Well, just had my hypaque study done, we have a diagnosis, yahoo! It's not all in my head! Lol! Seems the valve in my Kock pouch is leaking because it's not creating a firm seal, allowing things to leak out from time to time. The valve itself is slightly kinked or bent, now, I have to wait for Dr Cohen to speak with the radiologist and see what type of surgery is necessary. Sadly, surgery is the only option, and while I'm not crazy about the idea of enduring yet another very painful surgery (this one is only about 4 hours long, it cannot be done laparoscopically, but, it's still better then the 9 hour surgery I had last June), I am grateful it can be repaired. Now, all I have to do is pray, get it done, so I can finally get on with my life, I've had enough time off sick to last a life time, I want to get back to work, and back to living again (I know, sounds strange, but I really enjoy my work, and trust me, even though you may think you never want to work again, try being off sick, and in pain, for over a year, you'll know how I feel). Thanks for all your support guys, it's much appreciated, I'll keep you posted as soon as I find out more,

Cheers!
