Hi Gang
I am having more trouble,I got a pain in my left side like apendsitis,but they are on the right side.

Could be diverticulitis,doc put me on cipro and flagyl for diverticulitis. Now I got lyme circular rashes,they are running from the ABX.

I am to have a CAT scan tomorrow of my belly.

Wow I new if I didn't stop eating cats they would scan me for them some day,EEK!!!

Hi Gang
The cat scan found severe diverticulitis.

So far the oral meds are working,this is rare.

Normally diverticulitis this bad requires hospitalization and IV ABX..

Hey hey Maddog...

I'd have wished you well sooner, but I've been running in circles chasing my tail.

[lol]

Sorry to hear about the pain. And please do NOT follow the advise to have a liquid diet only. Drinking out of the toilet bowl like you usually do would probably not help your situation!

Feel better my friend.

Hey mabe it is a hairball stuck in there.a cat hairball. HE HE HE

Well I didn't know that was a toilet I thought it was a water fountain,that could wash my hair allso.

Actually gang
I am a lot better except now the herxes are kicking in.
Most noteable is a arithma migrane rash on my leg.The rash is blood red and biger than a quarter. A mean looking painful little rash it is.

I showed it to my doctor and took picks. of it.
