Got my results back - Menopause Message Board

kc1216 · 06-22-2004, 04:14 PM

Hi Ladies,

They found nothing wrong. Oh well, off for the endoscopy on Wednesday. When my stomach, gerd symptoms act up it's like a constant burning in my stomach, not to mention the painful cramps I get which zelnorm took care of - now just the burning, burping and anxiety.

I'm sick of things today - I think that is a part of my problem, our governor resigned, that poor korean guy got beheaded, everything on the news is bad. Went on some message boards at abc to read some posts - talk about bleeding liberals - I damn near told them all where to go. They HATE me in there - feels good - is that sick or what?

That is great that nothing is wrong. Now you will accept that the IBS and the acid, etc. are perimenopause and also anxiety. I'm glad there is nothing wrong, keep taking the aciphex.

Well hopefully the endoscopy will rule out everything. I was reading about h-pylori - that can cause ulcers and such - it's some kind of germ that gets into your system and they say that 50% of people who suffer from ulcers/gerd and such have this bacteria - can be treated with antibiotics - so I'm going to rule that out (hopefully) and once I do, I will be looking for a therapist to get me through this nasty journey of peri!

ps- how was your day Andrea - bladder ok?

Peeing like a race horse! Period around the corner. I can feel a little of the IBS and bladder wanting to flame up cause I'm close to another hormone change. Thursday, I have to take the urine test again, so will let you know. But now I have a larger kidney stone (it grew) and pockets in my sigmoid colon, great! And they don't want to take out the kidney stone, great! Also, they want to go up my bladder, haven't scheduled that yet and would like to skip it.

Can they blast the stone? I don't understand why they want to let it sit there! That is probably what is leaving you w/ blood in your urine and causing you bladder pain! My bladder pain was ruled out so I guess I'll take my xanax.

Get the bladder (cystocopy?) done - They went up mine and saw it was irritated - that was it. Try to rule out everything.
