That BS about couples failing! I hsve gasstropariss and autoimmune liver disease and me and my husband have been VERY happy for 8 years and counting!!!💜
@Philip Sandercock wow!! I have mad respect for you!! It can be so depressing having chronic illness probably why I totally minimized mine. I know how you feel about not doing anything. I barley leave my couch and intimacy lol whats that!! I make makeup videos and thats my "normal" attempt at existence
@Philip Sandercock i have Zero energy and some days going to get the mail is my biggest Accomplishment for the day! The depression is so hard and I have tried to end my life many times just to wake up. The worse 1 was taking s bunch of roxycodine and woke up my body felt like it was vibrating. If i get scared or startled the vibrating comes back. I kinda think i messed up my nerves. Other that throwing up for hours i never got checked out. I wonder why im still here all the time. I also have a failed lumbar fusion and 7 herniated disks in my back & 4in my neck. I got run over by a car. I guess im dooned to livw so i try to find some happiness
@@Maturleyglam I feel your pain the 4 failed c spine surgeries took me down too. I'm sorry you're dealing with it. It's no life ìt's just groundhog day to me.
My husband and I have been together for 20 years, 11 year chronically ill and still very much in love 🥰 xx I have crohns disease and have to have many colonoscopies, it’s hard 🤢
Lotti at Beanie Co Designs i have colitis and was happily with someone for 7 years. The relationship ended for reasons outside my illness but we had 7 happy years together. It is completely possible!! Best wishes to you!
You are literally the strongest person in the world! Rest up and feel better soon!!! My best friend passed away, losing her fight with cystic fibrosis a few years ago... and it helps me cope by watching how strong and amazing you are! And I have to say You and Tom are the sweetest couple ever! Stay strong!!!
NOT TRUE AT ALL. I’ve been with my husband for 16 years now and he’s been chronically ill for 10+ years. I am completely in love and happily been married for 2 years now. I will love this man until the end. ❤️🙏🏽
I love you to bits Amy I was worried about you I’ve been so poorly myself .. I agree with the other girl who’s said the BS about couples don’t succeed with long term chronic illnesses I’ve been married 18 years in August and we have been together 20 years my health got severe around 10 years ago my fibromyalgia my gastropersis excuse my crap spelling I have hemaplegic migraines and he loves me more now than ever you and Tom are the cutest I’m glad you stood up and said how strong you and Tom are x
My parents have been together for 31years, married 28 this year and my mom has had some level of disability since they met and it has definitely gotten worse. She hasn't been able to work since 2001 and all he does is love her more.
My husband is chronically ill and we've been together 6 years and 4 years married. I wouldn't change him for the world. I love him so much. I am also chronically ill myself. So yeah together we work really well. I couldn't imagine my life without him!
I'm so glad your prep and procedure are over and the results are good. I will pray for a complete recovery. My son asked me to watch a movie during this video and I said, "I'm sorry, but I can't until I finish binge-watching all of Amy's latest videos!". Thanks for sharing your life with us.
I have crohns. My fiancé and I have been together for 6 years. I was diagnosed 6 months before I met him. He understands my disease. The good thing is I Havnt had a flare since summer 2016 (on my third biologic medication now). I am so thankful to have him. He supports me in everything. I currently live 5 hours away for PA school and only see him about 4 times a year. I am so thankful I Havnt had a flare up from my stress. A girl the year above me had to have two GI surgeries in her didactic year. She has been a great friend through this schooling too. :) I also plan on eventually specializing in GI because of my disease and I am definitely going to do GI as an elective. :)
I literally want to just crawl through the phone and hug you so tight (without dislocating anything). You're such a trooper and if I handle my procedure like you did, I'll be super proud of myself. You rock girlie ❤❤ so much love.
Squirmy and grubs were asked by dr.phils team to talk on behalf of disability couples (I'm sorry i dont know the actual name) but they declined because they didnt feel it was because of the man being disable that the couple wasnt working and they made a video about it! I love Dr.phil but he was so wrong! I I have congestive heart failure and hypertension cardiomyopathy with an enlarged septum, immune deficiency, IBS, and hinoxslohan's purpura (HSP) or however you spell it, anyways my point is that husband loves taking care of me, he will stay up all night long in the hospital then work a 13hr shift at work. He is an amazing husband and never makes me feel like a burden! People that love each other just work, no matter the obstacles❤
Dr Phil is a TV hack. My husband married me knowing exactly what he was getting into! We are going strong at 28 years. You are such a love Amy and I hope the package of goldfish finally got there!😍😍😍😍
Most people cant imagine going through what you do daily ❤ but your the strongest beauty i know and love your honesty..I realize everytime I have a small problem and freak i remember you and your drive
I have EDS, mast cell, Lupus, chronic Fatigue and POTS and once you accept your sick, you find miracles in the smallest things. For instance, I go into the Hospital and I automatically get my own hospital room because of my illnesses so I get excited about that. Or if I go in for a procedure, I always get spoiled by my doctors because I got a good relationship with my doctors. :P
My hubby and I have been together for 20 years, I met him 6 months after I was diagnosed. I told him how ill I was and feel free to run away. He didn't. He always said if it came to it and I was to become worse he would quit work to look after me. He stuck to his word. Since my initial diagnosis I have been blessed with many more illnesses along the way! I said my illness brought a lot of friends along with it! 🥴😱 and he's still by my side every step of the way.
Amy, I'm chronically ill and I have been married for 28 years. He knew i was sick before we got together, but we fell in love and he has been my rock since day one. So what dr. Phil said is BS. As long as the person your with really loves you they will be with you no matter what. I can tell your man really loves you. I think it is so adorable how he worries about you and takes care of you. He reminds me so much of my wonderful husband.
So proud of you for everything you went through and colonoscopy prep is not nice at the best of times, but YOU DID IT! Glad that they didn't find anything new because you already have so much going on for you. Love you hun xo
Dont listen to anyone y’all are not them y’all are you and I totally understand the prep for the colonoscopy I unfortunately had to drink that nastiness don’t know why it can’t be flavored honestly love your channel hun keep it up
I used the Difflam mouthwash stuff when i had my tonsils taken out and also when i got my tongue pierced (made my whole throat/jaw swell and hurt for at least 3 days straight) and it helped soooo much!!!
I would rather get surgery than do a prep!!! People always think I’m crazy for saying that but It’s miserable!!!! you look like you handle it well so kudos to you 👏🏼 I always just brought a pillow and blanket to the bathroom and never leave! I’m glad everything is ok ❤️
I ve been rewatching and watching some older videos anyway I could Not believe that Dr stating an UNTRUE fact about interabled couples... please Amy ignore that statement... especially you and Tom are in love so much it s obvious with the little tidbits of interactions between you both... this video is a good example . I remember you said in another vlog how both parties need to give it your all... the ill person as well 50/50. You are correct Amy it s not only physical it is companionship and surprises and gifts of any kind... good deeds for one another lifting each other up emotionally. When I see Tom help with your bandages after your shower or getting the sterile field for you It brings a tear to my eye it s so sweet of him... he loves you so much I can tell and we can see this from your videos and when you joke around like when you noticed he took his shirt off in the camera and made that cute comment ... Tom gets his attention in various ways from his gorgeous girlfriend. Never underestimate your worth Amy. You possess three B’s... Brave & Brilliant & Beautiful !
I am happy that your colonoscopy and endoscopy went well and they didn't find anything new!!! I totally feel your pain on doing the prep it is the worst thing. I have had to drink the prep before and the taste is so bad. I ended up puking it up before it even started to work so then the next time I had to do it I had a NG and it still sucked... But I am happy that you made it thru and now it's done and over... Sending lots of love from Oregon!!!
Bowel prep is hideous, I had to do it Sunday for a capsule endoscopy, it makes me ill, I suspect the endoscopy was a fail because my small intestines were not clear, I don't think I can face doing it again, I don't know how others can do it regularly! If you have fast GI motility it might be ok but if it is snail like it makes you pretty ill! Glad you are all done with it.
Glad you are ok. That prep is awful I always feel like I'm going to vomit as its refalting. That's a plus 4 u amy as I can imagine that you wouldn't be able to tolerate it if u drunk it without being sick with your situation of health issues. If only u didn't have to suffer the pain n sickness . It's always good people who have to suffer badly I know. Rest up and get better soon .
I heard about that dr Phil thing and thought of you guys, like what BS. It’s so obvious from even the little snippets of your life that we see that you have such a solid, caring, loving, successful relationship. Both of you take care of each in different ways and you guys are seriously relationship goals
In America my husband did the same tests. They sent him home less than 30 mins after test and that's with a chronic disease. His potassium dropped and the nurses didnt care at all. As far as anesthetic. They dont give any here. Something to relax you but it dont work.
I wish you gave e more input on the actual procedure and how it felt! I'm so scared for mine. I'm very glad nothing new came up for you! It must be much more difficult to do prep when your insides are paralyzed.
Been watching your videos on both channels for awhile now and you honestly amaze me with everything you have to go through and yet you still try your best to live the best life you can you're so inspirational !! Literally always look forward to see your videos in my notifications! You and tom are just the best 😂
When you said “what’s today? Thursday?” I totally felt you. This week has gone by so slowly and I had so many errands to run today like registering my car and getting stuff for that and doing my CPR course that I got home and thought it was Thursday. I live in Brisbane and the weather has been crazy, it’s been so hot that I actually got heat stroke today and I don’t normally get heatstroke
Hey Amy!! You are the second person today that talked about the stupid comments Dr Phil made! Not all Americans are that dumb!! I have a non curable auto immune disease that also brought along a tumor that was stage 3B by the time they found it. I have been married forever 10 years now. I have told my husband on a few different occasions that he could leave and I wouldn't hold a grudge. Every time I said that, he said that he wasn't going anywhere. He has dealt with me being on a ventilator for 12 days, 33 sessions for radiation, chemo therapy, and to many doctors appointments to even count! Yes it can be hard, but it can be done!! There really needs to be a hashtag to promote boycotting he's stupid show!! He also says that "when I was in practice this is what Id do. But he hasn't been in practice for over 20 years!!! He just needs to be off the air!! Thanks for doing all of the wonderful videos that you do! I know how it feels to be so fatigued that you can't hardly move.Sorry for the long comment!! Much love to you and Tom! Lots of love from America!!
Thank you as always for your amazing inspiration! Would you please do something about dripstands? I have this silly little portable stand for my nj feeds that keeps falling over so feed becomes occluded. So so annoying!!! Any advice on this? Thank you xxx
You guys are the best couple out there , some couples just go in the care taker role vs bf/gf role but that is NOT YOU GUYS you guys are literally like soulmates p. Truelove is a kicker!,,, love you guys
So crazy! I’m getting a colonoscopy, endoscopy, and capsule study on the 21st! I’ve had countless endoscopes and colonoscopes, but the capsule study is new, but we’re checking everything so they can can do process of elimination for the NJ trial.
I can totally relate with how terrible colonoscopy prep is. I had to do them yearly for 11 years due to crohns, at which point they fount rectal cancer. Now I have a permanent ileostomy and “Barbie butt”. And every few years have an ileoscopy. Now I only have to fast. I’ve been watching your videos for some time and have been wondering when you were diagnosed? Hope you are keeping well!
I got a uvular ulcer after my hip surgery from being intubated for 2.5 hours. Never happened before but it was awful, like I kept swallowing it and it was massive!
I wouldn’t go out once I’d started the prep! I’ve done heaps of them - completely agree they are horrible! Plus the gas they use to do the procedure causes so much pain with my other chronic illnesses i.e. CRPS (complex regional pain syndrome) EDS (Ehlers-Danlos syndrome), dystonia, Plus other internal problems - obviously seems I need them - I think that speaks for itself! I’m not going to keep listing conditions as we will beat you all day, so I will leave it at that because there’s many more (never mind the fact that it’s great fun trying to measure stuff when you’ve got less than 3% vision). At least now the private hospital I go to uses the gas that you just breathe out as opposed to the other end which makes it slightly less painful throughout your whole body.. But it’s no fun! Best of luck gorgeous… Your lucky you get to go in & go home the same day (it’s a minimum 3 to 4 days for me Hospital: but considering I spent around 12 months straight in hospital when I was 22-3 or four days I can do in my head!) LOL take care of yourself. Looking after yourself is more important than getting UA-cam clips up - I’m in the in the kindest way darling...
I really feel for you re the colonoscopy, I had a colonoscopy & endoscopy at the same time, but have vowed if I can help it not to have a colonoscopy again. Apart from the dreaded prep five days later I had a stomach bleed, three months later a diverticulitis infection followed by another yet another bleed, so much time in hospital with no real answers.. My stomach& whole GI tract isn't great at the best of times, but it took me close on a year to get my stomach almost back to normal.. Hope you're over the worst & feeling a little better xx
when I had to do one of those, I managed to find just pure magnesium citrate (the active ingredient in the prep) without the unnecessary added ingredients which are what make me sick... the mag cit makes you need lots of fluids otherwise you will be dehydrated but you don't get nausea or headaches or anything else if you don't have the aspartame and artificial flavours and other rubbish they put in the prep for some reason which I don't understand... Maybe if you have to do it again you might be able to get pure mag citrate and you might feel less ill with the prep as a result... Certainly works for me anyhow x
Seriously! Why is it so hard to get the hip back in but so easy to pop it out!? Oof I popped mine out yesterday hubs had to get it back in took days lol. Not really days but ya Haha. Me n my hubby have been together 10 yrs this winter but have known each other since we were small kids. We were friends off most of the time and then we ended up together and I see the strain on him but when I say anything he always says he's not going anywhere. I'll be like but you could be so much happier with somebody else, he just gives me a kiss on my nose n says we will be fine babe. I don't know what I'de do without him he's amazing. You are both so lucky to find your penguin too
Glad it all went okay and I hope your feeling better soon! i'm having surgery very soon and it'll be my first time going under general anaesthetic, is there any prep or post op things you recommend I do to make it more comfortable? I love you to bits and the UK says hello! Xx
I had been dating someone for 6 months when I got diagnosed with a genetic disorder. I spent three months telling him he could opt out. We celebrated ten years last September and we’ve got a three year old. I think I’m fine saying the guy who misrepresented his credentials was wrong.
Im worried Amy , haven’t heard any news since your colonoscopy I think. I’ve had one of those without sedation and they are miserable 😩. I hope your ok. My merch arrived beautiful soft pink t with the AL logo. Thanks barb
In my opinion Dr. Phil is full of crap, my Nan and Pop were married 60 years and my pop was really ill so my Nan was his carer and my Nan said she would do it all over again if she had to for my Pop because she loved him dearly and he was her world.
I'm disabled and have a fabulous partner. My health has declined since we started living together, but he was aware of the progress of my disease prior to living together. I realize the Doctor was making a generalized statement, but it certainly isn't true for us
My husband and I started dating while I was in the process of my diagnosis, and we are even stronger married and with the diagnosis... The people who split and stuff over these things should have never been together in the first place... "For better or worse, in sickness and in health" Like literally the vows of marriage state no matter what you support each other...
I hated my prep for my colonoscopy it made me sick dehydrated and couldn't move my lower half for 3-4 days after the procedure because the prep dehydrated me so bad my muscles wouldn't work had to spend 4 days in hospital after the procedure. Next time I have to be admitted to be on constant fluids ☹️ x
Dr Phil knows nothing! I have smas and I have been with my boyfriend since I was diagnosed, not once has it caused us any problems because he’s always there for me and he loves me for me ❤️❤️
The doctor who made the comment about couples failing because of chronic illness, have OBVIOUSLY not met you and Tom. You are a lovely couple. I have had 12 colonoscopy’s in my lifetime (I am 50), and I hated every one. They are disgusting! Feel better soon. Sending you lots of warm South African sunshine.
My husband and I are the same way in hospital. I have extreme nerve damage on the right side of my body due to severe chronic pancreatitis and type one diabetes. He'll often lie on the hospital bed next to me so I can knead/breathe against his chest. 😂😂
Coralie Dubois We would only use an Enema for a flexi sigmoidoscopy, the colonoscopy scope is 5 feet long and can be passed the full 5ft through the colon where it will meet debris from weeks ago, and it’s only 1inch wide so it’s very tricky to pass through the colon without any debris let alone with debris. An enema will only clear out the rectum hence why it’s commonly used for constipation and flexi sigs.
my husband and I been together sense Nov 2 2 2012 and I have 10 chronic illnesses plus I have a heart condition called POTS syndrome and other heart condition called PSVT and a fatal lung disease called emphysema I'm in and out of the ER 1-3 times of month and I tons of doctor appointments and medical test and we are still very much in love my husband always tells me when I'm upset "i'm not going anywhere I'm here threw sickness and health"
That BS about couples failing! I hsve gasstropariss and autoimmune liver disease and me and my husband have been VERY happy for 8 years and counting!!!💜
@Philip Sandercock wow!! I have mad respect for you!! It can be so depressing having chronic illness probably why I totally minimized mine. I know how you feel about not doing anything.

@Philip Sandercock You are lucky to have her, my husband took off said he needed a better life. I hope he's happy, at least one of us is.
@@Maturleyglam I feel your pain the 4 failed c spine surgeries took me down too. I'm sorry you're dealing with it. It's no life ìt's just groundhog day to me.
You have autoimmune hepatitis too? I’ve never met someone that had it too, so cool!
My husband and I have been together for 20 years, 11 year chronically ill and still very much in love 🥰 xx I have crohns disease and have to have many colonoscopies, it’s hard 🤢
Lotti at Beanie Co Designs i have colitis and was happily with someone for 7 years. The relationship ended for reasons outside my illness but we had 7 happy years together. It is completely possible!! Best wishes to you!
Why do you have to have so many colonoscopies? What are they looking for?
"WHOO Take it off!" "stoooop"
I just laughed for like three minutes, y'all are cute
You are literally the strongest person in the world! Rest up and feel better soon!!! My best friend passed away, losing her fight with cystic fibrosis a few years ago... and it helps me cope by watching how strong and amazing you are! And I have to say You and Tom are the sweetest couple ever! Stay strong!!!
I’m chronically ill and have been with my husband for 11 years. Dr. Phil is a crackpot!😆
That's being nice- I could call him worse ! I'd rather have medical advice from Dr Pepper!
Or Dr Hannibal Lecter - I know he doesn't really exist but still !
@Eli Dewitt I agree !! He's smarter than any doctor that I've ever had or known!!
NOT TRUE AT ALL.
I’ve been with my husband for 16 years now and he’s been chronically ill for 10+ years. I am completely in love and happily been married for 2 years now. I will love this man until the end. ❤️🙏🏽

Literally always look forward to see your videos in my notifications! You and tom are just the best 😂
When you said “what’s today? Thursday?” I totally felt you. This week has gone by so slowly and I had so many errands to run today like registering my car and getting stuff for that and doing my CPR course that I got home and thought it was Thursday. I live in Brisbane and the weather has been crazy, it’s been so hot that I actually got heat stroke today and I don’t normally get heatstroke
Hey Amy!! You are the second person today that talked about the stupid comments Dr Phil made! Not all Americans are that dumb!! I have a non curable auto immune disease that also brought along a tumor that was stage 3B by the time they found it. I have been married forever 10 years now. I have told my husband on a few different occasions that he could leave and I wouldn't hold a grudge. Every time I said that, he said that he wasn't going anywhere. He has dealt with me being on a ventilator for 12 days, 33 sessions for radiation, chemo therapy, and to many doctors appointments to even count! Yes it can be hard, but it can be done!! There really needs to be a hashtag to promote boycotting he's stupid show!! He also says that "when I was in practice this is what Id do. But he hasn't been in practice for over 20 years!!! He just needs to be off the air!! Thanks for doing all of the wonderful videos that you do! I know how it feels to be so fatigued that you can't hardly move.Sorry for the long comment!! Much love to you and Tom! Lots of love from America!!
So glad to know you are doing okay and everything went well with your procedure. ❤️💕
Thank you as always for your amazing inspiration! Would you please do something about dripstands? I have this silly little portable stand for my nj feeds that keeps falling over so feed becomes occluded. So so annoying!!! Any advice on this? Thank you xxx
I'm also chronicly ill and I've been with husband for 19 years. He's my rock and soul mate!!! ❤️💋🙏
You guys are the best couple out there , some couples just go in the care taker role vs bf/gf role but that is NOT YOU GUYS you guys are literally like soulmates p. Truelove is a kicker!,,, love you guys
So crazy! I’m getting a colonoscopy, endoscopy, and capsule study on the 21st! I’ve had countless endoscopes and colonoscopes, but the capsule study is new, but we’re checking everything so they can can do process of elimination for the NJ trial.
I can totally relate with how terrible colonoscopy prep is. I had to do them yearly for 11 years due to crohns, at which point they fount rectal cancer. Now I have a permanent ileostomy and “Barbie butt”. And every few years have an ileoscopy. Now I only have to fast. I’ve been watching your videos for some time and have been wondering when you were diagnosed? Hope you are keeping well!
Where are you Amy? I miss you so bad😢😢😢😢
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Amy you are so cute! I love how much Tom loves you and you guys are together. Feel better soon sweetie ❤🙏😀
I'm glad you're feeling better and I'm glad they didn't find anything have a good day. Mary
I got a uvular ulcer after my hip surgery from being intubated for 2.5 hours. Never happened before but it was awful, like I kept swallowing it and it was massive!
I wouldn’t go out once I’d started the prep! I’ve done heaps of them - completely agree they are horrible! Plus the gas they use to do the procedure causes so much pain with my other chronic illnesses i.e. CRPS (complex regional pain syndrome) EDS (Ehlers-Danlos syndrome), dystonia, Plus other internal problems - obviously seems I need them - I think that speaks for itself! I’m not going to keep listing conditions as we will beat you all day, so I will leave it at that because there’s many more (never mind the fact that it’s great fun trying to measure stuff when you’ve got less than 3% vision). At least now the private hospital I go to uses the gas that you just breathe out as opposed to the other end which makes it slightly less painful throughout your whole body.. But it’s no fun! Best of luck gorgeous… Your lucky you get to go in & go home the same day (it’s a minimum 3 to 4 days for me Hospital: but considering I spent around 12 months straight in hospital when I was 22-3 or four days I can do in my head!) LOL take care of yourself. Looking after yourself is more important than getting UA-cam clips up - I’m in the in the kindest way darling...
GOD Bless sweet Amy! Feel better!
Glad all is well
I just had my gastroscopy and colonoscopy last week! Love ur vids💜
I really feel for you re the colonoscopy, I had a colonoscopy & endoscopy at the same time, but have vowed if I can help it not to have a colonoscopy again. Apart from the dreaded prep five days later I had a stomach bleed, three months later a diverticulitis infection followed by another yet another bleed, so much time in hospital with no real answers.. My stomach& whole GI tract isn't great at the best of times, but it took me close on a year to get my stomach almost back to normal.. Hope you're over the worst & feeling a little better xx
So glad that you are doing well! I certainly did miss seeing your vlogs. 💖💖
Dr Phil is a jagaloon 😂 healing and happy vibes to you!
Where do you get those masks from they look so much nicer than the ones i can get locally
Amy, I hope everything is okay with you! We worry when you don’t post or say anything. ❤️
Your so strong Amy! Xx
Is there a video on how her & Tom met? I’d like to hear about it. Dr. Phil is wrong, yeah not all work out but not 100% fails
when I had to do one of those, I managed to find just pure magnesium citrate (the active ingredient in the prep) without the unnecessary added ingredients which are what make me sick... the mag cit makes you need lots of fluids otherwise you will be dehydrated but you don't get nausea or headaches or anything else if you don't have the aspartame and artificial flavours and other rubbish they put in the prep for some reason which I don't understand... Maybe if you have to do it again you might be able to get pure mag citrate and you might feel less ill with the prep as a result... Certainly works for me anyhow x
Glad you’re ok. Rest and recover. ❤️
Seriously! Why is it so hard to get the hip back in but so easy to pop it out!? Oof I popped mine out yesterday hubs had to get it back in took days lol. Not really days but ya Haha. Me n my hubby have been together 10 yrs this winter but have known each other since we were small kids. We were friends off most of the time and then we ended up together and I see the strain on him but when I say anything he always says he's not going anywhere. I'll be like but you could be so much happier with somebody else, he just gives me a kiss on my nose n says we will be fine babe. I don't know what I'de do without him he's amazing. You are both so lucky to find your penguin too
girl i feel your pain. i just had a colonoscopy and gastroscopy this morning and holy hell, the last two days have been hell trying to prep for it.
Hugs to you sweet girl. 💕
Glad it all went okay and I hope your feeling better soon! i'm having surgery very soon and it'll be my first time going under general anaesthetic, is there any prep or post op things you recommend I do to make it more comfortable? I love you to bits and the UK says hello! Xx
I had been dating someone for 6 months when I got diagnosed with a genetic disorder. I spent three months telling him he could opt out. We celebrated ten years last September and we’ve got a three year old. I think I’m fine saying the guy who misrepresented his credentials was wrong.
Im worried Amy , haven’t heard any news since your colonoscopy I think. I’ve had one of those without sedation and they are miserable 😩. I hope your ok. My merch arrived beautiful soft pink t with the AL logo. Thanks barb
Congratulations Amy. It’s all over now😀😀😀
In my opinion Dr. Phil is full of crap, my Nan and Pop were married 60 years and my pop was really ill so my Nan was his carer and my Nan said she would do it all over again if she had to for my Pop because she loved him dearly and he was her world.
I'm disabled and have a fabulous partner. My health has declined since we started living together, but he was aware of the progress of my disease prior to living together. I realize the Doctor was making a generalized statement, but it certainly isn't true for us
Had my repeat endoscopy, colonoscopy and gastric emptying test in Feb....ugh!!!
Get well soon Amy and that’s is great news 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍............
You are such a inspiration! Much love from Sweden 🇸🇪 🤗
everytime you get me with yawns i never fail to yawn lol
My husband and I started dating while I was in the process of my diagnosis, and we are even stronger married and with the diagnosis... The people who split and stuff over these things should have never been together in the first place... "For better or worse, in sickness and in health" Like literally the vows of marriage state no matter what you support each other...
Sending you so much love! ♥
Great to know about you. You're so strong! Hope you feel better ❤ i see you from Argentina
hi! just wondering how the pain patch is for you? is it working? c
I hated my prep for my colonoscopy it made me sick dehydrated and couldn't move my lower half for 3-4 days after the procedure because the prep dehydrated me so bad my muscles wouldn't work had to spend 4 days in hospital after the procedure. Next time I have to be admitted to be on constant fluids ☹️ x
Dr Phil knows nothing! I have smas and I have been with my boyfriend since I was diagnosed, not once has it caused us any problems because he’s always there for me and he loves me for me ❤️❤️
The doctor who made the comment about couples failing because of chronic illness, have OBVIOUSLY not met you and Tom. You are a lovely couple. I have had 12 colonoscopy’s in my lifetime (I am 50), and I hated every one. They are disgusting! Feel better soon. Sending you lots of warm South African sunshine.
My husband and I are the same way in hospital. I have extreme nerve damage on the right side of my body due to severe chronic pancreatitis and type one diabetes. He'll often lie on the hospital bed next to me so I can knead/breathe against his chest. 😂😂
In your case, since your digestive tract is almost empty, wouldn't an enema (or a few of them) be easier and less painful to do?
Coralie Dubois We would only use an Enema for a flexi sigmoidoscopy, the colonoscopy scope is 5 feet long and can be passed the full 5ft through the colon where it will meet debris from weeks ago, and it’s only 1inch wide so it’s very tricky to pass through the colon without any debris let alone with debris. An enema will only clear out the rectum hence why it’s commonly used for constipation and flexi sigs.
Good luck to you hun.
my husband and I been together sense Nov 2 2 2012 and I have 10 chronic illnesses plus I have a heart condition called POTS syndrome and other heart condition called PSVT and a fatal lung disease called emphysema I'm in and out of the ER 1-3 times of month and I tons of doctor appointments and medical test and we are still very much in love my husband always tells me when I'm upset "i'm not going anywhere I'm here threw sickness and health"
So much love for you x
Ive hit the Bell, does that mean it will notify me when you post in that community bit now?
Dr. Phil is a real quack. I honestly dont think hes a real doctor. I really do think that he got his degree as a prize inside a cereal box.
Erika Baird He isn't a medical doctor, he has a Ph.D in psychology. But he is a shit psychologist.
@@ErikaSynvillan well he definitely got his psychology degree as a prize inside a cereal box lol.
He is hugely problematic and always has been.
He hasn't been licensed in over 10 years
He likes causing drama for his shows.
Don't believe that! You and Tom put in 100% in the relationship, that's all that matters.
Love you so much Amy. You’re amazing. 💖
What’s the difference between endoscopy and gastroscopy? I may need to get a upper GI endoscopy soon Xx from Emily
THE WHITTY POET endoscopy is the same as gastroscopy just different names! I think anyways 😅❤️
I haven't had any new uploads since March. Are you okay and when can we expect to hear from you?
Hey Amy I’m getting my endoscopy and colonoscopy next month I’m happy they didn’t find anything bad and it went ok
