Update from the potato pie

I was in the hospital last week due to a UTI that went septic and had to go back again this week due to a severe arthritis flair up and subsequent overdose of ibuprofen and Tylenol. It caused GI bleeding and infection in the colon, kidney and liver function. They gave me antidotes via IV for three days. I was released early this morning. I’m currently on alot of meds right now including steroids and oxy. Steroids and opioids always mess with me mentally.

I’m doing a lot of file clean up today to catch up. I’m working my best to be around here, though because I very much enjoy knowing how you are doing. You can tag me if you need anything.

Thank you for the advice @Fisherman1992 your message needs to be heard. The doctors figured the need outweighs the risk. I have a limited supply and they gave me narcan too, in case of emergency. The steroids are helping out a lot so my need for pain medicine is not that terrible.

I avoid tylonel for that reason. Super toxic to the liver.
