Ran with Kelly and Smooth. Nice easy run. Smooth is in such good condition. I love the positive attitude Smooth has. I learned something new about Smooth, she learned how to golf. "Balls good/fun, Rocks BAD!" :-)
Have a great day!

How's Kelly doing? How did the *procedure* go?

Hi Smooth, Kelly is doing well. The "procedure" went well. Found NOTHING, which is good and bad. Good because its not cancer, polyps or any of those other yucky things. Bad because they couldn't fix anything. Bad because we don't know what is causing the bleeding. More questions than answers. :-

I'm happy NO *yucky* things found!
Darn it that they have no answers for the bleeding. If it was me, I'd press for more answers. How's the integrity of the GI tract? Where is the source of the bleed? What can be done to either find the cause and stop the bleed?
Best wishes!

The colonoscopy came back with a very good/clean colon, but the rest of the GI track isn't looked at. The Dr said that "runners bleeding" is very difficult to diagnose, because damage due to ischemia is usually no longer apparent in a few days. So, we are doing some diet testing ourselves. Dr recommended that she increase fiber in the diet and make sure her hydration is up. In addition to that we have found some research that indicates being careful about using anti-inflammatory medications, such as ibuprofen or aspirin. We pushed that Dr for more info, but he just coming back with the point of view that its difficult to find the reason for this. Which is what we have found on our little research on the internet. We will talk with the Family Dr about the results that he gets towards the end of this week. We may have to go get more tests.

You guys are sooo smart! Often times I find that the doctors don't want to take the time to do the research. I do agreed about the careful use of NSAIDS. I am sure you guys are very good at keeping a log/journal of daily food/fluid/activity history and figure out what might trigger the bleeder. Hope you find the answers soon!
