Thank You Skinner & DUer's !!!
Advertisements [?]

I want to thank Skinner and all the great DUer's who donated money to help me get into a doctor for my stomache problems.

I got into a doctor wednesday, she thinks I have something called (GERD) Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease. I also have high blood pressure (170 over 100) which is pretty high. They put me on some drug called Protonix, 25 mg. And two different kinds of high blood pressure drugs. Something called Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg, and Toprol 50 mg.

They also took blood and urine so they can run some lab tests. They also think I might have an ulcer or diabetes, they wont know until the lab tests are done. I will find out the results of that next wednesday.

I am supposed to take the Protonix for a week and go back for a 2nd office visit. I still feel like shit, I just hope this crap works.

Hopefully by then I will be feeling better and I can get back to a somewhat normal life. The doctor thinks I can recover pretty well from the drug treatments, I sure hope so.

Stewert
