Surgical drains should be illegal.

I was released from the hospital this afternoon. My calcium levels have been stablized by oral megadoses 4 times a day, and the surgical drain was removed. I have one thing to say about that: SURGICAL DRAINS SHOULD BE ILLEGAL. I was visited this morning by reidents, interns, and a doctor. After asking me how I felt, the Doc asked if I had had my pain meds yet. I was confused because I wasn't on pain meds, and he said he was going to get me some. Then it dawned on me that I was going to be in som… Continue

Surgery and do I have another cancer??

I went to Boston on May 9th for my thyroid surgery. I was feeling pretty good about it--not nervous at all. The surgery took about 3 1/2 hours, and according to the surgeon was routine and uneventful. There was no evidence of disease process outside of the thyroid itself, but the final pathology report will reveal any malignancy. After a total thyroidectomy, a minimum stay of 24 hours at the hospital is required. But of course--I have to be Special Needs! The first 24 hours post-op were miserabl… Continue

I haven't heard from ou in a while. It looks like the message under mine from Bren says she is looking for you also. I've been praying for you. Try if you can to go to the website about Randy Baker, MD. He is the one I've been telling you about who works with people who have just had it to the max with everyone. He is a fantastic man and I saw him and his Physicians Assistant: Cindy Quattro for 3 years. They are a great team. I know that they are on the opposite coast from you...but on their website, you can write to them and email them questions that you have about how you are being treated. I'm sure you've really had it up to here with everything and I'm sorry you haven't been online. I know how it is to suffer and be in pain and I know how it is to want to be alone and just in your own environment and just be with the ones you love the most. I think there is alot to be learned from the butterflies. They were once a catapillar and just crawling on the ground. Then, they themselves create something that was never there before, a Crysalis, and hang from a teeny tiny little button they create and weave themselves into a cocoon and through the mysteries of life, they melt themselves down into a butterfly....it is a great all time mystery. I think this is most probably your time to melt into who you want to be and become and be with those whom you love and respect. I'm praying for you and I'm thinking about you and hope that you will heal and grow and become the woman you want to be. with love and respect, Faith

OY VEY!!! WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE THEY DOING TO YOU AND WHY DO YOU HAVE THE "jobst looking bandages on you?" I'm not sure what to say except that you are very very brave to have such a big smile on your face, I'm not sure about all the tubes and it seems that you must be monitoring the Doctors and the Nurses now to be sure they are reading your charts before they are just walking in to pull out tubes and leave drainage tubes in your beautiful body............man! Where are all the monitoring people? Perhaps we can make a new "movie crew" from my Cousin, Marshall Peck. I told you, I think, (he is the one who does the Sex in the City Movie and T.V. Show....Sara Jessica Parker is a good friend of our family and it just doesn't seem "right" that people: Doctors and Nurses are doing all of that to you....Why not get a little tape recorder and a little video recorder and video them what they are doing to you incase you have to use my old friend and good buddy who is now Maria Shriver's Lawyer: Paul Julian, Attny. at Law. on La Salle Street in Chicago, IL. Hey, if you need to go on 20/20 or ABC News or the CBS Evening News, hey, let's get this: "out there" because if they are doing it to you, you can be damn sure they are doing it to others....what is this all about with the tubes and the pain meds???? Are they out of their minds, crazy???? GET IT ON TAPE AND DON'T LET THEM TOUCH YOU AGAIN UNTIL YOU FILM WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO YOU..........I'VE NEVER HEARD OF SUCH NEGLEGENCE IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!!!! THEY NERVE OF THOSE DOCTORS AND NURSES!!!!!!!! WHO DO THEY THINK THEY ARE MESSING WITH?????????? I HAVE POWER AND I'M NOT AFRAID TO USE THE POWER I HAVE TO EMPOWER OTHERS!!!!!!!

Wait a minute, why in the world would they remove your thyroid if it was benign...that is medical malpractice...you have a lawsuit there, my dear. I used to work for Maria Shriver's lawyer, not a bad job, 'eh? No one should have touched your thyroid if it was benign....what is up with that Dr.? LAW SUIT TIME, AND BESIDES YOU ARE SOOOOOOOOOOO YOUNG.................

If you go into google, you can find the website for Dr. Randy Baker and his Physician Assistant: Cindy Quattro, PA, and more...they are two of the best Dr./PA team I have ever experienced...hey, your abs are gorgeous in this slide show, I'm watching you as I type...great photos...Go immediately, when you can to Dr. Randy Baker's website. I'm working with them on some ideas for an International Healing Center. It will be a place for everyone to go to heal, which is what we all need....I like this tree path before the slide with the Ocean, where is that place? Hey to be all tubed up and have a smile on your face, is a great and powerful attitude....what is that Darth Vader mask thingie? Nice abs lady, nice abs...nice, supportive friends...and a dog & cat...you are definately taking care of your own self, doing a pole dance on the I. V. thingie is spectacular! Let's make some cards and sell them through Starbucks, my son runs the ones out of Seattle, he is the District Manager of Starbucks, not a bad job and I love this photo of the trees and the path. Keep up the smiles and the I.V. Pole Dancing, I love that! Contact Randy Baker, M.D. through his website email and send him what you are going through. Tell them I sent you to them...on my Medical Records, my name will be: Lori C. Peck...tell them I referred you to them. They love me. Tell them I'm working hard on the ideas for the Healing Center and tell them you'd be interested in being one of the first patients to heal at the new center, ok? Love to you and prayers. Keep up the great work and photos....What Ocean are you at? Also, I don't know if I gave you the name of Larry Levin, M.D. He's on the same street as Randy Baker, M.D. Randy is in Soquel, CA and Larry Levin is in Santa Cruz, CA. Larry is the one who invented Thyroid Needle Biopsies and more. He is world famous. His wife loves me, both records are under Lori C. Peck, (for the record...) I was a Foster Child and my foster parents changed my name...so my medical records are different than my biological name if you get the drift. You can call me Faith, everyone else does, and some are calling me a Faith Healer...now, I'm a Jewess Believer in the Lord Yeshua ha Maschiah and believe in the healing power of Faith....you have a great smile, continue to eat healthy, get sun every day, go for walks, say hi to people who are in wheelchairs and can't walk. It's really really important to reach out to others, especially when you are feeling bad....go for a walk and God will show you all kinds of people that are much worse off than you...keep your head up...what is this tree circle of branches? Very interesting photo would make a nice get well card mass produced.....think about it I have an "in" with Starbucks....perhaps you can use my publishing company rights and we can mass produce together. Love to you and love to your positive friends, here on the photo slide show.....Faith

Hi love, I spent the day w/gastro and I also have H pylori bacteria that is so recurrent. It is becoming more common to have this especially for those who have been ill or immuno-suppressed. I think the point raised on the boards was valid, bio-feed back etc works, but I wanted to raise awareness that there are so many other things to investigate on the physical side. I went for four years before I found someone to take me seriously and that all this was not "all in your head"! I detest that mindset. I recognize it is a valid one and emotions can be a trigger, but that is not the only solution as we all seem to agree with. I would hope no one would feel excluded, suffering, so that's why I raised the points I did. I wish you knew where you got that pic, as you can tell by my site, I use it as a virtual vision board. It "ministers" to me and alot of folk in the hood. If you look at everything in depth, it is meant to help others, but also you will come to know my true heart". So I'm always updating, Music will change everytime you open the door now, I get bored hearing the same thing. One of the songs is me. shh, I don't tell people. Now if I could figure out how to make my gonesh #2 incense scent come out...sigh...move over Gates, I'm onto something...hope you had a great day, I spent mine w/hospitals...bah! *~* Bren

Keep posting. i added anothers discussion for those of us first discovering the cause of the pain, in my case its organic, structural damage and seizures. Just wanted to say hi and keep 'em coming.
