Well, after a 4 day stay in the hospital, the docs pretty much can't fix what's wrong. I'm having bleeding from the colon that is a result of my peripheral vascular disease. It seems that some organs are "protected" more from a depleted oxygenated blood supply, and don't become affected by it as quickly as other parts of the body (like my legs and heart did already).

The math sounds all wrong, but the doc says if there's less blood to the colon -- it bleeds. But, 9 out of 10 times, it will heal itself, and the one in 10 where it doesn't -- then they look at surgical options.

So, with some bedrest, a fluid diet, and some antibiotics (just in case) I seem to be on the 9 out of 10 list and my situation seems to be fixing itself. "And if it happens again?" you ask ... Well, if it's a little bleeding, do a "wait and see" if it corrects itself, but if it's a lot ... then they'll be expecting me back at the ER.

I appreciate all the phone calls and online best wishes ... you guys are da best!!


Mucho love and hugs

Glad you are out of the hospital regardless of what caused the bleeding.
Hope you are feeling better.
