Looks like I am gonna have to go back on INSULIN

Sugar is still out of control. 416 tonight (70-120 is my target range)

Taking 7.5 MG of Metaglip 2 x a day.

Maximum dosage is 10 mg 2x a day.

Will go up to 10 mg tomorrow.

But I am gonna call my endocrinologist and make an appt.

I believe it would be best to go back on the insulin pump.

Rosie had a fairly good day. She actually got out of bed and did some chores today. 1st time in MONTHS!

I am feeling poorly today. Only slept 4 hours. Got up at 9 am. Tuckered out.

Still have chest tightness.

Haven’t chatted with John in 2 days. Worried about him and Janette. Sending prayers.

PRAYING FOR EVERYONE.

Love,

Angela Bell

Rose Lee and Angela Bell

Rosie had a good day.She spoke to her nurse and all her labs have improved since February. She is scheduled for her 1st colonoscopy: Monday the 26th. She is high risk so the prep is not as bad as most. Miralax 2-3 times Friday/Saturday with a  Low Residue Diet. On Sunday, clear fluids and Miralax 4 times. She doesn’t need an enema nor has to drink the gallon of that nasty stuff! I have had 5 colonoscopies. Diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Diabetic Gastroparesis. :-(

Took Dad to Capt D’s for his 71st birthday. Coconut Shrimp.

Went grocery shopping. Rosie has put me on a diet. Got all healthy foods today. Fruits, Veggies, Protein!

My sugar was down to 248 this am. I increased my metaglip from 2.5 to 5 mg twice a day yesterday. Went to 7.5 mg tonight. Will continue on that to see how my sugar levels reacts. Really not wanting to go back on insulin nor being attached to an insulin pump all the time but I may HAVE to.

Got home from shopping… just had sat down when I heard a loud noise. Seems Tater and Jazzi (our cats) had knocked down Dad’s 32″ Flatscreen TV in his bedroom…  it comes on but the screen has lines all over it!!! It is only 9 months old and….. Looks like he will be buying a new one. BOO! Was hoping Dad would be buying him an Ipad for me to borrow…. looks like that may not happen now. AARDVARK!

I am feeling better today than I have in months. Grateful for that. Must have been high sugar levels dragging me down.

Just wish my fibro aches and pains would subside. Still feels like I have a ton of elephants pushing down on my shoulders. Even been having chest tightness lately. Still having balance issues. My hip has given out on me a few times recently.

My boys Smoki and Snickers are adoring the warm weather. Love going bye-bye with us. They are such a hoot. RIDING THE WIND. I had 4 of my boys in bed when I fell asleep last night.. Tater, Jazzi, Smoki, and Snickers…. all in a twin (single) bed.

Hope to dye my hair tomorrow…. Rosie’s too.

Dogs need bathed. They smell like DOG!

Just wish I had a man to take care of me. SO JEALOUS OF OTHERS WHO DO.

I am such a great person. Full of compassion with tons of love that I willing to share.

I KNOW MY HELPMATE IS OUT THERE SOMEWHERE! Just praying that he and I discover one another. TRYING to wait… just so hard at times. Just need someone to cuddle with, SHAG with, confide in, share life and all its experiences with. SCARED that I am always gonna be an old maid. I know that my predestined mate is out there. Perhaps even will read this blog entry…

I am asking The Lord Jesus Christ to guide my soulmate and I together. Let him know that I am the woman your created for him. I know all things are possible with God. I surrender my future love and myself to God. I know he and I will do great things together. I just know it! Bring me into his life and I into his.

God I admit and confess ALL my sins.  FORGIVE ME. I know I should be doing more for You. Guide me to what I need to do for you. USE ME!

Sending prayers to whoever reads this.

GOD BLESS YOU ALL,

Angela Bell Goo\ode

Me and Diabetes, Rosie Update

First about Rosie. Today she saw Dr Wilhoite a gastro-enterologist. She is scheduled to have a colonoscopy on Monday: March 26th. She had a very bad morning and afternoon. Thank God she is now feeling better. Doc ONLY wants Rose to do a 3 day miralax prep. She is going to ask for respite hours from her Home Health Aide’s to help with the colonoscopy prep. That will relieve some of my stress.

Prior to Gastric Bypass (9-14-2009) I was on an insulin pump to control my diabetes. After 18 months I was able to go off insulin and on to metaglip PILL for my sugar. It WAS working well. I USED to test my glucose levels 5-6 times a day. Which I did religiously for 20 years. Since Rosie had Gastric Bypass (7-23-2011) I have been neglectful and rarely tested my glucose levels. I know I need spanking!!! Rose has been so sick and that makes me so stressed. I checked today and my glucose was 405 when 70-120 is the goals set my my doctor. I took 2 metaglips pills and it dropped to 287.  Most people are extremely ill when it passes 250 or so. I just have been more fatigued than normal. Going to  go back on insulin tomorrow. Gonna call my Endocrinologist and perhaps even go back on the insulin pump. Stress has always raised my sugar levels. As does infections.

I had a dream about MR HANDSOME the other night. We had a huge wedding with family and friends. It was gorgeous. After the wedding, Mr Handsome stood up and started laughing and saying it was all a prank and that he would never marry a FAT ASS like me and proceeded to kick me out of his house. I woke up…

Seems like I am not worthy of being loved. Just need a reassuring hug tonight.

I pray to have more faith, patience, compassion, self-esteem and confidence. I am lacking in those categories.

I pray that John’s wife Jan starts feeling better. Missed seeing him tonight. Hope to chat tomorrow via webcam tomorrow.

Today is my Daddy’s 72nd Birthday.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY!

Gonna take him out for lunch @ Capt D’s. Will take him out on Thursday to Red Lobster in Pigeon Forge. Both are faves of his.

Love and Prayers,

Angela Bell Goode

Outcome of Rosies Doctor Appointment

Rosie went to her Gastric Bypass Dr Boyce. He is sending her to a Gastroenterologist Dr Wilhoite on Monday at 8:15 AM. Meaning I have to get up at 5 am to get Rosie ready and then off to Knoxville we will go.

Boyce ordered all sorts of lab tests. They needed only 3 vials… had to stick Rosie 7 times to get enough. Took 90 minutes! OUCH!

Rosie’s IPAD 3 HD arrived in Knoxville about 45 min ago. Will be delivered tomorrow. Rosie is so excited and so am I.

The past few weeks have been really rough on Rosie and I. Just wore out from stress. When Rosie improves I hope there is someway she, Dad, and I can take a vacay. WE DESERVE IT!

Praying for strength, energy, faith, compassion, hope, confidence, and patience.

Had a nice chat with my Best Friend John (friends only, he lives in Scotland, he and I have never met.)

Sending love and prayers to everyone.

God Speed,

Angela

Today and Tomorrow

Rosie and I went grocery shopping at Wal-mart. Only got necessities since Rosie started having tummy cramps and was feeling bad. She is still having diarrhea and nausea off and on… currently Off.

We both get allergy shots tomorrow and then we head to Knoxville for Rose to see her gastric bypass doc. She needs a referral from him to see a Gastroenterologist.

I had a small melt-down today. Ranting. Screaming, Cursing. Just so stressful with Rosie.. once minute she is bubbly, happy, feeling good and then the next minute it all goes downhill. Hate seeing her cry in pain. She is so irritable.

Please God send the best doctors, tests, and medicine into her life to make her life more enjoyable. Heal my Baby sis Rose Lee. I surrender Rosie’s health to God.

I have to rise and shine at 9 am so I am off to bed.

Sending prayers to all my family as well as all my friends here in Tennessee and Texas.

Praying that my predestined helpmate is praying for me right this moment as I am praying for him… wherever and whoever he might  be.

Love,

Angela Bell

Update on my Beloved Sissy Rose Lee

Rosie woke up this morning with diarrhea and vomiting. Had severe cramping above and below her navel. Above cramps means she is gonna vomit. Below cramps equals diarrhea. She has taken a Zofran and is no longer cramping. But is sore to the touch.

We are going to Wally World around 5. Pray that she continues to feel OK… or even better than just OK.

I am so friggin stressed out. One min I am thrilled that she is happy, active, laughing, full of joy and then a minute later she is sick as a dog. Roller Coaster. Wearing me out.

She goes to see Dr Boyce tomorrow. She needs an endoscopy and a colonoscopy.

Asking everyone to say a pray for Rosie and I .

Thanks and

God bless.

Angela

Rose Lee is not doing well… PRAYERS NEEDED

Rosie and I have been up and down all night and morning. She is vomiting and has diarrhea. She and I are wore out. Pleas just take second and say a small prayer for her healing. Thanks!

Just hoping that she feels good enough in a few hours to go grocery shopping. We are out of everything. There is no way Dad can get all that we need.

Praying my sissy gets better.

Love,

Angela

Fibromyalgia

Having a severe fibro flare-up. Feels like there is a parade of elephants sitting on  my shoulders.

Painful, achy, burning down my shoulders, arms, and elbows.

Makes me feel so exhausted.

Rosie didn’t have much nausea today. Praise God… BUT the diarrhea has returned. Just wish she would get well and STAY well. I love my baby sissy,

Since Rosie was not feeling well we stayed home today.

Hope to go grocery shopping tomorrow.

Ipad 3 HD has went from China to Hong Kong to Alaska. Wondering where its next stop is? Love technology!

Praises be to God for the emotional stability I’ve  had for a few weeks now.

Praying for some physically stability.

Wish I didn’t have to deal and cope with diabetes, hypothyroidism, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, allergies, insomnia, neuropathy, irregular heart beat, marie-charcot-tooth syndrome, and irritable bowel syndrome… on a daily basis. Asking God to heal me from my afflictions so I am able to help others more than I am able to now. I want to be more confident, outgoing, and a better communicator.

Barely can keep my eyes open so I am off to bed.

Sending Love and Prayers to all my Family, my Friends and even my Foes.

My Sis Rosie is feeling better tonight. Praise The Lord. I pray it continues. She is such a different person when she is sick. She is so talkative now. LOVE IT!

Plans are to bleach her hair tomorrow… so it will take a light red shade of dye.

Going grocery shopping. Out of fruit!

I had a yummilicious 100% Frozen Pineapple Fruit Bar. Gonna get more of em tomorrow.

I am feeling queasy tonight.

I pray that I can sleep for 8 STRAIGHT hours instead of getting 2 hours of sleep, 1 hour being awake, and then repeat. I need REST! I need to RECOUP. I need REJUVENATION.

Feeling abnormally tired lately. I have chronic fatigue syndrome/fibromylagia and have no idea what it would feel like to have some energy.

Been having issues with concentration. Wandering thoughts. Can’t even put a sentence together without pausing. FIBRO FOG!

I ask God to heal my mind, soul, heart, and body.

Forgive me of all my sins.

Use me Dear Lord to make the world a better more serene place filled with Love.

I surrender to God. All of me. I ask that God’s will be done in my life. Whatever God wants for me. I accept. Asking for Wisdom, Guidance. Strength, Confidence, Faith, Hope and Charity.

God watch over my soulmate and lead us together. God timing is perfect. Help me and my soulmate to grow closer to you. Help us become better people individually so when he and I are brought together he and I can become one. I love My Daddy, Abba, Jesus, Lord!

Praying that everyone has Love, Peace, and God.

~Angela Bell Goode

PS. Give MR HANDSOME all that he deserves and guide him to his soulmate. If it’s me fantastic IF not give me someone who is perfect who will be able to stand next to him so that he can accomplished even more than he already has. BLESS HIM!

Today: Shopping, Dining, Rosie and God

Rosie and I went out shopping today.

Went to Rack Room Shoes. I got 2 pairs of bjorndal sandals.

Went to TJ Maxx but didn’t buy anything.

Went to Office Max. Rosie got a touch pen for her new Ipad.. will be here on the 16th. My laptop is touch screen so I am having a blast! Also purchased some gel INK Pens.

We ate at The Davy Crockett Restaurant, choose a meat Plus 2-3 sides… all under $9.99 Sides includes salads as well as Banana Pudding.

Rosie got the Open Faced Roast Beef Sandwich, Mashed Taters and Banana Pudding. She has not touched the nana pudding and has enough Roast beef for 2 more meals!

Dad got the sirloin, slaw, brown beans and Nana Pudding. He brought ALL of the sirloin home for our dogs!

I had the country fried steak. Ate about 1/3 of it and  brought the rest home for the Boys (Snickers and Smoki). Mashed Taters, Side Salad (Country French Dressing) and Nana Pudding.

Smoki and Snickers went out with us. Dad stayed in the Van with the boys as we shopped.

I am THRILLED that Rosie is feeling so much better. She is back to her boisterous funny self… Thank God. I missed her. Love seeing her enjoying food. Been a long 7.5 months (Gastric Bypass) since she actually wants to eat and is able to enjoy it. BLESSED.

Going to pack clothes this weekend. Heading to West Virginia Next Sunday. Hoping to meet all of my West Virginia family at the new Arby’s in Pineville around 3 pm Sunday the 18th.

Pineville does NOT even have a McDonald’s. Closest McDonald’s is 13.48 miles away!

Closest Wal-Mart is 24.67 miles

Pineville does have a Dairy Queen now.

Going to call my Aunt Mattie and Uncle Harold (Springfield, OHIO) and let them know we are heading to Pineville. Hope they can meet us there.

Going to bleach Rose Lee’s Hair and Dye it a brighter red for Spring.

Dyeing mine Jet Black. Also going to cut some Bangs / Fringe to hide the wrinkles on my forehead. Yes, I do have wrinkles!

ALLERGIES are killing me. Sneezing. Breaking out in rashes when I go outside. Itching all over. Ear Tickles. Inflammation on my forehead. Sinus/Allergies Sucks!

Getting OLDER Sucks even-more-so.

Realizing that I let 46 years pass away without LIVING it.

Pray that I overcome my shyness. I want to have a bubbly, sparkling, boisterous personalty… I wish I could talk to men without having a panic attack. Wish I was able to be flirty. I just don’t have the confidence I wish I had. Always worried about something.

I still have Social anxiety.. afraid I am saying the wrong things. That I am bothering people. etc.

I am able to talk to gay men without any problem. Or I talk to men who live thousands of miles away so I won’t have to deal with them in person.

I Pray that I can start communicating with Straight Single men who live in Tennessee. Afraid of getting my heart broken again.

I have NEVER even had a girlfriend to talk with. No friends in School… I had few friends @ School but they never came to my house and I never went to theirs.  Never called and spoke on the phone… etc

Rose Lee is my best friend and Sissy.

John is my best male friend. He lives 3,500 miles away from here. Friends Only.

I have some friends online. Just acquaintances. I would love to be able to have friends in my life. Someone to hang out with. Do things with, etc  Laugh with. Cry With.

John is the only one who sees me cry. I share everything, all my thoughts, worries, anxieties. He knows me very well.

I bet I went 20 some years where I CRIED every single night. Feeling so lonely. I still cry on occasion but not like I use to.

I would LOVE to have a man to call me…not sure if I am ready.. I am getting there.

I have personal ads at a slew of websites. Get mail on a daily basis. Just don’t know which one I should write back so I don’t reply to any of them.

Asking God to guide me to the men, that will enhance my quality of life. Someone who will bring out the BEST in me. Someone who is Compassionate, Patient, Family Oriented and someone wants to help the less fortunate and who also adores animals.

I know the man God designed me for is out there praying to meet me. Praying for my family. I pray for that man every day and I have for 30 years. I know God wants me to have a helpmate. A Lover. A Friend. Praying that he enters my life soon.

I surrender my will to God’s will for my life.

Please Pray that God will help me overcome all my insecurities.

I Pray for confidence, the words to help encourage and bless others.

Use my smile to show God’s love to the world.

God, Here I Am.. Use me anyway you see fit. I am willing.

God Help me Help others.

I know I have it in me to overcome anything and everything that is holding me back from my full potential.

Change my personality Dear Lord… Make me bubbly, friendly, well spoken, and  kinder.

Make me selfless.

Give me the words that people need to hear.

USE ME.

Please USE ME Lord.

I surrender.

Ready to change.

Change starts NOW!

I pray for everyone who read this .

I pray for everyone in the world to be nicer to one another.

Rosie’s Health and IPAD 3 HD

Rosie is still feeling awesome. Eating well. I am so pleased. PRAISE JESUS for Answered prayers.

I am feeling good emotionally and spiritually but physically I ache all over. Having Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia, Diabetes, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Insomnia, Low Thyroid, Neuropathy, and  Charcot-Marie Tooth Syndrome sucks.

Still having some episodes of depression, social anxieties, and panic attacks.

I did chat with a family friend, David, on Facebook Chat. He was the 1st I chatted with on Facebook… he is a pre-teen. He always makes me smile. He won KING at the Spring Dance! CONGRATS! Hope to see him on the trip to WV on March 18-20th. Last trip he spent the night with us at the cabin at Twin Falls Resort.

Also got to chat with my cousin Brandy. Even discussed her moving to Tennessee. Wants to start an animal rescue center. She works with the IRS and is gonna look for a job down here. She is like a sis to Rosie and I. She lived next to us in West Virginia. Love her.

Brandy and I both have the same emotional issues.

Not wanting to go out tomorrow…. needing rest BUT I need to go get my allergy shot.

Rosie ordered herself the new Ipad 3 HD. Will be here on March 16th. She is so excited. She deserves it since she went through 7.5 months of hell!

Thrilled she is feeling better.

Fatigued beyond words and heading to bed. Pray that I get some sleep.

Good Night and God Bless,

West Virginia Vacation

We are planning on going to Pineville this weekend.

IF my WV family has other plans it will change the date of our trip.

Waiting for a response from Susie, Shay, Sara, Rebecca, Brandy and Tammy. Don’t want to screw up their plans.

We will be staying at the largest handicapped accessible Cabin at Twin Falls.

Hoping to hear from them before the cabin gets rented out. Was available this morn.

Rosie is feeling great. She was even on her laptop when I woke up this morn. First time in months that she was online so early.

I am doing well. So peaceful. No longer so stressed about Rosie.

Gonna relax all afternoon.

Thanks for all your prayers,

God Bless You,

Angela Bell


March 6, 2012, at 5:57 pm

Praise The Lord….

Rosie is feeling so much better. Not sure why…she took a zofran last night in the ER. Went to get a script filled for Zofran at WalMart and It is out of stock and won’t be available till tomorrow. $5 a pill! FIVE BUCKS!

Rosie actually asked to go out shopping and dining. I was so surprised when she wanted to pick out a nail polish. She hasn’t been interested in makeup or nails for a LONG Time. Just small lil steps I appreciate.

She is still having MILD Nausea and soreness in her lower abdomen. Her appetite has returned and she was able to actually eat a good size portion of fish.

I was THRILLED to see her eat and savor each bite.

Just pray that she continues to improve. Been a rough 7.5 months since Gastric Bypass. She goes to Dr Boyce next Thursday.

She is so talkative. Back to the old Rose Lee that I adore. Her voice has even been weak the past month. Her voice was much stronger today. Not sure Zofran or perhaps the dye contrast she drank and they injected has helped her the most. But something obviously has helped. Maybe it helped when the doc pressed on her stomach and she shrieked out in pain. Maybe burst an MRSA abscess or something. Hmmm….

My right hip has given out on me twice this week, so far! Last night it went out and I fell backwards upon the van door. OUCH! Today when I stood up from the table at Shoney’s it went out again. UGH. It is painful. I will TRY and get to my rheumatologist in a few weeks. I have had balance issues ever since I had the first Chronic Kidney Failure Episode. Had 3 of them. Only needed dialysis that 1st time.

Sending prayers to The Hendrix Family. Hope Zachary has a speedy recovery. GOD BLESS THEM ALL!

Thanks to everyone who has prayed for Rosie. Hope we are on the track for a full recovery.

Rosie says she is planning her next meal… it has been a long time since she did this. Now has ZERO Nausea. PTL!

Off to relax and watch TV with Rosie.

Love and Prayers,

Angela


March 6, 2012, at 10:42 am

Rosie Update….

Rosie is feeling pretty good today. Zofran must have helped. She just took a phenergan. Will take a Zofran in a few hours. Still having pain and soreness in her lower abdomen.

Waiting for Dr Williams/Dr Boyce to call us back. Hope they can see her today.

I had Gastric Bypass Dumping Syndrome all night. Should not have ate that Hot Fudge Cake. Still feeling YUCKY.

Thanks for all your prayers. Praying for all of you.

God Bless,

Another Emergency Room Adventure… 7th one in 8 months

Rosie has had Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting and pain since 7-24-11 Day of Biliopancreatic Diversion With Duodenal Switch aka Gastric Bypass Surgery http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biliopancreatic_diversion#Biliopancreatic_diversion

Today she went for her 7th ER Visit in 8 months. Twice  in the last 2 weeks. All her vitals and blood work was normal today. She had a ct scan today and 2 weeks ago. It shows some air abscesses. In August she had MRSA Abscess all over her internal stomach. Was hospitalized for 21 days. I STILL BELIEVE SHE HAS MRSA ABSCESSES!

The ER Doc wants her to see her Gastric Bypass surgeon Dr Boyce in a few days. Dr Boyce is out-of-town so she will be seeing his partner Dr Williams. Hopefully morrow. Dr Williams treated Rosie in the hospital when she has MRSA. He is a really nice man and so is Dr Boyce. Both are very handsome. My latest crushes!

They will prolly send her to a gastroenterologist for an Endoscopy and Colonoscopy. She has never had a colonoscopy. I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome and had 5 colonoscopy’s and 6 endoscopy’s. WORST thing is the prep. Aka Cleaning out the bowels. Prep drinks are so yucky! UGH! I feel sorry for Rosie having to drink that $hit. Yucky! It is better ice-cold and with some crystal light mixed in…. but still so nasty!

So glad that I had access to MSN Live Messenger at University of Tennessee ER. Got to webcam chat with my John. Chat is blocked at Parkwest Hospital.  He was still all dolled up in his business attire. Shirt and Ties make me weak in the knee’s. Love a man in a suit. Adore men who can wear a suit for work and then jeans for fun and play.

It made Rosie so Happy to hear that Rick Hendrix was praying for her. Made her smile. Thanks Mr Hendrix!

I am wanting another dog and cat! A rescued one.Hopefully one day I can live on a farm with tons of pets. I adore cats, Dogs, Donkeys and Billy Goats. I would rescue every animal I could. Love Animals. Easier to talk to than people. LOL! I have conversations with all my pets, 2 dogs and 4 cats. They truly understand all the words I put into their mouths. LMFAO!

I hadn’t ate much today so on the way home we stopped at Cardins Drive-In. I was so stressed that I ordered a Hot Fudge Cake. Man it was awesome but now I am so ill. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastric_dumping_syndrome UGH! NAUGHTY GIRL!

Rosie’s blood they drew tonight was almost black and thick. PT and INR was in the therapeutic range. She takes blood thinner to prevent blood clots. She has had so many blood clots that I have lost count. Even had one in her bladder. She inherited this from her Granny Goode. She has a GreenField Filter http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenfield_filter to catch blood clots and prevent them going to her lungs or heart.

Rosie has so many health issues.

Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juvenile_Rheumatoid_Arthritis

Morphea aka Linear Scleroderma http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_scleroderma

Venous insufficiency in her feet http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_venous_insufficiency

Hemolytic Anemia that went into remission when they removed her spleen http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemolytic_anemia

Scoliosis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scoliosis

Joints frozen in her arms, hands, elbows, legs, feet, knees and hips.

She has not been able to walk since she was 16. She turns 45 this year. When Rosie was 12 a doctor told Mom that Rosie would not make it to the age of 21. So glad that doc was WRONG!

Rosie broke her tailbone 18 months ago. Still have aches and pains.

Chronic Bronchitis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_bronchitis

Severe Allergies

All of this and Rose is still one of the happiest people I ever met.

God knew I could not handle all that Rosie has went through and is going through. Just glad that God chose me to be her care taker. I adore her with all my heart. Not only my sissy but also my best friend.

Blessed to have Rosie in my life.

Still praying to finally meet the man God created me for. I know my Baby Love is out there praying for me at this minute. Can’t wait to meet him. Let him know I am praying for him.

Thanks for all your prayers. Just pray that the docs can find out what is causing Rose Lee’s tummy pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and lack of appetite. So stressful to know she feels so bad. I Pray that Dr Williams sends her to the best gastroenterologist in Knoxville… one that will take the time to listen and will run tests and scopy’s to find out what is causing all of this.

Snickers, Smoki. Panther, Jazzi, Punkin and Tater were glad to see us back home.

Smoki senses Rose is sick and keeps checking on her. Nurse Doggy!

Rosie was feeling so much better when we got home. That Zofran stuff is great. Just hoping that her insurance will cover it.. But I doubt it. Praise God that they have a generic form. Name Brand Zofran is $750.00 a month for a once a day pill. Generic is around $50….. $50 bucks don’t sound like a lot… but it is a tremendous amount for someone on Social Security Disability like Rosie is.

Saw this online…

I asked for strength and God gave me difficulties to make me strong… I asked for wisdom and God gave me problems to solve… I asked for prosperity and God gave me brain and brawn to work… I asked for courage and God gave me danger to overcome… I asked for love and God gave me troubled people to help… I asked for favors and God gave me opportunities… I received nothing I wanted… I received everything I needed… TRUST IN GOD

Praying that Rosie sleeps well and gets some rest. Same for me!

Thanks to everyone who has prayed for us. Much appreciated and prayers returned. May God Bless and Prosper all of you.

Good Night and God Bless,

GOOD GRIEF!

Doc came back in… A new radiologist looked at Rosie’s scan, Doc pressed on her stomach and pain was in that same spot and radiated towards Rosie lower right side…. She may have MRSA Abscesses….WAITING

Maybe they have found the problem.

DAMN I am so freaking frustrated!

ER Docs can’t find anything WRONG with Rosie.

Heading home.

Calling Dr Boyce for an appt with a gastro-gastroenterologist.

UGH! UGH UGH!

Rosie ER Update 2

They have done labs… no results yet.

She has drunk some contrast dye for her ctscan, Should be here any minute to take her to it. Gonna inject dye into her veins. Pray they are  successful. Will give e much clearer CT SCAN if hey can. They tried a few months ago and failed getting the injection into her. She is a difficult stick. Her RN got the  IV into Rose on the 2nd try. I have seen them stick her 13 times and NEVER Got an IV started. Even when she had her last hernia repair they had to put in a central picc line.

She has an IV.

Getting all her records from ParkWest.

Gave her a shot of zofran (anti-nausea med)

She has the chills.

Still hurting in her lower right abdomen.

Gonna be a long night.

Thanks for all your prayers.

GOD BLESS,

Rosie’s Health…

Rosie and I went out to grocery shop after taking the boys for a drive through the countryside. Rosie got ill in the store and we had to leave. Diarrhea and vomiting. Believe me I have done nothing but clean up both ever since she had gastric bypass surgery on 7-24-11. She also had major cramping below her navel region. Wanted to take her to the ER but she wanted to come home and let me clean her up first. Well, we did that. She had no fever and decided to wait till tomorrow. We have been to the ParkWest Hospital ER 5 times since 7-24-11 with her having nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Took 3 ER visits to get them to admit her. Finally got an ER doc that would listen!!!!!

She had MAJOR case of MRSA abscesses in her stomach and spent 21 days in the hospital. The Last visit was 10 days ago…..her vitals, ct scan and labs were normal. They couldn’t do complete labs since she is a difficult stick. They SHOULD HAVE tried more times than they did. UGH!

She’s had 2 hernia repairs since GBS “Gastric Bypass Surgery” One in August 2011 and another in Feb 2012. After the most recent repair she got SEVERE DIARRHEA! I should know since I am her caregiver and it has been BAD! YUCK. She has had NO APPETITE since GBS. Was on TPN Feedings for 2 months. She has not ate a handful of food in weeks. She is weak. Has significant bruising on her body. I am sure she is dehydrated and malnourished.

We are heading to University of Tennessee Emergency Room tomorrow and NOT Parkwest Hospital.

Rosie NOW has a fever of 100.6. Giving her a Tylenol.

I just pray that we get a good ER doc who will investigate all her issues she is having.

I am taking enough clothes and toiletries for a few weeks. Sure they will admit her. Dad is gonna MAKE THEM! She is obviously sick. She has lost over 200 lbs in 13 months! Just so scared and worried about her. Stressed out to the max. All she has ate today is 1 1/2 deli thin ham slices and 1/2 slice of cheese.  She has only drank about 20 OZ of fluids. Just not able to drink or eat much.

PRAISE GOD for all my friends in Scotland, Tennessee, and Texas. Don’t know what I would do without you. You all are a blessing. So glad I took a chance and decided to befriend all of you. You are GOOD PEOPLE!

My heart is beating too fast. Lump in my throat. UGH. Trying to relax.

Rosie took her  phenergan and will soon be asleep. As soon as I know she is sound asleep I am going go to bed. EXHAUSTED.

Please continue to pray.

Thanks and God Bless You,

Love you all,

~Angela Bell
