It has been 4 months since I've had an episode of my illness but it seems as though it is back... :'( in all it's pain and glory. Doctors say I'll need an MRI and possibly surgery to see what's going on in my stomach, for those of you who haven't a clue what's going on, original thread: https://newschoolers.com/ns/mobile/forumread/id/584067/

I've been having gastric problems for the last couple of months too. Haven't gotten around to seeing a doctor yet, since I'm not insured in either of the two countries I split my time between.

That sucks but it sounds like they know what's going on without having to cut you open :(

Well I live in Canadia so sadly no medical card for teh w33dz~.
But yeah don't take any painkillers on an empty stomach... especially aspirin, it'll screw you over.

that sounds rough, but look on the bright side...at least by cutting you open, they increase the chances of figuring out whats wrong with you, which means they can figure out how to make it go away.

I know shit like that doesn't do much to reassure you when you're the one going under, but just don't think of it as a one off, painful deal. See it as a step towards getting better

Yeah I'm not so much worried about surgery, I'm totally down for it if it helps make me better, its just until then I have to go through the pain :( stomach problems are the most difficult to diagnose too which sucks, but thanks for the vibes man

No, I've just been knocked out several times and been on oxycontin.
and you have Chrones you say? my friend has had it for several years and the doctors pretty much told him to smoke weed, it helps him keep his food down and sleep so it seems to help him
