ursol Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Just when I think I'm out, they drag me back in!! I was having fun and feeling good and now all of a sudden I have severe abdominal pain. Had bloodwork and an x-ray today, going for an abdominal cat scan on Thursday. I hope they figure this out quick because I'm flying to Orange County, California on Monday for meetings. Can I just say that it is excruciating pain...Yuck Sorry I have not posted much but I try to read what is going on with everyone as often as I can between work, the kids, dinner, laundry, my garden, my scrapbooking and my new love of "facebook".

recce101 Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Here's where it gets weird with us guys -- we hope it's something "normal" like a kidney stone or inflamed appendix. While you're waiting for the CT scan, I hope you were given something for the pain. Aloha, Ned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don M Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Ouch! It is probably something baneful, but not as bad as cancer. How about a nice simple ulcer? Don M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandraL Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Hi Lillian. My hope is for something normal as well, that they figure it out darn quick and give you something for pain in the meantime. Sounds weird. Please keep us posted and take good care. Sandra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fillise Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Yup, we all know how the mind goes spinning with any pain now. I'll keep a good thought and let us know when you fnd out something. Susan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ursol Posted July 27, 2008 Author Share Posted July 27, 2008 CT scan showed no clear reason why I have abdominal pain and it has begun to subside. But the CT scan showed something near where my surgery of the adrenal gland was and it appears to be getting larger. the Dr. is concerned that the cancer could be back. Next he will get an opinion from my surgery then possibly a biopsy. Life sucks. Anyhow for now I'm off to Anaheim for a few days and won't think about it.

SandraL Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Enjoy Anaheim Lilly and try not to think about it too much. I am sorry you are going through this worry. Positive thoughts and prayers for you. Sandra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaroleHammett Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Dang! Sending positive thoughts your way... hopefully, it's inflammation. Carole In 1960, Americans spent 17.5 percent of their income on food and 5.2 percent on health care. Today, they spend 9.9 percent on food and 16 percent on health care.
