Muriel Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 I do apologise, but I went to the ER on Sun. afternoon and just got out this afternoon. Nothing serious, but certainly scary. Diverticulitis. Try to avoid it! Ry, I don't think this deserves a fine Muriel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ry Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Oh I guess since it was the ER we can let you slide on the fine. Sorry to hear about the diverticulitis, my dad had that so I know how bad those attacks can be. I hope you're feeling better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debi Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Jeesh Muriel, that's a long time to spend in the ER for crying out loud. I'm thinking that Ry shouldn't fine you for being AWOL but I do think you deserve a fine for getting some strange malady that I had to google. Seriously, am glad you are back with us and that all is okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.C. Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Hope you are feeling better and that you will keep away from any more attack. Welcome back Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muriel Posted July 1, 2007 Author Share Posted July 1, 2007 So sorry that you had to "google" it, Debi. So did I when I got home. We went to the hospital that "guarentees (sp?) that you'll be seen within 60 min. Amazingly, that did happen. However, after CT scans, etc. it was another 12 hours before being admitted. Con left at 2 am, after we got the scan results and Dx. I'm still enjoying my "soft" diet. BTW, had we gone to Chicago last weekend, we would have planned to return on Monday. So I would have spent a week at Northwestern Memorial - a better hospsital than we have here. Muriel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendy Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Ouch, ouch, ouch! My husband has dealt with this too..... Ouch! Welcome back, Wendy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debi Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Muriel, That's the first thing I thought of - that if you had gone to Chicago, it would have happened then!! Oh well, everything happens for a reason I suppose- even though the hospital might have been better up north, you would have had that long drive back looming in front of you. Either way, glad that you are out of the woods. And hey, we started off Googling together, no reason to stop now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maryanne Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Hi Muriel I am glad you are feeling better. My mom had that and thank G-d only had one attack. She had to stay away from nuts and anything with seeds even popcorn that she loved. Glad you are on the mend. Maryanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
