On early Monday morning, I was in the hospital with sepsis again. So I had a three day vacation at Piedmont Hospital, being released Wednesday evening.

The attending liver doc was pretty sure the infection was liver-related.

One thing interesting was that one of the IVs I was on was Vancomycin.

This was only the second little hiccup in 6+ years. The first one was also sepsis. So I still can’t complain.

Jeff,  
I was so sorry to read this last night. You have done so well these years. I hope and pray this is an isolated incident and that you get back to full strength soon.  
I went 6 years as well with no problems at all to speak of then the last two years I’ve been in and out of Duke on a regular basis including 2 major transplant related surgeries. 100+ days in the hospital over this time.  
Take care Jeff.

Mark

Not sure how much of a vacation that was, but glad to hear that you’re feeling better.

Hi Jeff:  
Are you in ATL? If so, I am also. I was diagnosed 20 years ago and been on Urso, with no major problems (knock on wood). It would be good to get to know someone in ATL.
