    Well I'm home boys and girls and the first thing I want to say is, I'm no **** and but the out pouring of love from you folks had me in tears. Y'all are the best.

    Secondly as Jim Morrison once said, " I am stoned immaculate." Whoa baby is that Dilaudid some strong stuff. 4mg every two hours even in this 270 lb body has me swaying in the breeze.

    Third. . .my friends whatever you do in life DO NOT get acute pancreatitis. It is by far the most painful thing I've ever encountered in my my life not to mention the devastation it wreaks on your organs; triglycerides 2800 (norm 150), blood sugar 600 + (norm 72), cholesteral 1500 (norm 150) etc. I had it is six years ago and from drinking too much you usually get it from drinking excessively or doing to many drugs.

    I haven't done a drug or had a drink in over 5 1/2 years so the docs are perplexed.

    DID I MENTION THE PAIN? My cousin gave birth to two children and has has several bouts of acute pancreatitis . . . she said that child birth was less painfull.

    I have a long road to recover. I have to take like ten different medications along with several shots and orals of insulin to try to get my numbers back to normal.

    The thinking here is that one of my psych drugs is known in some cases to cause pancreatitis and or diabetes. My doc was getting ready to wean me off when BAM this happened.

    Well I am fortunate. With numbers I was showing I'm lucky I didn't have a stroke or heart attack.

    BY THE WAY DID I MENTION THE PAIN!!

    Thanks again for all the kind words folks. Phyllisann and I really appreciate it.

    Hang in there Joe. It ain't over 'till the fat lady sings. It's good to hear from you again and if it's a pain to post, DON'T. ;)

    Get better first.

    But, when you are all drugged up and feelin' frisky with no pain.......post away. THAT should be a hoot! :D
