The Update
My Doctor called me at work last night. He called me from home. (he's definitely rare for a doc. Totally good guy)
Anyway ... I still don't know what the actual treatment plan is going to be, but I have my suspicions. I'm being referred to the "King of Laparascopic Surgery." I'll see him next week. I do understand that you often get a cool video of your surgery as a bonus. My boss has already told me I have to make sure I ask for it. I understand that most people watch their surgery videos more often than their wedding videos.
I think it's very nice of doctors to give you a videotape that they may see later in court during a malpractice suit. No clue who came up with THAT idea.
In the meantime the acute attack seems to have died down for the most part ... I'm not eating normally by any means, but I ventured forth beyond the confines of the dry chicken sandwich and survived tonight. I may even be brave enough to attempt something like Cheetos tomorrow. (this is a bigger struggle than you might imagine. It's not the snack food aspect of the Cheetos that I yearn for ... I'm cool with eating a pretzel or a carrot if I'm looking for CRUNCH-factor, but Cheetos are my big-time ever since childhood comfort food. I'm not feeling good. I'm NOT puking, so I need cheetos!)
