Quick update...

Just wanted to let everyone know that I still don't know my surgery date. I saw two GIs today who both said they didn't know and couldn't really guess, but one said I'd probably find out first thing in the morning before any doctors visit when they don't give me breakfast. That had me all excited this morning actually, since i didn't get food for brekkie, but it turned out they just mixed up a tray- here I was thinking I was NPO for surgery! (NPO= non par ora or something... nothing by the mouth)

The one bright spot is that if I have to wait over the weekend, I found out I have a standing doctor's order for day passes, so I actually can leave the hospital anytime, I just have to let the nurses know ahead of time, and be back for meds. If i have to wait more than 5 days, they may switch me to oral antibiotics too, which means I'll only get IV meds twice a day rather than 4 times, so more free time to leave, as I can take my oral ones with me!

Anyway I'd better be nice and share the interwebs, there's a lineup! Keep checking for updates!
