    Inflamed Pancreas

    Had my ultrasound scan this morning. still have to have a ct scan. I told her my fears and she took ages to do the scan. Told her i'd been very anxious thinking it was pancreatic cancer and she said 'we wouldn't be allowed to tell you if we saw cancer'. So that got me concerned right away...

    Hi Tricia I wish my surgery was as supportive. I am waiting for a scan for possible gallstones and have been given oral morphine as i was in a lot of pain recently below my ribs and spreading to the right and into my back. She thought it is possible gallstones. That was a while ago and still...

    Thank you for that response. I didn't mean to sound ungrateful but i have to be honest in that my daughter turned to religion a few months before she died and it obviously didn't help her or change anything and I simply would be very angry with any god if he existed. So for me I would say that i...

    Thank you. I've never thought to do that. I have noticed on my first day of not eating junk food. Usually 2 hours after eating my sugars will go from around 10 up to 16. Today after the chicken and kale it has gone from 9.9 to 9.8. First time in years my sugar has been lower after eating. Thank...
