Thuney: Urologist

HI Thuney, was just thinking about you and wondering if you ever got in to see the urologist?

Yes, I am back up--too much pain and cn't sleep tonight.  Was nauseous for awhile, but gingerale helped with that.  No I have diarhea (diarrhea).  Can't win!

I go to the urologist on July 5, but I already dropped off my CT film and gave a urine sample.  So I am assuming from what his nurse told me, they would have called me back with a prescription if they still found blood in my urine--so I am assuming (hopefully, correctly) that it has finally cleared up.

Hi, this is just a thought, but have you by any chance been out of the country recently where you could have picked up an intestinal parasite? My son got giardia, when he was about 12 years old, after a trip to Canada. He was so sick for weeks with nausea and diarrhea and stomach pain. Finally he was diagnosed with giardia and put on flagyl and within days was better.

Your symptoms do not sound like colon cancer to me at all. If anything, I would think IBS or what I described above.

Hope you are better today.

Thanks, Linda--if he doesn't find anything on Monday (And I hope he doesn't)then I will talk to him about it!

[Linda J]

Well, you can get giardia in this country too as well as other intestinal parasites. I would consider asking your GI doc about it, if everything else is ruled out. I'm really sorry you had such a bad nite, but glad you are a little better today.

No--no trips out of the country.  I finally fell asleep sometime after 2:43 this morning, but I do feel better today.  Am trying to clean this house and iron (basically, get caught up) before Monday.

Thanks!

All of you suffering with IBS should quit eating sugar , drinking soft drinks-any kind, no-no to white flour and it's products, quit coffee drinking, black tea only green tea. No processed foods and foods with preservatives and colour and all kinds of chemicals. No canned foods-they have tonnes of chemicals to preserve this thing inside they call food.
Coffee is acidifying your body so you should do coffee enemas..yes coffee enemas.
My IBS was cured by eating RAW vegetables-CABBAGE raw or sourcrout , steamed vegetables, fruits especially bananas-these are great for the intestines,doing coffee enemas twice daily to detoxify your liver,NO MEAT of any kind - you can get proteine from nuts (Except peanuts) and above all should have the will to get better and to sacrifice junk food for your well being.
Educate yourself.Don't trust your doctors like they were gods because they are not. You know your body BEST.
