Hi Everyone,

I just returned from NY..came back a little early...needed a break...My sister has taken over. Mom's 3 month check up is Thursday. They are taking her blood and CT scan. Then she meets next week with her doctor to go over the results. Mom is terrified. I can't blame her. She looks great. She is up and around and walking and has put on some weight. She says the only digestive issues she is experiencing is bad gas....is that normal? ...She said she thought that it was since it has been that way since her surgery. She denies diarreah or constipation....but I do notice her burping a lot (something she did when first diagnosed)...I am hoping these are not symptoms of recurrance....do any of you have ongoing gas? I have to admit I am scared as well...it's been a great 3 months...no doctors..no chemo....no worries...If any of you would be willing to pray for her, I would be greatly appreciative....With God, all things are possible. In my opinion, you all are God's angels on Earth!! Thanks.....

    Best of luck to your Mom. I have had tons of digestive issues since my inital surgery. Unsure if it was cancer related or not.

    GOOD LUCK!!!

    Lots of Prayers
    Dear Lisa, we have your mom in prayer as well as you and the rest fo the family. I wouldn't worry to much about the gas, unless it becomes very uncomfortable. Have your sister make sure they mention to the docs, could be a side affect of meds or too much fiber. Prayers ♥ Hugs Bonnie

    Chemo is hard on body
    chemo is hard on the body and it upsets digestive system this may be causing the gas.

    I am praying

    Dear Lisa,
    Praying your mom's check goes well, it would be Thursday there, so by now you may know results. So wonderful that your mom has had this chemo/cancer break. I know she needed it.

    I have a lot of gas issues, and take pro-biotics which do help. My doc always tells me that I need to be glad the gas is coming out, that means no blockage! Not always fun for those who have to put up with it though.

    Keep us posted,
    Kathleen
