Title: Not the C word...
Post by Ree on Nov 8th, 2006, 5:48pm
I got a diagnosis... and its not Cancer.  
I have H. Pylori which is an infection that causes ulcers. So the damage is an ulcer associated to the HPylori and gastritis. Who knows how or when I got it... all I know is I haven't had a voice since my Mom died last Nov 11th and then some before that.  I thought it was stress...
I am so glad to hear I don't have Cancer but I'm not out of the woods because the therapy to rid myself of this is a rigorous bunch of drugs that will probably make me feel yukky...I am very fortunate because if the therapy works I can be rid of the reflux, ulcer and hopefully for good.......then I can sing in the shower again...
I just wanted to say hi and I probably won't be around for a while.  Just know every day the sun comes up for me I pray for you.  Scott is back in Iraq and a Kiowa went down on Monday killing the 2 pilots.... He is flying one of 8 (now one of 7) in country so we were really scared... but I didnt panic this time... you would be proud of me.

I love you all Ree

   So I guess calling you to tell you how happy I am for you is out of the question?  lol

     Not a day went by that I didn't think about you,  pray for you and wonder when you let us in on the results of those tests that made you crazy having to wait for.

 Now........go take your medicine lady.

Hey Ree... :)
Glad you're getting fixed, up.. always praying for your men out there.

I remember Ozzy and Lizzie2 posting about having H. Pylori a while back.  18 pills sheesh, that's like a meal in itself.  Hopefully it'll clear on the first try.

Take care, hugs to you,
Pep
