The doctors were checking for my now Hbp and intense Acid reflux ! On the second admission the Doctor gave all the Drips, blood work and sent me home to manage ? Luckily it left …
“However … after the movie, I knew there will be No talks with Denzel or Ridley Scott today. I needed to go! I threw up all Night till there was Nothing to throw up anymore. By Morning the Most Dilapidating Stomach pain started and so l was rushed Again to Emergency… the Third time ! This time, I was wheeled in, straight for a CT scan, Ultrasound and the MRI. Then the Doctor came in and said you have to go in immediately for Surgery! … to Remove your Ball-gladder!!! It was so Dilated, the Doctors wandered how I was not in more pain. More pain???!
