medical update

My attempt to gain weight has not been going very well. I have colitis that really acted up, it gave me severe abdominal pain, & I put in a lot of time in the bathroom. This caused me to go down from 87 lbs. to 82 lbs. within a month or less. If I was on the Biggest Looser, I may have won with a 6% weight loss! My gastroenteroligist told me to use Pepto Bismol 4X's a day, and it seems to be working, I've gained a couple of lbs. back. Once that started to get better, I was getting chest pain when I took deep breaths, this went on 2 weeks and I ended up at a Pulmonologist, who ordered a CAT scan and Pulmonary Function Test. Shortly after having the tests, I began to feel better. the pain went away completely. The Dr said both tests were OK, and he felt I probably aspirated something. It didn't block my lung, but probably irritated and inflammed them, giving me the pain.
