saw gastro doc today. thankfully she cares about me and my awful reflux bc she upped my med for a while and gave me carafate to take on bad days. i hate taking it but its nice shes tryng to prevent gastritis from recurring. im prone to it. my whole family has GI reflux and tummy issues. we all take at least one med. my liver enzymes are being tested tomorrow. i may have to get a liver biopsy and that terrifies me but im glad she takes it seriosuly. shes happy with my weight loss but i need to lose more. she said aim for 5 lbs for next 4 months before my followup with her in july.
