The fun continues....

[Guest guest]

Good Afternoon everyone... How much more fun can life get. The

medical drama really needs to stop for once. As you know the Mds are

treating an infection in my sinus. The flu feeling is now about a 4,

is a good thing. Had a setback on Thursday/Friday but am heading in

the right direction again. My infectious Md wanted to see me next

week, but I will be in Indianapolis. He wants more tests. They are

looking further, should be better by now. Have been on antibiotics

for 20 days now. They are still looking for the source. He told me

to see the ID Md (infectious disease) while in Indianapolis. Ya,

sure....No way.... Too far from home. Stenting is one thing, but

seeing the ID Md there, No.... Will see my local ID Md when I

return. So in the mean time I am to stay on the antibiotics and see

him when I get back. I will try and figure this out before I see him

again.

I am going to Indianapolis on Tuesday for an ERCP on Wednesday.

Most likely, due to me being sick, the stenting will stop. He will

probably just pull the double stents and not continue. That will

stink because I want to remain open the longest and was only one more

stenting away from being done. I can eat everything again, no

diarhhea and no pain. So thats good, it is open and flowing. When my

ducts close up again, hopefully I will be well and the stenting can

continue for the stretch I need to stay open long.

I do have a question. Can a hernia, mid abdominal, the size of a

lemon, that pops out sometimes, become a life threatening condition

or does it just remain a nuscience. (sp) Could it make you feel like

the flu? Just wondering about this situation, thanks for the replys.

Talk to you soon

Love,
