Hi everyone! Sorry I never updated last week after my endoscopy, but my vacation started a day early since I was unable to go back to work after the scope.
It turns out I do have a few small ulcers in my pouch, just as I had figured. The treatment is just the Prevacid and the Carafate, which I started taking when I thought I may have an ulcer. The doctor said they will heal up within a month or so, and they may or may not come back. Some people never get them again, and some have issues with them all the time. So hopefully I will be the former, not the latter!
My cousin Casey flew down from New York last Monday, but I didn't get to see him until Wednesday because he went to visit my sister for the first 2 days. We all had a fabulous time. Wednesday we went to the Astros game, then the Aquarium and the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner. Thursday, we went to Space Center Houston and then to BJ's Brewhouse for dinner. Lots of eating on my vacation! LOL Friday, we spent the day in San Antonio and then BBQ'd with some friends on Friday evening.. Saturday, we went to lunch with my mom, then bowling in the evening. Sunday was brunch at Baba Yega and then we had to take Casey to the airport. I cried. I love my family so much, and miss them all! It was great to see him though, and hopefully we can go up to NY to see everyone soon enough.. I'd LOVE that. :)
This week, I'm catching up on work and in the evenings I'm packing and purging stuff. I'm having a quickie garage sale on Saturday morning to get rid of a bunch of things, and then donating/freecycling the rest. It'll be great to get rid of things! WOO HOO!
I have a doctor's appt with a new OB/GYN that Jil recommended to me. Fun stuff! haha
Anyways, I'll try to post more regularly again, but it probably won't get to be daily until August or so, with all the packing I have planned. FUN! :)
Hope all is well with everyone.. will be catching up on blogs as soon as I can! I feel sooo out of the loop with everyone! :(

glad to hear that you are feelign a bit better on the medication and that you had a good time with your visitor.
Sounds as though you are also doign a fabulous job of decluttering.
I hope it all goes well for you. And you heal well.
I love BJ's pizza very good, probably not for my diet though.
Oof! Ulcers! I hope they heal and give you no trouble. Take care of yourself! :0)
So good to see a post from you! I miss it when my bloggers don't update!
Glad to hear your problems are nothing more serious and wonderful you got to spend time with your cousin! Sounds like you had a blast!
I've been trying to declutter too...giving stuff for our church yardsale. but I have come to the realization that I have a clothing addiction. Yes, they are all second hand clothes, but I have tons and can't part with any that fit me! Guess it has to do with losing 109 pounds, huh? ;)
Glad to read that you're feeling better! You'll be good as new in no time! Congrats on moving... guess I missed that somewhere! I'm so bad about keeping up with everyone.
