I am in an ER room now, but they said they are admitting me to run tests. Most likely liver failure. I've already got needles sticking out of both arms ready for more blood to be drawn and an IV. Applying for financial assistance. It just sucks that I've always been the healthy one and taking care of everyone else and now I'll probably end up with bedsores. Oh well, I'll request a sponge bath from every cute nurse!

Keep us posted. Hopefully they find something easily treatable!

Get well soon!

Living in another country, why do you need to apply for financial assistance?

Gave blood and urine then a cat scan and a MRI. Then an ultrasound and had 3 titres of fluid drained from my stomach. As well as x-rays and different IVs. hopefully I can leave tomorrow.
Thanks for the thoughts,
Rick
