I had the Mini Arc bladder sling surgery the 18th of Dec. and it worked great for 2 1/2 weeks then I got a pain in my bladder and it started leaking :( My dr. wants me to wait 3 months and see how it's doing then. I may have to try the surgery again.
On the 11th of this month I had to have a port put in my chest so I can get my IVIG infusions through it because the infusions have fried the veins in my hands and arms. During the surgery for the port I inhaled stomach acid into my lungs.......which burned the heck out of my lungs. So now I'm on steriods to help get them healed....
Last week I saw an Endocrinologist and he did an ultrasound on my Thyroid and found 4 nodules! He's testing me on the 30th for diabetes and to see if I need further testing on the nodules.......UGH!!!!!
I'm totally wiped out from all these problems.....besides all my old ones! I'm not dealing well with all the pain and dealing with dr.s and appts.....the works!
I hope everyone is doing ok, I've missed chatting with y'all but I just haven't been up to being online much. Take care and best wishes to everyone!

Wow, I'm so sorry you have so many things going on at once! I had been wondering where you were and if you were doing ok. Come back when you feel up to it but keep us informed as to how you're doing.

Take care of yourself!

Hi All, Thank you for the kind words and prayers.
I had an Xray of my lungs today.....no pneumonia.....but it still hurts so I go for a cat scan on Thurs. and starting Prednisone tonight for a week to see if that helps....a week of Zpack steriods didn't help at all. :( so we'll see.........
