last tuesday i went back to my gi doctor for my 4 month follow up. He noticed i have lost weight, 10 pounds to be exact which in my case is a very good thing, but he is very concerned about my continued extreme intestinal pain episodes that knock me off my feet and make me feel like i'm going to pass out/collapse.
So the gi doctor is wanting to schedule another smart pill camera procedure to see how bad the disease has gotten since i went off of all crohn's medication 4 months ago (because the meds were not working) and see what medication to possibly try next. But until medicare approves the test it's back to playing the waiting game again until i can go have this test done.
However, while waiting for the smart pill camera procedure I am having weekly therapy counseling sessions with my new PTSD certified counselor and in just 2 sessions I'm already making head way in healing from the over 20 years of abuse that i have never productively dealt with and healed from.
Well, that is about all the updates i have for now. It's going to be a beautiful fall weekend and i'm hoping to be able to enjoy everyday of it.
