Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Back in the ER

That sucks Hookeye, hope you get to feeling better and can get some hunting in.

You have very nice hands!

2 months ain't schit bud, I did it for 2 years due to Meds I was on.

Fat is the culprit. I found if I did small amounts of fat I could get away with it probably because small amounts of fat didn't make the stones move.

Take a look at Campbell Soups, they have a lowfat line keep it under 3 grams in one sitting and hopefully that will do it for you. Also take a look at various Beef Jerky's some are very low in fat. read everything you eat for fat content, everything!

if you can't do small amounts of fat your in for a tasteless 2 months.

Ive battled it since 98 off and on.
Been smooth sailing for a while once i changed jobs and had normal work hours.

Hit me a month ago and been a bit fugged up since but got the whammy yesterday.

Had upper and lowr GI stuff done way back, of course no problem found

No stones according to scan yesterday

Thats what the women in the lab used to say LOL.
I got a job change and beat the crap outta them, last 10 yrs.
Work on vehicles without gloves.

Am part Mediterranean so got enough oil to make em look OK no matter what abuse they take. After 40 yrs of shooting though, proly sweat Remoil LOL

The ol lady always grabbing my hands, say theyre so soft..... pisses her off as she knows I beat the hell out of em. And they stay soft

Great kid.

That's a good outcome.

I hear they can be really painful.

Good luck on your healing.

Thanks.

This was damn near like having a swollen appendix again, but the pain not stabbing or even pulsing...just slowly got worse and never let up.

Wore my sissy ass out LOL.

Am off rest of week. See if I heal up to dove hunt Sat.

I had a bad gall bladder with no stones. They were convinced gall bladder was fine due to no stones. Finally got a HIDA scan and flunked. Surgery was no biggie, and no issues since.

The ol lady making lasagna
It aint bad either. Smells.good.
Its chicken noodle.soup.for.me.

I tried to play for bewbies and was denied.
Im.hurting, not dead damnit.

Yeah, mom.n dad had theirs out at age 50. Im 57.
Just trying to baby it til after gun season.

As for.major attacks, last one was in 99. Had to crawl to.my truck ( was out hunting ). Moderate ones off and on, good run of none....til yesterday.

I gave up dtinking Moutain Dew green after that 99 episode. Was working a lot of hours...

Eating crap, chugging caffeine, double shifts and high stress the norm. Had me all fugged up.

That and being in a clean room. I turned down a couple jobs in other clean rooms after I got out. Mucho bettero health.

That reminds me of that adage:

"A bad day afield beats a good day at work".

Heal up brother.

Got coworker coming by to pick up some steel.dove loads.
Dunno if Ill get out.

Am exhausted but tummy isnt acting up.
Ditch this fuggin headache and be fine.

Prayers for your health.

And also for the poor nurses.

I had an attack of severe abdominal pain about three years ago, thought maybe it was appendicitis at first, but then though about it some more---wrong side. wondered where the gall bladder was...everything that goes wrong seems to be on the right side but pain was on the left. Got so bad I spent two days living/dying in my recliner and would go into hyperventilation mode a couple of times each hour. I was pretty sure I was passing a kidney stone. Wife finally insisted on a trip to one of the doc-in-the-box emergency rooms and they did a cat scan or something.

Doc comes back to me a few minutes later and says "No kidney stones. I think your constipated."

"No schidt?"

"Yup, no schidt. Go home and get some magnesium citrate down your gullet."

I did, and it (along with about an hour occupying the porcelain throne) fixed me right up. Until I got relief I'd have never believed the doc.

I was afraid to eat anything at all for the next 36 hours.

Hang in there, I wish you the best.

Took a fat dump that morning.
None after and no farting.
Normally a fartin dude but since appendix out last yr I'm a minor league ass ripper. Used to be an All Star.

No farting yesterday. Toradol.killed all pain and sensations
Around 2 i started letting em rip, no big boomers but not little ones. About 12 total and tummy is normal sized.

No stomach upset at this time.

Might be a good night

Doc said the gurgling was a sign i wasn't t stopped up.
Buddy had his colon rupture.

Kinda have that worry in back of my head.
He waited and it fugged him up for a long while.
Quite the repair.

Don't worry about gall bladder surgery...had several painful episodes...each seemed to follow a long shift at the Bexar County Jail...thought I wasn't drinking enough water, after the last one I had my ex-wife come home at lunch, and take me to the Doc in the Box...as soon as she left the room I asked the Doc if I had a bruise on my lower back from her hitting me with a 2X4...he assured me no bruise...tests and he referred me to a surgeon to remove my gallbladder the following week, ambulatory surgical center...there at noon, back home at 3PM...'scope surgery...3 little incisions, "LIGHTS...CAMERA...ACTION"(just below the bottom rib) no sutures for those, just butterflies..3 sutures at my belly button...gallbladder was about the size of a small zippered bank bag...had to crush some of the pearls to drag it out the bellybutton incision...went to work the next day, Special Agent US INS...
