Day 0009 & An Update

First, here is yesterday's POD:


These are 3 of the people I went to go see Hamlet with last night.

Gallbladder update:  Things are looking up!  I am "due" for another Vicodin and actually feel no pain! So I am going to head to bed and hope that I stay sleeping all night!  This gallbladder thing might turn out have a silver lining.  It really wouldn't kill me to give up fried food. In fact, it might kill me if I don't. 

Gallbladder & Ovaries

I spent 4 hours in the ER this morning because my gallbladder is very angry.  I got very little sleep last night.  It seems to be trying to kill me.  The magic stuff in the i.v. drip they gave me was pretty awesome.  I could not believe how quickly it worked.  I am at home and on Vicodin now.  This is a good time.  Kathryn has a concert tonight so I am waiting to take my next dose until I need it so that I can make it through the concert. 

When they did the CAT scan, they found cysts on my ovaries. So Monday, I am in for ultrasounds on my ovaries and gallbladder.  I can't eat after midnight on Sunday night and the ultasound isn't until 12:30.  That will be a good time.

I did take a picture last night, but I haven't been up for posting it yet.  Activity is limited to as long as I can handle it and to gentle activity.
