A Sick Day

Today has been a sick day. I wasn't feeling the best this morning but carried on as long as I could. I had a really uneasy stomach and finally had to give it up and lie down. I was scared thinking, oh, no, my pancreatitis is back. I hadn't eaten anything feeling like I would throw up. But I'm feeling much better now. I've been sitting on the couch with my iPad commenting. Now I will see if my discussion will submit. It did last night so I'll try again. Maybe I will still be lucky.

Neither would I wish anyone to be sick. It's miserable.

My dad has that same fear. I can remember a couple of times he got pretty anxious thinking he was having a recurrence. I'm glad you aren't dealing with it again.

@RubyHawk Do they keep close tabs on you to make sure you don't get pancreatic cancer?

@AmbiePam I spent time in the hospital several times before surgery. Part of my pancreas was taken out. I have seen Mary Poppins but it's been so long that I don't remember the details.

Sorry you weren't feeling your best. Does your posts not always upload when you use your ipad? I can use my tablet but it takes a bit longer do write and do things. Uploading itself isn't so bad with it though. Mine will usually bother me before going to bed and after a few hours trying to sleep it gets better and goes away completely. I've not determined yet if I'm eating something my body no longer likes or what exactly.

@RubyHawk On the days when your ipad doesn't allow you to submit a post are you able to copy and paste it into a document of some type and save it to upload later on? While I'm able to write and post a bit on my tablet, I have no idea how to copy and paste something from one place to another. And, if I don't have an image to use on my tablet then I have to add an image later on. I even got an app that's for copying and pasting from one thing to another on my tablet, but it didn't come with instructions and I've since deleted it.

Sometimes my iPad will submit and other times won't. Yes, most stomach aches are related to food we've eaten.

@MarshaMusselman There could be a way to copy and paste on my iPad but neither doI have instructions and I'm not very tech savvy. Anyway when my discussion doesn't submit it disappears.

I had a piece of my pancreas taken out last fall. I hoped that was the end of it. It was a growth on my pancreas.

I think I know what could have caused it. I had eaten fresh pineapple and it tasted very acidic. I won't eat pineapple anytime soon.

@RubyHawk A lot of people have trouble with acidic foods. I'm one of the lucky ones. I think my stomach is made of cast iron.

Well, it posted. What do you do when you have a pancreatitis flare up? Do you know what causes it? Rest well and take care of yourself. We will be here when you are feeling better.

I had surgery last fall which should have fixed it. But I still have concerns when I'm not feeling well.

Good that your discomfort subsided without treatment. Could be gas - just thinking.
