AWw thanks for asking Puds friend. I feel better, and then its back, and then its better, and its back. My coughing is down to a dull roar, and I am hoping as it goes away, that will help my tummy calm down.

No word from the hospital folks. Last I heard was there were several of them combing over the scans, and hang in there. I was reminded if I couldnt take it anymore, I could go to the ER, and the surgeon on call would see me night or day. To be honest, I am hoping to avoid any surgery. I would prefer to handle this will rest or something.

Will have to wait at least the weekend to hear "official" word of what even more folks think this is. till then, I am in the very slow lane.
