Ok so when I woke up on Thursday I didn't feel good. My pain got worse and what was coming out of me wasn't pretty. I was at work a few hours and decided to leave I went to see my family doctor looking for pain meds until next Wednesday for my sigmoid. My doctor said no I'm going to put you in the hospital and I'll have a gastro doc take a look at you. So I did that today (had the full work up) and I have Ulcerative Colitis so I have some medicine for my mouth and for my butt. So I'm going to take my medicine and in a few weeks I'll go back to my onc and I know that my CEA will be lowered! I BELIEVE (just like Kay)!

    OK, so now you should REALLY be convinced about not having the sig....actually, the UC could have flared by the prep....my flex sig only required an enima (I hate it so much I can't even spell it...sigh)
    BIG, WARM, FUZZY hugs to you!

    I don't want to be too excited about you having UC but I agree that your CEA will be down once you get that under control. Interesting stuff we learn together each day!!!!!!!

    Hugs Sue,
