This sucks Pat, hope they get you fixed up ASAP. Sounds like you'll be down there until it comes out? That'll be a painful flight otherwise. Get well soon dude!
 
Dr said I get at least one more night of luxury hospital stay. IV is coming out, and back to regular food.

The view out the window is beach row hotels.

Update. Next dr in says the IV stays, and so does the liquid food. 🙁

Here is the icon on the screen on my door.

and the winner is: Salmonella!

that is right, good old fashion food poisoning - which is either coincidental or the cause of the abscess, which will hospitalize me for 5 or more days.

in the end - i should have remembered what @Arwen's Mom went through with Mr. Mom - When something really wasn't right, go right to the hospital.

my cream of mushroom soup and vanilla pudding were wonderful tonight. thank you very much.
 
so - i stayed on soft food - not liquid - didn't work out so well - the drain line is somewhat interfering with the system down there,
and it will have to wait. i don't need do detach a retina going to the bathroom.

so some other excitement - they cleaned the window - he did a crappy job. No scaffolding, just a nice seat.

i feel better now.😉

and as a bonus, they found e. coli and pseudomonas in there too!
a food poisoning trifecta.

And I'm outta the hospital! Two weeks of drugs. And a month of taking it easy.
No alcohol !!
Just saw this, Pat. I'm glad to hear that you're out of the hospital and back on your feet. Hope the recovery goes smoothly and as expected -- the javelin throwers need you!
