There was no post yesterday because I spent the entire day in bed with back pain. Today John and I went to the hospital ER again. A nice man named Ernie who is on his boat here at Ladies Island Marina, gave us a ride to the hospital. We got there at 9:30 and left there at 3:30. It was basically the same drill as the last time. CT Scan, X-ray, and IV drugs for the sciatica. This time the CT Scan showed a kidney stone as well. What's up with that? The last time it was a calcified gallbladder with gall stones. Even the doctors couldn't get over that. Well, we are back on the boat, and just waiting until I am physically able to do my job as first mate. One day at a time.
