Back On SS Tomorrow Posted by MaryL on 6/27/2019, 8:07 pm Back on SS tomorrow. The onset of the Celluitus left me not being able to I eat anything the first day and the medication makes my stomach churn. Every doctor I have seen, suggests yoghurt to restore the bacteria to the intestinal track, and in my mind I thought that was the end of Cambridge SS at least for a few days. PLease no lectures! Quite frankly I feel depressed I just gave up in despair.. There is no break in the pain! The last ER doctor mentioned probiotics which I will be taking. I didn't get any questions answered yesterday at the clinic followup visit. The physician first of all at seeing my legs made a declaration that my infection wasn't an infection and was instead, inflammation, She made that judgment without reading my history or checking the lab work, which revealed the higher than normal white count, evidence of infection, on multiple episodes. Never mind that I had fever and chills! Never mind that the site of the pain was hot to the touch and red, red. She left the room not to return without prescribing the antidepressants which I needed. I will try to make my appointment with someone else from now on and wish there was another choice in clinics nearby.. I am still in extreme pain from the Cellulitus in my left leg, unable to do much. I have an appointment with a vascular surgeon on July 8th. I hope everyone is doing well Sonalie I miss you. Have a wonderful evening everyone! I am going to be watching the debates.

Re: Back On SS Tomorrow Posted by Pam T on 6/30/2019, 8:27 pm, in reply to "Back On SS Tomorrow" All my customers over the years that have dealt with celluitus have made me feel very grateful that I, nor my daughter, have ever had to deal with it. I can't imagine the misery. I'm so sorry you are going through this. Now what in the world is wrong with that Dr????Sounds like she needs to get her money back on her education! Of course you have infection. What does she think is causing the inflammation and all the other obvious signs of infection if not infection?? UGH!!

Re: Bad timing Posted by MaryL on 6/29/2019, 10:45 pm, in reply to "Back On SS Tomorrow" Just when I thought thing would get better- my husband had to have gall bladder surgery. The good news is.....He is now home and recovering.

Re: Bad timing Posted by Pam T on 6/30/2019, 8:33 pm, in reply to "Re: Bad timing" Holy cow! When it rains, it pours. I hope his surgery does as well by him as mine has for me. Getting my gall bladder out was one of my better surgeries. It really improved my quality of life. I'd had no idea how sick that thing had been making me. Wishing him a speedy recovery.

Ginger tea has been helping my sciatica don't know if this will help you but just a thought. I don't take anything but aleve for my hip pain because most medication hurts my head or stomach don't know what I am going to take when I get my surgery in August.
