Thank you for much for your story it was very encouraging to me. I am on day 13 of my MC and I have noticed that a rash that I have had on the side of each arm (strange hugh?)for 2 years is almost gone!! Amazing! However, the cyst/tumor that I am concerned about needs a cscan (another sch 2/03)to see any change. So I am doing all I can b4 2/03.
Thanks again,

Dear MH;
Last June I went into the ER w/severe gas pains after eating Chinese food 4 days prior. I had never experienced such bloating and pain. It was so bad it scared me. Anyway, they gave me a pain injection and then they decided to do a cscan. They did not find the cause of the gas. (I went home. I took the advise of a cousin who told me to eat a Russel Stoffer sugarfree peanut cluster. I did and that broke the wind. I had explosive flatulance for days) They did, however, find in the cscan a 2.5cm cyst/tumor on the tail end of my Pancrease near the spleen and lying on a little duct. It is described as one central tumor w/grape like clusters around it. The surgeon said a biopsy is inconclusive, removal the best option. I do not want to be cut for somthing I have no symtems for, and that may be benign. I have another cscan scheduled for 2/03 to see if chnge in size. Surgery is recommended following. That is why I wish to do all I can on my own before considering anything else. This is day 13 of my MC. You would not believe the amount of mucus that encases the sludge exiting me. On day 10 I threw up gobs and gobs of mucus. I stopped eating all flesh but fish in 1979 but I guess I made up for it in the consumption of "white foods". With this health scare and seeing all this mucus I am so turned off to the bread and cheese. I intend to become very intimate w/my veggies and fruits. I am grateful for any info you can share.
Thank you,
