Pain in my side possibly discovered...

I got a chance to look at the x-ray with my doctor the other day. (And, my god, is my colon huge compared to my spine! Wow.) Anyhoo...the stent did not move. That's not a bad thing...just not as good as if the cancer went away. The doc said that the reason the colon looks so big could possibly be because of gas that is backed up behind the stendt. He told me to buy some "Gas-x" pills for it. Before even trying any of the pills, I felt some relief. (Oops...was that me? Pardon me.) :-P And I have not had ANY pain in my side for two days now. And that is without pain killers!
