Geeze Dave, I believe my instructions to you were REST, RELAX, SIP and walk. I don't think I said contract your bhronchitis and end up in the hospital because your PCP is an ignoramous! LOL!!! Seriously though, glad to hear they figured out what it was, and were able to treat it quickly, without too much trouble! Now...when you are sick...stay the HECK HOME!!! Sheese, watch that water intake...sip,sip, sip!!! Don't worry me now...I need you for my comic relief!! Good Greif!

Dave~I am glad your doing better.

Why do PCP's drag their feet....I wish my GBP DR.could be my everything DR.
I feel like we become more intune with our bodies after surgery and I personally feel blown off at times with my PCP.They say your fine and then you call your surgon and they meet you at the ER as your being ADMITTED!!!!

Dave,I love ya man,Glad your home and feeling better

That was a rough go Dave...I hope you are feeling better soon. Good for you for listening to your own body and getting the help you needed. Being dehydrated is not a fun feeling. Take Care.

Dave:
I hope you're feeling better! Sounds like you have been on quite the health trip right now.

ANOTHER story for people who are even considering this surgery to think about - IN NO WAY is this surgery the "easy" way out. I overheard a guy at work talking about someone who had GBS a couple of years ago - he called it "the easy way out" - I wanted to DECK him......I took the high road and walked away (but he's little - I could have TOTALLY taken him!)

Feel better "NoSoBigDAVE"!!!!
