Lisa, after 28 hours of abdominal pain, was finally pursuaded to go to a hospital.

They think she has a urinary track infection, but want to run a CAT scan to check for apendicitis anyway. Should be in here for 5-6 more hours while they run tests. (unless she has apendicits, in which case...longer)

In the meanwhile, am here keeping her company, rather than at the con singing. Not so happy, but we have Heroes to watch and I have an APA to hack. Meanwile, Lisa's working on her barium milkshake. Yum. Barium. (berry flavored, at least; Lisa says it's not as bad as she expected).

(feel free to pass this on to Barry, of course).

Sorry. I think it's that we are not all that rational when in pain, plus I did call the doctor. I just described it as "muscle pain", which was what I'd thought, and said, "Can I come in next week?" which so doesn't signal urgency to an overworked doctor.

(emits sympathy vibes) I'm sorry to feel she is feeling so unwell.

Please pass on my wishes for a very speedy recovery, Joshua.

Thanks. Still don't know what it was or if it'll hit again, but currently doing better.

Patches and I send good vibes your way.

I'm glad you got her to get some attention.
I don't know if you saw me at my brief appearances at last Contata, but I was sick as a dog, and I'm really glad I got to the Dr on Monday for it.

Some of these things fix themselves, but some don't.
Getting professional intervention is the right thing to do here.

Good luck, and see you at Pennsic. (he said with cocky optimism)

Send her my best wishes, including that the recovery from the procedures themselves, not be particularly achy.

Thanks. The procedures / tests weren't bad.
They even flavored the barium so tasted okay.

But, I won't be stupid about it.

*hugs* Hope all is easily taken care of and she recovers quickly.
The berry flavor is the best of what could otherwise be real yucky. Seems she is with good people.
