Thanks, All of you for the well-wishes. This is the best I have felt since getting this "disease". I would defenitely recommend a trial. And, yes, Larry, I had a UTI just before: they called me and called in a couple of antibiotics that we had to go by and pick up on the way to the airport.
They also gave me a 'routine' bout of Keflex after the stage one surgery. I may have to still worry about retention: but I do have a catheter with me in case I need it. Hang in there, folks. I am your poster child for today! Cora
