I knew something was not right when I got out of bed - nothing in night bad, stiff legs, minor discomfort. I WAS going to irrigate it, but thought it was gas and would go away. when being out in 50 degree rain felt good, I knew I was in trouble. My son was here but - you know...... so I called the nurse around noon. I was just about to go outside and just cut the Foley off so I could pass water naturally but she said she'd hurry - bumped me up ahead of everyone on her schedule. I gotta do something nice back, any ideas? AZDAVE In a message dated 1/13/2011 3:46:22 P.M.

I'll never let that happen again.

I called my visiting nurse who does monthly changes for me and she heard the stress in my voice. She was here in about the longest 45 minutes I have ever spent - well with maybe 1 exception of when they inserted my traction in '67. She swapped out my tube and I felt instant relief from the pounding head and gut crushing pressure. AD is certainly nothing to mess with. My sympathies to any who have to deal with AD on a regular basis. AZDAVE =
