    recently or currently in the hospital

    I've been thinking about how to start this over the last few days as I have been laying here in pain, and at this time (and many others) in LA LA land. Thought it would be a good idea to keep others up to date on members in the hospital and more importantly to give others a perspective of one's physical state around the time posts were made.

    Back to my situation, I have been in since Wednesday morning and actually started with an ER visits Monday Morning. My original diagnosis was gout, but that has changed to an infection. Either way, my right ankle looks like a ham bone and i'm drugged up on morphine and percocept. Hopefully, I haven't made any stupid or annoying posts yet.

    I can't help you with the Private Message you sent me. First off... I don't own a gorilla. I do have a pink bikini but I can't get to it til spring. Now I can help you with the Fat Back and the old lady wig you asked about. I also I can't go to Jamaica with you. My wife says I have to take her first. I guess your meds are working....LOL LOL

    I had my gall bladder out last year in May. I'm not a big med guy but after that horrible pain and surgery I vowed to take much better care of myself. Its kind of working. All the best to you.

    Prayers sent. I hope that its not MERSA. That is a b**tch to kick (my MiL was on out-patieint vanco for a long,long time). Get well and back to scrapping!!

    NJSouth- Like it your "pms"!!!! Funny stuff. I had my gb out almost exactly a year ago. First surgery and first hospitalization I ever had. The worse pain I had was the indirect shoulder stuff a couple of days afterwards as the CO2 bubble worked its way out of the bod. They told me about it ahead of time and the "excercise" position a person was supposed to get in to releave it. Not very practical in my opinion. That, and the couple times that I forgot to have a pillow pushed hard into me when I sneezed. Now that frigging hurt!!! (who would think??)

    I've never had gall bladder problems but in my 51 years I have become very efficient in relieving "air bubbles".
