Sorry I have not written in awhile. I was in the hospital for a surgical procedure and unfortunately, there were some complications. I'm out of the hospital now and I'm on the mend. The healing process will no doubt be slow, but with a little bit of luck, I should be back to my old self fairly soon. I look forward to reading and contributing information to this forum in the future...

Your Friend,
NIMHmaniac :D

How did you end up in the Hospital NIMHmaniac? Was it some kind of infection inside you? At least you are okay!

You could say that it was something like that. During my stay in the hospital, I picked up a particularly nasty little bacterial infection that affected the healing of the wound that was made during the initial procedure. I attribute this to improper care taken during the handling of the wound durng dressing changes (failure to properly wash one's hands). At one point I actually witnessed a nurse with a hole in her glove manipulate the dressing on the wound. I just wish I had said something sooner but I guess I was still somewhat out of it due to the painkillers and anesthesia I was given. I just hope that if any of you have to do a stint in the hospital, you do not go through what I did.

Peace :D

Thank You :D

Not too bad. There is some tenderness at the immediate area, but nothing too serious. Like I said before, the healing process will be slow, but with time, I should be back to normal in short order.

Peace :D

The original surgery was for a painful intestinal blockage. Believe me when I say that the kind of pain I endured was something that I would not wish on my worst enemy.

Peace :D
