horst Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 I finally got some results yeterday on whats been wrong with me for thre last 3 months.I went in and first they gave me the results of the liver Function Test they did monday.It was high, which means my livers irritated and not working properly.On the bright side it wasnt off the charts high, just a little elevated. they asked me about drinking, drugs, eating aspirin, and other things but I dont do any of the things they were looking for so he decided to do another blood test to see if I got a weak strain of hepatitus or something going on Then they went ahead and done the scope on my stomach.The camera wasnt working right or Id have pics to post Anyway, theres some bad looking rough spots in my stomach, not cancerous and thier not quite ulcers yet but they shouldnt be there anyway.So he took a culture from my stomach to check for the H-Pylori {spelling??} infection. Apparently the tests supposed to take awhile to finish because they werent gonna have any reults till today.But I was still in recovery about 15 minutes after the scope when the test strip went red Apparently turning that quickly meant i had a pretty bad infection going on because the anestethia guy started hollering at the nurse to get the doctor before he left, and the doctor started calling in prescriptions and they called the lab in to draw some more blood and the whle time I was lying there still half stoned from the anestethia thinking this was all the funniest thing Id ever seen till it dawned on me it was me they were talking about Apparently the infections filtering through my liver causing it to act up and thats where my pains coming from, so odds are the hepatitus tests are a waste of time anyway. Anyway, I leave the hospital about 1/2 hr later, and goto get my prescription.I get up there and they gve me a Prevacid pack, one of the antibiotics is amoxicillian.Wel, I just spent the whole morning telling people that I was allergic to penacillian, not just a little, i swell up and quit breathing if i take it.So I go back in and ask my pharmacist if amoxicillian will kill me and he says yes it will Another call to the hospital and some more people freaking out and they send me home with a 2 week dosage.It might take as long as 4 weeks to feel any better though And theres still a possibility theres more then that going on and some more tests may be needed But for now, we got a good starting point anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
