Re: surgery complications - or what?
Pam,
I've been wondering how your doing now? Is your hemoglobin still going up? Have the doctors figured out what was causing the blood in your stool? Hopefully some just benign reason. I read just having a bad case of diarrhea can cause blood in your stool. So maybe that's all it is? I hope they have found out for you don't have to wait and worry any longer.
Are you still at the Re-hab, or have you managed to get home yet? I hope your feeling better and starting to get around a bit without too much pain. When you feel up to it I'd love to hear how your doing? Sending you warm healing thoughts and prayers. Hope your at home now where your more comfortable. Wishing you a very Happy New Year.
Chelee
