Good morning. Well I guess that's open to debate. It's 73° and mostly cloudy. The high will be 88° and partly cloudy with a 20% chance of showers and thunderstorms.
Well last night I got the bleeding problem with my foot taken care of but another problem cropped up. My diverticulitis has flared up again and my chances of getting a good nights sleep went down the crapper quite literally. More than half the night was spent on the throne and I got no sleep whatsoever. In most cases people with this have pain and swelling on the right side of the colon, some have it on the left side. I'm one of the unfortunate few who has it on BOTH sides. I have to take medication for it every day, not just when it flares up. The meds are supposed to limit the severity of it. Much of today will be spent not far from the bathroom. In addition to the loose stool it also causes lots of gas and bloating. I really hate it. If it follows it's usual course in a few days I'll probably be constipated. So the regimen for today is going to be drinking lots of water as I'm already somewhat dehydrated. I'm nauseous but haven't had any vomiting. I rarely do in these cases. That's probably the rest of the week ruined but maybe I'll get lucky and it'll pass in a couple of days. No layout work today obviously. I hope I don't have to go anywhere.
