Spent from 1:20 yesterday afternoon to about 8 p.m. in the E.R. with an
acute abdomen that hit me like a freight train just as a meeting was
starting. They not sure what it was, but I still feel really lousy.
Supposed to see my primary care doc today. Luckily, the ER and my doc are
only a few blocks away. Was a pretty scary day, continuous pain of 6-7 on
scale of 1-10, with two or three waves a minute that were up to 9. Thank
God for morphine - first time I've had it. Never so much pain for so long.
Never anything even close. Never found the inside of an ambulance so
reassuing to *me* -- it brought back good memories of all the people I had
reassured from the other side of the stretcher.
Would really, really like to know what's going on, but I guess half of these
situations never are diagnosed, they just go away. Leading candidates were
appendicitis and kidney stone, but not clear enough symptoms to open me up.
So, I'll be mostly MIA for a while. Julia has the helm, knows the backup
person (though he's been with me through most of this).
Resolve all petty conflicts while I'm away, please, and discuss the
important stuff with patience and wisdom. Nothing like wondering if you're
gonna surive to put things in perspective.
Sick Nick
