in hospital

I'm in the hospital OSF st jo in bloomington, the catheter they put in at ST james didn't work from the moment I left there. Went back the next day. tehy found out there was some brick wall up in there that was blocking it and that it actually wasn't in the bladder in the first place. They sent me down here, where urologist tried to clear block but couldn't, my urethra is simply to diseased and in such bad shape. I have two choices, wear a pubical catheter for the rest of my life or have major surgery that few people do. I would have to go to a big city for that.

the hospital tv's have a kind of webtv thing that's letting me post to blogger but mHB is blocked. So if any mHBers see this, let everyone know, okay.

I don't know how long I'm going to be here, turns out the UTI that st james thought I had was wrong, it was a different one that needed a different antibiotic.. I also found out my potassium level is a little low, just like mom's. I feel like crappe, sore, because of what the urologist tried to do to my penis something leaked into my scrotum and it's swollen and hurts like heck to touch. sitting up is uncomfortable for long periods but I can do it though it tends to make the swelling worse. They were worried about my blood pressur at first because it was high, but it returned to what is normal for me, which is a little low once I got calmed down and more comfortable. They also were worried about my blood sugar but that's been normal except for the first time they tested.


Wishing mHB the best.
