dh is feeling better!

July 23rd, 2010 at 10:34 pm

I was really worried about my dh. He has been waking up in the middle of the night, with a sharp chest pain and then throwing up a lot.
I finally got him to the doctor on Wednesday. Before they run expensive tests, his doctor decided to switch his heartburn medicine. He has been taking prilosec for about 10 years.
He is on prevacid now and is taking a double dose every morning. He also had to give up some of the food he likes, especially the millions of tomatoes that he has grown. (We are handing them out to all our friends and neighbors)
What he hates the most is that he is not supposed to have a beer when he gets home from work.

The funny thing is, our county just had a vote on beer and wine; and for the first time in the 26 years I have lived here, it passed and will now be allowed to be sold in this area. It passed the same day he was told not to drink any more beer.
I feel sure that once his stomach is back where it should be; he will be allowed beer again. He only drinks one or two.

This could have been an expensive problem, but so far we have only spent $50 for the doctor visit and $45 for the blood work.

The braves won yesterday, the stock market went up and I got a check from Pinecone, so $5 more to add to the $20 challenge.

Prev. total $11,001.00
today 5.00
new total $11,006.00

    I'm glad he's feeling better also. I wonder if there are low acid tomato varieties that he can try his hand at growing for next year.

    My BFF has bad heartburn too. She has found coffee makes hers worse. Glad DH is feeling better.

    Sorry hubby was under the weather. Sometimes our bodies get "used" to meds and we have to switch. Hopefully he can get back to normal and resume his normal diet.

    It's great your dh is feeling better. Wish you could send some of your home-grown tomatoes my way!

    Glad to know he´s feeling better. Frown about the tomatos. Ale loves them, too, but pours lots of lemon on them, so the doctor said no-no!
