Health update for you all, I took myself to A&E yesterday & finally got somewhere! They put me on a drip which has helped me feel a little better today :-) I had a CT scan and found out that my hiatus hernia is back, which is what I was thinking it was. I had a op about 5 and a half years ago to fix a previous hiatus hernia but my symptoms this time are very different and much worse :-( basically my food is getting stuck in the hernia and having a hard time getting to my stomach which is causing me alot of pain & not being able to keep much food down. I have now lost 17 pound in weight so far! & I now have to wait about 2 weeks for more tests to be done to see how big the hernia is and to make sure that ''nothing else more sinister is also going on'' (Doctors words!) this means I have at least another 2 weeks of not being able to eat much, still strictly no solid food either :-( The doctor did say not to hesitate in coming back to A&E if I get any worse as an obstructed hiatal hernia can be dangerous!
