I had meant to post another couple entries here about how things have been going, but I've been fairly busy and things have been going pretty smooth so it just kept slipping my mind. Nights are still a challenge and that's making me tired during the day, but otherwise can't really complain. I'm still restricting my diet quite a bit in an effort to minimize the turbulence, but hopefully that will become less of an issue very soon.
In fact, things have come along so far that I decided it was time to get back to work, so yesterday was my first day back. I didn't feel like I had missed much until I got back there yesterday and it all started sinking in. There is so much stuff I need to get up to speed on now... I definitely feel out of the loop.
Anyway, that's pretty much it for now. I'm off to work.

I finally decided to start this blog on the advice from a friend. If you're just tuning in, you should START HERE, with the latest diagnosis.
Also, as anybody with a serious medical problem knows, medical insurance is not all it's cracked up to be. Just the co-pays can stack up to a large sum of money, and medical insurance rarely covers 100% of procedures that often run $100K or more. If you find any of this blog useful, I encourage you to link to this site. If you find it really useful or want to help, consider throwing me a buck. I've definitely spent more time writing about my personal life than the girl at the coffee shop spent making your latte'.

Oh yeah and welcome back!
Jim: My brother (also Jim) who is a T-10 paraplegic with a j-pouch is probably moving to Chico soon. He's concerned about having a knowledgeable physician. Do you get care locally or do you have to go to SF or Sacto?
Any advice is appreciated. My email is rnarad@csuchico.edu.
Thanks.
