MRI time.

by glennsellnow

Had my MRI scan for my rectum this week and I am waiting for results.  I am privileged to live in a country with this technology and to have insurance that pays the massive bill.  Look at the many people living in third world countries without access to good medical care.  I hope the tests don't show any type of new disease or anything that needs aggressive correction.  It may not be Crohn's disease this time according to one of the doctors who did a physical examination of me but I hope he is wrong.

God can heal all diseases but I have seen from reality and the Bible (Apostle Paul) that not all diseases are healed.   I believe that prayer with faith has power and it should be exercised.  Jesus may choose to explain why everything is the way it is when we talk it over in heaven after this life but I leave that in his hands.  I appreciate everyone's prayers.

Getting some medical tests done because I have been having some symptoms that seem like a Crohn's flare to me.  MRI is next and that should show if there is anything more sinister than Crohn's lurking about.  One doctor who examined me mentioned the possibility that this could be cancer so I need to take everything seriously.  There is some type of growth that he could see however Crohn's is notorious for growths and I have been incorrectly told that I have cancer on previous occasions.  Hope it's just Crohn's disease acting up.  I hate all these tests but I would hate cancer even more.

Repeal the Second Amendment?

A few influential liberals have suggested that we should repeal the second amendment.

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

This would be a simplistic mistake in my opinion that our country may regret years from now.  Currently there is a concern about mass shootings but I think steps can be taken to reduce this threat without repealing the second amendment.  The total elimination of all danger to soft targets can't be accomplished by taking away the rights of law abiding citizens.  The emotional upset from the terrible deaths of innocent people is understandable and we should take action to insure that these types of deaths are prevented.

The people who belong to the NRA and similar organizations did not kill those innocent people.  The current revolution style anti-gun movement seeks to demonize the NRA and any politician accepting contributions from them.  This approach may backfire.  It would be better if common ground could be found to prevent deaths.

The second amendment is relevant for today just as it was when written.  Many people today are unfamiliar with personally using firearms.  We live in nice safe neighborhoods and have armed police to keep the peace.  Many types of large scale disaster scenarios could easily happen to sections or all of our country that might make safety in your neighborhood more questionable.   It may be comforting to have your own Arms available to protect your family.  The police simply do not have enough officers to go around in many disasters and the national guard may be taking care of bigger problems.

I agree with Thomas Jefferson who said, "I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery".

Might need some minor surgery.

May need some minor surgery in the near future because antibiotics and other medications are failing to fix the pain in my rump.  Doctors want to do tests first to locate exact problem but I strongly suspect it is another abscess which is just hard to find.  I used to get abscesses every several months until I started taking biologic based meds which cleared it up but these meds eventually lose effectiveness against Crohn's over a long period of time so they switch you to a new one.  Will probably need to switch to a new medication other than remicade if this is an abscess but it could be something else at this point.  Usually surgery on an abscess is just a day procedure.  Would appreciate your prayers for a quick resolution to this issue and a fast recovery.  Thank you.

New Pain in the Buttock

Looks like I have an all new kind of pain in the left side of my rump.  Described it to the doctor over the internet and they suspect it may be an abscess related to Crohn's and I need to go in to see her because that would require some immediate minor surgery.  I used to get a lot of these Crohn's abscess  before I started taking the biologic type medications so I hope this is not going to be a recurrence of those fun times.  This pain seems a little different from the abscess type pain I experienced during those episodes but I am sure they will test all possibilities.

The alternative  may be that it is a sciatica nerve pain which they will also check.  Either way looks like I'm going in to see a Doctor and get some testing done.

My book on Crohn's Disease is for sale on Amazon!


Check out my latest book Glenn's Crohn's Disease Survival Guide which is live for sale on Amazon.  You can download a free sample from Amazon and the entire book only costs $3.69 .  This book has the details of all the free entertainment that Crohn's Disease has given me over the last 20 years and how my faith in Jesus Christ has helped me overcome that disease.  It's worthwhile reading if you have a chronic disease and is good educational material for anyone. You can't go too far wrong for a price of $3.69 and I personally think it's a pretty good read even though I am biased.
