Jan 2 2010 IN PAIN!

PAIN IN STOMACH_ LOWER LEFT HAND SIDE, what does it mean?~

Today is Saturday, January 2, 2010 and I am on my third day of a low grade pain in the left side, bottom, of my stomach! It is the first time I've had a strange pain in my "cancer zone"......since PRRT!

I went to the MD on Dec 31 and she told me they would try anti constipation medicine- DUCOLAX as due to Oxy I am very constipated, which may cause my colon to be distended, and with the scar tissue, may cause the pain.  There is some relief when I move the bowels, so I PRAY THIS IS IT!

Option 2, Diverticulitis, which may be due to fact I have been eating nuts, and have had a similar type pain, though more intense, esp when constipated. So for that I got CIPRO and started taking it 2 days ago but still in pain.

If nothing works, by end of day today, I will call MD and get a MRI, which is NOT WHAT I WANT TO DO! I hate hospitals and especially one that does not know me, my rare disease, and all the problems I have had.....when I enter the hospital, and start going through my history, the PC template runs out of room and a siren goes off for the MD INTERNS to come see me and get involved and learn from this "freak of nature"!

I should charge like a side show in the circus! "come see the "renalcarcinoid man" "who is undergoing PRRT in Germany after undergoing 2 clinical trials and after undergoing 3 surgeries!" Come one come all....

I hope this pain goes away..,..pain and cancer go together.....now I am glad I have oxycontin because when I don't take it the pain get more intense. The issue with the pain, it hurt when  I breath in, or touch it or walk or push in the toilet, so its not intense on going pain, which is good, but pain and cancer

IS BAD.....!
