back from my appointment.....nothing to worry about....       05/10/07 01:17 PM Edit Reply Quote Nugget Reged: 02/10/03 Posts: 2167 I'm back from my appointment....all went well....I didn't get to see my gastroenterologist himself...saw his assistant, but she is real nice, too. She suggested increasing fiber. And since it has been 11 years since my colonoscopy, she suggested getting that done again, too because colon cancer runs in my family. The last scope I had showed diverticulosis, and she thinks it might be acting up and the increased fiber will help it. I asked her about Acacia but she wasn't familiar with it. She is more familiar with Metimucil, but she said I could give the Acacia a try. I ordered some last night. I told her I don't want to do the colonoscopy right now because we have a 2 week vacation coming up in July and I'm 8 months since my hysterectomy and I don't want that extra expense right now. She said that was fine...to schedule in the Fall. As for the anxiety...she said to keep doing what I'm doing with the HRT to get the hormones balanced and keep exercising and eating right. She also gave me a prescription for Lomotil.... thanks for all your support! I always get worried for nothing.... Edited by Nugget (05/10/07 01:32 PM) Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
