Guest guest Posted May 15, 2002 Report Share Posted May 15, 2002 Heidi, I guess by now you know I had neither the CT scan or the hysterectomy. I wound up in ER Tuesday a week ago because I blacked out. Had two blood transfusions, lots of potassium and have an abdominal infection. Yuk! No one will touch me for surgery right now. Also got diagnosed with diabetes. This hasn't sunk in real well. My former husband died of complications due to this. Kinda scared right now. I just find it amazing that 6 months ago, I was a relatively healthy person that took care of other people and now I feel so useless. I know there is a reason, but it sure would help my moral if I could find it out now. lol! Anyway, thanks for the flowers, I really do appreciate you being here. You are special. Hope you have a great day. Joy Re: Doctor Search/ to Joy Dear Joy, It sounds as though you have found a " keeper " with this new doctor, and I'm so glad that you were able to see someone that sounds so educated, compassionate and in touch with what's really been going on with this disease. It is such a blessing to find someone like that who will really listen and who treats you with respect for your knowledge and your questions. That's such great news! If we don't hear from you before then, good luck with your CT-scan and then the hysterectomy next Friday, and take good care prior to that. With hope and prayers, Heidi Heidi H.
