Hi all- WEll a new year ???????

[jetjetjet]

Late December- ,had some tests done, CT chest ,lower abdomen, and groin area's-- ultra sounds of left lower extremities and all upper exstremities. 2009 had massive clotting going on [AS most of you know } 4 0r 5 months back more clotting not DVT but of the superficial type of course in left leg { same area of left leg - where clots in knee area and groin area} in checking other area's they found fatty liver- and a ingunial herna[ the only thing holding the intestin in is the fat ]. sent to Gastroenterology for treatment. needless to say my life in for radical changes. a strong suspicion of Wilsons Disease- going to go thru 13 tests of blood ; diet to be redone { O BOY ] as if they haven't taken enough away already ? my new dc wants me to lose 16 pounds by JULY ????? . I told her if she wanted 16 ugly pounds gone i would simlpy cut my head offf ?? :-). this broke the ice and lightened the mood.after blood tests done weds the 16 th and more ultra sounds and a meeting with a surgeon -. we wil take it from there if results don't change by july then the next step is a liver bi-opsy { HORRAY} .. i did some research on the Wilsons and there is a direct connection to APS . My new DC when asked what she knew about APS she replied she was formiular with it but didn't know of any connection - so i explained to her that where ever there is blood in my body there could be a connection , and i think i found the facts to bring to her.any one out there that might have any info or sugestions i'm really in need of them. [ other than i'm short old and fat O and lets not forget balding }.- speaking of fat the only place on my body where there is any fat is lower abdomen and lower part of back on each side. An operation will be another problem with my risk factor being so high [-some of you will remember my last surgery. .if i lose the fat 1 st -than the intestine could i guess fall out ?? well off to do my 3 day INR bood draw, with the vampires { I have great people in the lab } and even with the trouble they have sometimes, we get along great !! will be back in a couple of hours and can't wait to get back and see what you guys come up with .. fatty jet
