I have bacteria!!
| Tue, 02-07-2006 - 11:26pm |
The doctor's office called today and said my biopsy was positive for H. pylori bacteria in my stomach, which means I just have to take two antibiotics and prevacid for a week and it should be gone!

Now that is really good news - bacteria are always treatable. Woo-hoo! What a relief.
I have been having a tough couple of weeks because my aunt went into the hospital 2 and a half weeks ago (on Sunday night) unable to breathe. She has been on a respirator since. She was in intensive care until this past Saturday (just under 2 weeks) when they moved her to a pulmonary step-down unit. Emphysema. I have spent more time in a hospital this past couple of weeks than I ever wanted to. At least now her prospects for actually living through this look very good. We weren't sure for awhile. Ugh.
Anywho - I am super glad that you will be better soon. Are you still going to stick to a diet?
Big hugs Jules. Thats really rough. Glad to hear she's going to make it though:)

And hugs to you, I know how sitting and waiting in a hospital can be.
Thanks, Lesley, I appreciate the thoughts.
On a totally unrelated note - have you noticed the absence of our poster here who liked to quote the statistics? I think of him when I see your name because he called you something funny that I can't recall.
I read somewhere where you get it, but the only thing I remember that popped out at me was kissing.
