Out of the loop!

Well It's been quite a wile since I've checked LJ and even longer since I've posted. So for any one that happens to care here's an update, going back a while for those that I never get to talk to.

I trust you... ashenphoenix September 20 2007, 06:08:17 UTC
I've not had abdominal surgery, but using sliced muscles in that way immediately afterwards does NOT sound like fun! I'm rather surprised that the second doc agreed with the first - I thought they usually tried sonics on the stones before removing the gallbladder...especially in a pup like you. Or maybe they thought since you *are* having problems young, you'd *always* have them, so they went ahead and pulled it. I dunno - but I'm always wanting TMI on people's health stuff :p And it's just not fair that you can't have your own parts to take home anymore - damn biohazard legislation!

I hope you do better tomorrow, and that you're back to normal health soon!

For Gallstones they don't do sonic treatment. They kinda can but it dosen't work the same way that it does on kidney stones. They do have this stuff that you can drink that will break them up so you can painfully pass them. The down side is that you'll need to keep drinking it 4 times a day for the rest of your life or they will come back. So sayeth the surgeon. With gallstones once you get them you tend to keep getting them.

Odd clip from Wikipedia about gallstones "Gallstones are, oddly, a valuable by-product of meat processing, fetching up to US$32 per gram in their use as a purported aphrodisiac in the herbal medicine of some cultures. The finest gallstones tend to be sourced from old dairy cows. Much as in the manner of diamond mines, slaughterhouses carefully scrutinise offal department workers for gallstone theft."

Oh my. Tons has been going on. I hope you feel better soon!

I've missed you. I'm now at San Jose State (living here in the dorms). I'm a Theatre Arts major. *Eeeee! Joy!!* (switched major after three weeks of Hell....er...business classes.)

Get well soon. *hugs*

It'll take more than gallstones to get rid of me. :) I'm going to try to make it to faire. I'll be there last weekend, and if I can get gate listed I'm going to try to be there more. *hugs*

so happy all has turned out alright in the end, even if you had more than your share of morons along the way.

Yeah, people can be stupid. The hard part is not letting it get to me. After all I needed to trust these people enough to slice me open.
