<html><div>From Ruth Strackbein</div></html>Hi, Because I may need to resort to 
surgery in order to get relief from day today struggles  with my digestive 
tract which are greatlyinfluenced by the nature of my colon, probably things I 
was born with, I am preparing to seek the services of a surgeon.  However, I 
had a preliminary appointment with him yesterday at which he recommended a 
different approach with medications than I have been using. I am to try this 
for a month, along with my Ondamed preparations.  Then we will see how things 
are going and decide on further steps.  He doesn't want to slice me up any more 
than I want to be sliced up unless we have tried different approaches to my 
problems.  If nothing works, I plan to opt for the surgery  . The other surgeon 
was against it because of my age.  But my daughter reminded this man that I 
have been troubled with this condition for many years and it is getting much 
worse to deal with.  I could live as long as ten years more or so, 
Lord-willing.  If I can be relatively free of my colon problems, that would 
indeed be a blessing.  I am fully aware that there may be other problems.  You 
will note that I am also pursuing natural means of treatment as well.  Thanks 
for your concern.  Ruth

A friend told me when I first ventured into the natural concept is that you go 
to the type of doctor you want.  If you go to a medical doctor you get meds; 
surgeon you get surgery and so forth.  Think she might have had a point.  If 
you go to a natural doctor he is going to try and fix what is wrong not 
symptoms.
Both and all have their place and time.  I just no longer give them the power 
to make the decision for me since I am going to be the one to live with any 
consequences.
