Surprising outcome from my colonoscopy

I am in shock......in the best possible way! 10 years ago I was diagnosed with collagenous colitis. I just had a colonoscopy on Monday and my doctor called with results from the biopsy and NO findings of any form of microscopic colitis. WoW! I thought this was going to be a lifetime ordeal. AMAZING!...

I have been doing acupuncture for a little over two years with huge success in lots of area's regarding my health. I went in to my appointment last week with MC symptoms, I wasn't certain I would make it through the 40 min treatment without dashing off to the restroom. I told my acupuncturist, he ha...

Hello....

I see so many new names......I am so out of touch! Welcome! I hate that I let life life get too busy, so many things that don't get attended to. I haven't given an update on my daughter in some time.

Update on Ashlee

Here is an update on my daughter Ashlee: She was kicked out of rehab a week before she was to graduate. She wasn't following the rules or going to classes etc. So that meant she wasn't able to come home and live with us. The deal was if she left or was asked to leave rehab she couldn't come home. Th...

Courtney bless your heart! I know exactly where you are at. I was there too. My doc had me on the highest doses of anti-depressants (2 of them) and it didn't help my depression. Most of the time I felt I could go to bed, stay there until I died and be totally fine with that. When your thyroid is out...

Update on my daughter

We just got home from "family weekend" at my daughter's rehab facility. Wow! I went expecting just to learn about the disease of addiction and didn't consider that it might be an emotional journey. I thought I had myself together and ready to take this on. I am so not ready! I need to chan...

Ugh, Ento lab tests on hold!

My hubby just had to have a root canal. 500.00 out of our pockets so my gluten and milk tests are out of the question right now. UGH! I am going to the allergist and see what happens.
