Damn Tred, you can't get a break. My biggest fear was my boil would drain into my ass. I wasn't so much worried about the stuff coming out that way, but other stuff going into it if you know what I mean.

Well so far it was only that one time and just a small amount. I haven't had any other interactions yet. Got my fingers crossed.

Oh and I feel an ear infection coming on and I've definitely got a cavity fucking with my when I drink or eat something cold. Gonna get the ear thing taken care of later today and just scheduled an appointment with the dentist for Friday. When are cyborg bodies going to be available? I'd like to sign up to be an alpha tester. lol

Well I definitely have something going on with my tooth because cold water sends me through the ceiling practically. I had my ear checked and there's no sign of infection, yet. Keep getting twinges of pain in it though.

And sometimes jaw problems can mimic an ear infection.

It can be hard to self-locate a somewhat deep pain sometimes, especially when it's in your head. I had a sinus infection once and, not that it matters much, but it felt like it was in a different sinus than it was. The brain can be a contrary thing.

Just spent the day in the ER. Meh.

I woke up this morning not feeling right, and found out I was in Atrial Tachycardia and the top part of my heart was beating twice as fast as the bottom (ventricals). Felt like shit, but they cardioverted me around 4:30 today, and I was home by 7 feeling pretty decent, but way better than earlier today.

What is most troublesome is that they couldn't really pinpoint the cause of it.

Possibly. Find out tomorrow. Although haven't had any other incidents of drainage since that first one. fingers crossed

Well it certainly isn't going to be good news but the doc I saw today couldn't really do much for me. His specialty is colon/duodenum stuff but he has seen stuff like this before in years past. Basically he feels that each spot that I had a drainage done, 3 total, has channels still since each one should a small amount of drainage when he examined me. He wasn't sure if it'd be a long term antibiotic regimen or if they would go in and clean me out. The latter scares the shit out of me because I know that is going to be a LONG recovery. I'm done fucking around with it and will be calling my doctors at Dana Farber tomorrow to try and get something set up. I'm not too concerned about it getting resolved, just the road to get there. Fuckkkkkkkk.

Long term antibiotic therapy? Sounds like C. diff is coming to a theatre near you! (Hope you get better for real)

I dunno we'll see. I haven't had a fever or anything so fingers crossed it stays that way. I really don't want to deal with a nasty fucking infection. ugh

Looking at the general list of C.Diff symptoms I have had none of them so far. And a couple weeks ago I had my yearly upper and lower scope tests done and everything looked fine beyond the two polyps my doc found which is normal for me.

I was scoped like 3 weeks ago. Down the throat and up the ass. I'm in good shape for another year. I go yearly. A little more detail since I have no colon and I have a J-pouch. I do not have a colostomy or anything like that.

From what the doc yesterday told me worst case scenario is I'll need an ileum. Which terrifies me on one hand but on the other I think would be an improvement over going to the bathroom 8-10+ times a day on a bad day, 4-6 is normal by comparison. The irritation and pain is real as fuck. But I hope I'm just getting ahead of myself on that.
