Hello friends.

I went to Dr. Misra in the morning and he sent me to Saint Luke's in
the afternoon. While I was there a Dr. Smally stuck a catheter through
the side of my abdomen and drained out over eighteen pounds of liquid.
That was a tremendous help.

I am sore today, but I guess that is to be expected. The water is
still in my scrotum and my penis but they say that will drain out in
time all by itself. I do feel a lot better even though we don't know
where the water came from.

I will go back in Monday for an ultrasound of my liver.

There really isn't anything else to report at this time. As soon as I
find out more I will forward to you all.

Take care and be well.

Good grief! Here's hoping they find the cause before you need that
again! Glad you're feeling better - bet you're floating on air!

Not quite Nicky. I am still sore from the procedure. OTOH, I am
feeling a lot better than I did.
