Well, that sucks

A couple of weeks on Zantac may tell the tale, but it seems I have a peptic ulcer. I had one 20 years ago and remember the symptoms and the medical indignities all too well. This is called getting the short straw: After three months post-op eating Advil like M&Ms, something like this was bound to catch up with me.

At least the procedures will be one way of getting a day or two off, and fortunately I have a professional interest in what's being done to me.
