Has had me in the hospital since Monday night. Brother, that hurt. No sooner do I get the shoulder about healed, and this happens. Not having much fun lately.

I’d have said something about something recently, but my tail was dragging.

Cross your fingers for me. Prayers not needed.

. Hear that can be a booger. Keep your chin up.

Fingers crossed.

Toe's too

My wife had that after her semiannual EUS last year. Damn near killed her. Hope you get better soon.

Good luck to you.

I’m doing Ok. Wife just called to say there’s a dead doe behind the barn. Really stinking. She doesn’t want to handle that. Tuff…

Dang. Could of gone all day without hearing this. I don’t know anything about it but best of luck. Hang in there.

Hope you mend quick

Well I don’t care what you say, I’m gonna say a little prayer for you.

Good luck 603.

I’ve known people who had that. Very painful.

Hope you feel better soon.

Dang! hope you get out of there soon and get well soon! praying for ya

My uncle had a pancreatitis attack several years ago, he said worst pain he's ever been in.

Yes, big pain. Real big pain. You don’t want this. Really slow to heal, unfortunately, so, they say.

I’m too weak to pull a sick hooker off a pay toilet…

You have had your share recently.

Yank that thing out. Speedy recovery.

Noooooo, you need that thing. Wife had part of hers removed a few months ago, not fun.

Praying for you sir. Hope ya get to feeling better, hunting season is on the way.

Lol, my God what was I thinking! Appendix.....

No,...... you have a tube up your nose and aren't allowed to eat much? That stuff sucks you just have to wait it out.....

Yup....you need that thing! I lost my mom to pancreatic cancer when she was only 55.....

Hope yours doesn’t go that route

Damn sorry to hear that.

I turned 56 this year.....sobering

My wife is 53. 4-5 years ago they discovered a cyst on her pancreas. Location was too dangerous to remove so they had her scoped every 6 months. Thing never grew until her last scope in Dec where it doubled in size. Decision was made to remove it fearing Cancer. 4hr operation. Removed her gallbladder and a third of the pancreas. Hospital for 5 days. Home for 4 days when she sprang a leak and got an infection. Emergency room and 10 more days in the ICU. Came home to 2 months of IV bag feeding. Nothing by mouth except water. She started at around 120lbs and got below 100 before she could eat real food again. She's fully healed now with only a zipper looking scar running the length of her belly. Oh, and on insulin now too. Very scary time for us both.

You have a gallstone stuck in your common bile duct. It is blocking the flow of bile causing pancreatitis.

You need a good Gastroenterologist (GI).

If the GI doc says you need your gallbladder out, you will go to a surgeon.

If you do it under a non emergent surgery, you can have it done laparoscopically and go home same day. 3 small holes that heal pretty fast.

If you delay it, you may get it done open. Three small holes, as they try it laparoscopically, and if that does not work, you get an open incision and it sucks. You will be in the hospital for a 5-7 days.

If your surgery is done emergently, you do not pick the surgeon.

If you schedule it and do it before you have another stone, you get to pick your surgeon. Picking your surgeon is a good thing.
