Posting this from the ICU (srs)....

Went to ER Friday morning at 1am after 8 hours of severe stomach bloat, cramping, and pain radiating to my entire back. 9/10 level pain, constant for the entire time.

CT showed stomach distended/overfull with fluid, which appeared to probably be leaking slowly into my abdomen.

Blood work otherwise normal, they suspect either a perforated small ulcer or possibly a diverticulum causing the problem.

Admitted to hospital about 10 hours after arriving in ER (took even longer for an ICU room to become available).

Haven’t consumed liquids or food in 33 hours, confined to a bed. I have an NG tube running to my stomach through my nose pumping out acid to prevent further leakage into my gut.

Quite a way to start 2021...

Hopefully the recovery from whatever the path forward is won’t be too crazy... but at the moment, man this is killin my mood. Especially knowing I can’t eat for at least a another day...

Please send sandwiches...
