for Ruth

[Guest guest]

Talk about good news and bad news. I’m

glad you are cancer free Ruth. When I was on Chemo my Dr. prescribed some

sticky solution for my mouth. I don’t know what I would do going without

anti-inflammatory either. Wish I could be more helpful.

Hey all well I had the EGD and colonoscopy done

today. My Dr. wanted them done cause I am anemic and when I stop the iron

tablwets I continue to be so.

A few polyps in the colon that the Dr. removed. He

said no cancer.

He found several spots of bleeding in my stomach. NO

MORE ANTI-INFLAMMATORIES.

I wonder just what the heck I am supposed to take.

Sheesh.

The Ibupropher never made my stomach hurt or

anything. I really think it was the iron. Within 2 weeks of starting

the iron I was almost doubling over in pain so I stopped it.

Also, 2 days ago I developed sores on the hard palate in

my mouth. I think the body is revolting on me. My face looks

horrible again. I was outside a big portion of Sunday afternoon for my

daughters birthday party.

I was afraid they were going to cancel the tests this

morning when they took my temp. the nurse looks at me and says you have a

low grade fever. Well, nothing new I told her. It has been there

for months now.

I will have results of biopsies in one week from my

primary Dr. I am gonna bug him and see what I can take in place of hte

anti- inflammatories.

ALSO, Does anyone here have any suggestions for the

sores in the mouth. They are on the roof in the hard palate. I am

not sure what to do for them.

Thanks
