She's officially on my list.

I have a great deal of experience with infections in the decending colon. Diverticulitis led to a bowel resection in 2000. Lost 18" of it.

One of the main antibiotics they like to use is Cipro. The FDA just released a warning on its use and possible damage to tendons leading to rupture. Keep an eye out for inflamation.

If I can be of any help please call me...

to both of you.

Hope you managed to get her sprung, Bill. I'm not a big fan of hospitals.

If she does have to have surgery--my middle brother had a bowel resection for diverticulitis about four or five years ago. Bit of recovery time involved, but he's doing much, much better since.

Send Pat our very best wishes--and keep some for yourself.

She's doing a little better today. When I went to see her around 8:00 this morning, she said she hadn't hit the demerol button since about 3:00 this morning. Doc says tomorrow will be the earliest she can go home, most likely Friday. Won't know about surgery for awhile - until the infection is completely cleared and things settle down. Then she'll have to do the "colonostopy" thing (I say that because we have both a neighbor and a relative who call it a "colonostopy," and they don't even know each other. It's kind of a joke between us).

I think it's the clear liquid diet that has her the most miffed. Once she agreed yesterday to be admitted, THEN the doc told her "nothing to eat or drink." When he walked into her room, she said to him (in front of the nurse, too), "YOU are on my shitlist. This is a total bait and switch job." That's when he let her have clear liquids. Grin

Update: Pat's home. Still kind of weak, restricted to the BRAT diet at least until she sees her doc on Friday. The one thing that pushed her doc to agree to release her early was that she had not hit the pain med button since 2:00 this morning.

Glad to be home and ready to get better. She told me to thank every one of you for your kind words and thoughts.
