Recovery is still awful slow. I went nowhere today. Mostly just between bed and couch, getting up for small things to eat.

I'm not in any real distress. Just weak and tired and sore, when moving. On couch, or in bed, I'm comfortable enough. I'm afraid that gut infection may be smoldering. I could have an abscess. The CT scan doesn't always identify the whole story. Maybe I was taken off the I/V antibiotics too soon.

Tomorrow I see my PCP. She is a physician's assistant. I like her well enough. I'ld feel better, if I had a really good MD for my PCP.

Back in my healthy 20s, my PCP was always a doctor. Now that I'm starting to have age-related issues, I get these quasi-competent practitioners. What a system we've got. As you get older, they want to spend less money on you.
