kns57 - 2009-09-11 3:31 PM Phil - good luck this weekend.  You've got a great number...

Thanks, Kendra!  I'll do my best, despite the forecast of being near 80.  It's gonna be a drainer.

Oh thats a great race temp!!! Although Im guessing maybe thats warm for this time of year and that part of the country?

Youve been training, youve worked hard.... enjoy! Have fun!!! Will be cheering from down here!!!

Was 86 here today and  bit more pedicted for tomorrow... then again I didnt have to attempt an IM today

Go Donkey GO!

Thanks, SuperCat!  *BIG HUG*

Artemis - 2009-09-12 11:25 AM Morning everyone.  I just woke up because I spent most of the night in the ER.  On the plus side, I think we know what's causing all the stomach problems - my gallbladder.  On the down side, I am going to have to have it taken out.  The ER doc seemed to think I could wait until after my marathons if I switched up my diet.

Well, on the positive side, at least they figured out what's causing the problems. Hopefully, the diet changes will help it!

I hope so.  I'd really like to postpone surgery until after the marathons.  I've been training way too hard to not get to do them!!

Yay Jen! Didthey say exactly what waswron with the gall bladder?

Awhile ago I had to rush GB to the ER with excruitiating pains and thats what it turned out to be... he did all theinvestigatory stuff and it turned out to be that... they recommended moving it but because the pain hasnt played up for awhile I still dont think he has gotten around to it!

Welcome backStevey - just a week out wont have hurt your training too much... do NOT over do it this week to try and make up... too late for that!

Do a few confidence workouts to make sure you feelcomfortable with the individual distances in each discipline, take the day off two days before... the day before either do nothing or something very short....

Oh... and that thing on the beach you were watching was no doubt a surf lifesaving competition (believe it or not the big ones - at least here in Oz - are called Ironmen competitions)

D001 - 2009-09-13 9:10 AM I *hic* have *hic* the *hic* hiccups. And it's driving me crazy.... Er, crazier.

So.. did they ever stop?

The doc said it looked like it was scarred and spasming. They couldn't see gall stones, but it was contracted. Doc thinks I likely have some they couldn't see or some too small to show up on the scan I feel like I shouldn't be excited about having to have surgery, but I am optimistic that this will solve my stomach problems. He also said that once you have a reoccurring attack, they will happen closer together each time. The last time I had this was a little over a year ago. At this point, I'm ready to get rid of it

Sounds like he knew what he was talking about yay! I can understand you wanting the problem sorted... so its ok to be excited about having a diagnosis  and solution I think....

I know if they said they could operate on me and Id be fixed Id be OVER THE MOON!
