Best of luck Duckie. I'm not sure what a PCM is but I hope they help you out, sounds like you've just been running around in circles. Keep strong in your quit, you've done so well and come a long way.

Another tear fest began yesterday. Damn gi doc is dragging her feet too. I am tired of jumping thru hoops so now the real fight begins. I am going to my PCM and I am going to tell her everything that has happened to me. Keep your fingers crossed she says enough is enough and puts in the referral for the manometer. Which reminds me: Why is it if a family pet suddenly become ill or needs an operation, they schedule it but if a human needs urgent medical attention, we have to jump thru hoops like a circus animal? *scratches head* I do not understand it. What is wrong w/ the above picture??

Hi Lynne. I called yesterday to confirm the pH probe and the manometer w/ her assistant. The assistant rudely says they are NOT going to do the manometer. I need that test done before my surgeon will do the surgery. I changed GI docs b/c of the same dragging of the feet. If I change GI docs again, then I have to start all over. It has been 5 mons since I got sick w/ this sliding hiatal. She doesnt have to live in pain. I do. I am tired of crying b/c of the pain. I am tired of throwing up acid b/c of the GERD. I have lost 45 pounds in 3 mons and I am truely sick and it is b/c of the hernia. *sigh* 2 hours and my PCM office opens.

Hi Danielle. I have curled up on the sofa and have eaten 3 tootsie roll pops, and drank my hot tea. So I guess I am hanging in there. Minty tea is soothing at the moment. =) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 9/21/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 49 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 495 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $98 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 4 [B]Hrs:[/B] 8 [B]Mins:[/B] 51 [B]Seconds:[/B] 45

Hi Kat! It's not so much as missing the smokes but more so than gi docs dragging their feet while I stay in pain over the sliding hiatal. I am not sure why this is happening to me. I just know I am emotionally spent. 5 mons of being in pain is too much for anyone to endure. =( [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 9/21/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 49 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 495 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $98 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 4 [B]Hrs:[/B] 8 [B]Mins:[/B] 51 [B]Seconds:[/B] 55
