I have not been on site for awhile because I was in and out of the hospital. For months I had stomach pain and lost about 40lbs,because I could not eat without getting sick and then on top of that I had the stomach flu. In between being sick I lost my close friend to this disease that put me in a funk mold. I after several months in pain I found out I have gallstone and had to get my gallbladder remove that was in first week of Jan. I thought wow all this time I was sick they stay forcus on my bone mets not my stomach. This my life I start to feel little bit better and now I do not have feeling in my right hip or leg and now I am off again trying to figure out what wrong now. I tell sh## happen and that should be title of my book. (LOL). I have to laugh to keep from crying. All have said that I am thankful I'm still here to deal with this crazy stuff.

Big Hugs
Barb

    Barb,
    Glad you posted and happy they got the gallstone problem corrected. Now if they can determine what is causing the other stuff, it will be great. Prayers that things get better and thanks for updating us. We are extra worrying about our little family and need to know how everyone is doing.

    Glad to hear from you
    Barb,

    Glad you are doing okay. Depression is a side effect of cancer, please get help for that. Sorry to hear about your friend, that must be very hard to handle. Have you thought of seeing a therapist? I couldn't live without mine. Gallbladder huh? My friend went through last year, she was in a lot of pain before they figured it out. Glad you are on the road to recovery. Take care and it's good to hear from you.

    Good to hear from you Barb
    I am sorry about all the challenges you have been facing. I can't believe they didn't look at
    your stomach before... sheesh. When something is not quiet right with our bodies, it really
    effects our mood and it's hard to separate the two, isn't it? And I am sure the loss of a close
    friend didn't help matters.

    My condolences, it is so painful to loose a loved one.

    But I am glad to see you post again and laugh (:

    Hugs,
