mousebox The Bellevue Guy .. an Ontarian in Newfie Land, retired.
I have been gone for a while October 25, 2010 @ 02:22:56 pm
I ended up in an acute care ward in the St John\'s Hospital where they drained 7 litres of infected water from around my organs in my midrift area. Apparently, I got a liver infection, that caused it to malfunction and produce water. My feet and legs bloated up and my stomach bulged out. It was not a pleasant time. I am now on the mend, but have to take an anti-biotic for the rest of my life, to prevent it from happening again.
They say my liver will recover somewhat, but not for many years.
Anyway.. that\'s why I haven\'t been on for a while.

Keep resting and hope it will get easier to deal with in time.
