intense. I am glad that it sounds like your spirits are up! I hope this one works.
i get dismissed tomorrow morning at 6:15 a.m., as long as i'm doing fine.
the pathology report says that i have moderate inflammation at the ileal-colic anastomosis. so the high-grade stricture in my distal ileum was caused by inflammatory crohn's disease, not by adhesions or other post-operative complications.
i better take some pictures of my room and such before i leave tomorrow morning!

How ya feeling?
I have a good friend with Crohn's. They gave him a bag of liquid hydrocodone because of his extremely high tolerance. He tested positive for THC a few weeks later and the doctors refused to prescribe him anything else. So, yeah, he did heroin to alleviate the flare-ups he'd been having, about 5 in a 6 month period.
So ... point of the story is, don't do heroin. I guess.

Or keep smoking weed.
damn, but hopefully this should put an end to the current (last three months) inflammation?
