Hi all. I had more surgery on 5/26 and all was well. No catheter which was a relief. Usually I am given a weeks worth of antibiotics to make sure there is no infection but this time nope. As it turned out early signs told me i needed the antibiotics. I mentioned it to the head nurse but she said they werent needed. She was wrong. I had to drive the 70 miles to the VA on Sunday 6/20. I was in a lot of pain from various problems: the soon to prove infection was so bad my digestion was on a hold pattern. Ass was my post digestion process. I usually am slow to go but this was to the point of being worried. I was badly dehydrated because I was so full and bloated sips of water was all I could get down. No problem holding it down as long as I didnt over do it.
At the ER they plugged me into a bag of saline to rehydrate me, shot me full of 1 days worth of antibiotics, gave me a weels worth of Anti-B pills and were going to give me stool softeners, but I had some of the same stuff at home that they were going to give me so I declined. I ended up ordering some online. They came next day. Who said that USPS is slower than molasses?
Yesterday I got the first result. It was the sh_t heard round the world. My system started working again...slowly, butt surely. My taste came back but I still can't eat a full sandwich or small bag of chips. I can drink water and coffee but coffee and any milk products I have to time carefully, around the antibiotic schedule. They interfere, and especially milk products, as they can cause some problems and make me sicker than I was.
I am getting back to my old self again. I need to get TP. With what I expect to be coming, I'm gonna need it.
Thanks for reading.
PS I also have essential tremors. They are just the shaky hands and other muscles. But they are not debilative, unless I stand to pee. TMI? Sorry.
