Today Was Different

Today I found that my first protein drink of the day was not going down quite as quickly, so I packed it in my briefcase and headed of to school. By 7:30 the pain was starting to get intense and by 7:50 what little protein I had taken in was back up and out. The pain continued to ramp up; my wife took me to the hospital, but not before I had redecorated the floor mat in the Buick. (Where did this all come from if I only had 2 1/2 ounces?) I demonstrated my condition yet again in front of the nurse, who was amazingly quick with the tray. After this fourth "fountain of intestinal fortitude" I started to notice that the pain was subsiding.

It appears that I may have an ulcer, or stricture, or both. I have to try medicine tomorrow, if I can get our Canadian doctor to write a prescription really quickly. If things don't improve, then I am off to Ypsilanti for Friday.

Sorry to "bring this up". Hope you weren't eating or anything...
