and am wondering what sugar-free maple

syrup is? Does this mean pancake syrup? Or is there an imitation maple syrup

that is sugar-free?

Thanks,

Name brand Benadryl tablets are GF, so is the dye-free liquid. I

called on Target Benadryl a while back, and it was GF too.

Good luck!

Rhiannon,

Nasty thing, rashes. Someone already

confirmed Benadryl for you. Here are the reminders of what to do for contact

dermatitis (of which I am the queen)—because when you’re in the

middle of itching, you forget everything. I do anyway. I’m assuming you’d

suspect right away if it was DH.

Review everything that touches your skin,

trying to recall if anything is different. You have to eliminate the

contactants. Fragrance is the biggest culprit in contact dermatitis. Sodium

Lauryl Sulfate will irritate the skin as well. Sometimes the base that holds

the Hydrocortisone cream can itself be irritating to the skin. (Rx version has

a gentler base, my dermatologist tells me.) Laundry detergent is a huge

offender. So are shampoo and other soap. Arm and Hammer detergent for sensitive

skin is good. Dove body and face soaps (Sensitive Essentials) are great and

really lush suds.

If it’s been there more than a week

without subsiding though, I’d say call the dermatologist. The Rx creams

are so much more effective.

Hello everyone-

Can someone please help me out. I am getting

this sort of rash that

has gotten worse. First it started out as a

small patch and I was

using cortisone-10. It seemed to help a

little bit, but it's still

not going away. I can't seem to figure out

what's triggering this and

now it's worse. I woke up today with hive

likes red little bumps all

of one thigh and a little on the other. I

also have bumps on my

forehead. I want to get some Benadryl type

stuff for the reaction,

but I don't see it on a GF list. Can someone

please recommend

something to me. I am very itchy and

concerned.

TIA

Thanks...I have been racking my brain all day trying to figure this

out. Something has been bothering me for the past week or so to

begin with. I tried using a different shampoo and conditioner. I

have very thick, wavy/curly, blond hair that gets very oily if I

don't wash it everyday. I have tried many things and although they

don't contain gluten, some things still bother me. So, I have this

annoying itchy acne looking stuff on my neck all the way around and

my head itches like crazy. If you have any suggestions for that I

would be glad to hear them. So, as for this other thing going

on...I am still not sure of the trigger. The detergent hasn't

changed, my lotion still the same, body wash the same, etc. etc.

The only thing that I can think is that we had to take our little

cat in last night to the vet for and emergency. I have trouble with

him sometimes, allergy wise, and I can only come up with that it

might have something to do with the vet's office. I don't know????

Anyway, thanks so much for the input.

The shampoo and conditioner my

dermatologist allows me to use (!) is called Free and Clear. I find it at CVS here

(Boston). If

you google it you can find other retailers. They make a hair spray also, but no

gel or mousse. You should probably eliminate those for a while until you’re

clear, if you use them. The shampoo should do very well for thick, oily hair. I

use it every day also.

Don’t forget that natural fragrance

can be as irritating as synthetic. I can’t put lavender on my skin—how

sad is that?

It is possible to develop a sensitivity to

something that’s never bothered you before (sort of like your body

changing ingredients instead of Mc’s) (Sorry).

Any new medication? Nail polish can cause

a rash on the face (fumes, I think). Sunscreen? Fabric softener, dryer sheets. I

don’t know what would be in a vet’s office, probably lots of

things. You could call them of course.

And really, call the doctor and get in

while the rash is blazing so she/he can really see it. Go straight to Derm, do

not pass primary care. Good luck.

Laurie

By chance have you put sun block on your face or neck lately?

We'd used Water Babies for our little celiac for 4 years, and then

last summer I decided to try the spray on instead of the rub on

lotion. Of course, this was at Marine World, during the dolphin show -

which he ended up seeing none of. He developed a red rash and HORRIBLE

ITCHING everywhere the lotion had touched and even areas just near by.

I carry Benadryl for him at all times (with as many allergies as he

has...) so I gave him that, and then rushed him off to the first aid

office, where I literally suck his head and neck in the sink and ran

water over him for about 10 minutes, until the worst of the itching

stopped. I had to throw away his shirt that had the sunblock on the

collar.

I contacted the company, and they were very helpful. They told me the

actual sun block is the same between the 2 products, but the

thinners/propellants in the spray on formula " can cause some people to

have topical reactions " - I'll say so!

So maybe you are using what you're thinking of as the same old

products, but in a slightly different format?

We have not had that happen with Sun Block but my older sun has had reactions to shaving creme. Granted, that is a few years off in your case but food for thought! marcianar wrote: By chance have you put sun block on your face or neck lately?

Nope...no sunblock. It's been snowing for a week and the average

temp. here is about 20 degrees, so I haven't had a need for

that. I still can't figure out what's going on. I woke up

again with a rash all over my thighs. AARGH!! I have been using

the same detergent for a couple of years and have never had

problems. It's an allergy free something, so I don't think it's

that. It's possible that I could have developed some sensitivity I

guess. I called my Dr.'s office and I think I am going to have to

go in and get checked out. I guess my next step after that is going

to be having allergy testing done again. I had it done about 5

years ago, but maybe things have changed. I don't know what to

think. ?????

Laurie, I am also allergic/bothered by lavender AND eucalytus...it is in so many lotions and relaxation things.....I have fibromyalgia and heat and such is recommended (so I have to have homemade hot packs, since they all have those inside! They also tend to have oats or some other such thing). I cannot be near Lavender or Eucalyptus, or I get all filled up and start sniffling and get red, itchy, watery eyes.....

For years I have been bothered by fragrances (some) anyway! Since I was a teen, I knew I was allergic to something in Estee Lauder fragrances. Especially Beautiful. Know how I know? I was walking THROUGH the store to the Mall entrance and someone working there, sampling, and without asking, just sprayed it on me and my friend. I was instantly sneezing and VERY flu like...I complained HUGELY to the store.

I am also bothered by different chemicals. For example, the other night I had a sleep study done. The glue/cement stuff they use to attach the electrodes to your head was very bothersome. I got all stuffy...again, the next morning, the stuff they use (Collodian I think she said) to remove the electrodes also bothered me, worse than the other stuff!

I think when one has an intolerance, there can be many....and they can just gradually creep up on you!
