What a week this has been! A trip to the ER and 4 days in the hospital (where I gained a true appreciation for morphine). My GI problem includes (but is not limited to) a closed bile duct. I had an ERCP on Wednesday for a temporary stent but have to go to the big medical center hospital later where a robot will place the permanent stent--> I can't tell you how much I am looking forward to that... On the other hand, with enough morphine, it may not be so bad after all.
I am feeling better but I feel like I have been beaten up. Who would have thought that 4 1/2 days in bed would leave one exhausted??

Wow, Florence. I'm sorry to hear about your medical problems. Doesn't morphine put you to sleep? I do know that I've called Percocent, my "happy pills" upon occasion. Here's hoping you don't need the pharmaceutic happiness for long.
Thank you Grace. I am feeling better but my get up & go has got up & went. While I was in the hospital, I found that morphine distanced me from the pain enough that I could rest or sleep. I'm not on any pain meds now. Some pep pills would be nice though!!
Feel better and get well, Florence. We need you!
Thanks Morrison. I am getting a little better each day but I sure don't bounce back like I once did!
