I haven't been on the hog for awhile. I had a belly ache and ended up in the hospital. Been here for a little over 6 weeks. I had pancreatitis. Wow, I would not wish this on my worst enemy. They almost lost me a couple of times the first few days. They may put a stint in the duct tomorrow. I'm feeling pretty good now.

Any way, I'm back (I hope).

Pleased you are feeling better. I had that a few years ago and as you say, “you wouldn’t wish it on your worst enemy”.
Speedy recovery Frank.

Myself never, DW twice. Last time 11 days ICU while on a trip. Agree, I would not wish it on anybody.

Wow! Glad you're okay now. Hospitals are no fun. I've been lost in them several times.

Yes, I,m glad for you. I suffered pancreatitis about 35 years ago; I think it was brought about by drinking some foreign unpasteurized beer.

Good you're doing better and I hope you have insurance! I did end up in the hospital again a month ago. I was getting pretty bad again and ended up in the local hospital. There, they couldn't get my vital signs back running, so they airlifted me right out of here to the ICU in Kootenai, were I spent some time. Now I'm back home for a while and also got my bill for that little trip, a little over $70,000.00. Man I'm already so far in debt, I will never be able to pay that off ( I do not have insurance)!

Good for you. I know how painful it can be.

Thanks guys. It has been a rough road, but I will pull through. Finally got to eat solid food today....

I do have great insurance....it will cover 80%of my bill, 90%off part of it.... depending on my out of pocket already, it could cover it all....... I'm hoping for the latter.
