Also let me drop some knowledge on you dudes.

If for some reason your back kinds hurts out of nowhere and you pee looksl like yuengling lager. Dont worry about holding for the first of the year so you dont have to pay 2 insurance deductables just go to the dang doctor.

Mu issues in begining of december. Doc gave some vicodins and kuscle relaxers and said if the urine was still dark in a few days to see a urologists. I figured I could tough it out till the new year as I hadnt been to the doc yet in 2012 and didnt want to waste my health savings account by splitting office vists between years. Was felling pretty crappy all through Xmas while still peeing lager.

Had to work newyears eve, I had every intention of going to patient first on new years becuase I knew i had some issue with my kidney or somehting (i mean i was peeing Lager for three weeks). Worked no problem, ate lunch (leftover turkey Breast and stuffing) no problem. About 1430 i went into bathroom and puked my guts out. Then this crazy pain came, more painful than any pain of all times. Called my boss told him i had to go to hospital, locked up and everything. Drove home (puked on the way). Called ambulance made it ER where they put me in whell chair and made me wait in the waiting room for an hour. Another hour later I finally gotr some pain medicine. about 4 AM they admitted into hospital. 8 days leater Im out. I had Gullstones thatwere blocking bile ducts and not letting anythign work. I had severe pancreatitis that had me in the hospital for 8 freaking days. Still waiting for lipase levels to drop lowenough so the can remove my gallbladder.


So if your pee looks like lager for more than a day go see the doc.

dang hollywood.. so sorry to hear about your health problems! geez, sounds like you almost waited too long. glad you are getting it taken care of now!

p.s. - i just peed some serious lager colored pee before reading this... hrmm.. i think it is just my normal "on the brink of serious dehydration" that i suffer from but i guess i shouldn't take it lightly! (probably TMI for the TT boards but it was weird timing)

maybe your gallbladder was just blocked up with J.O.?????
stupid gallbladder! i think i successfully removed one from a frog once in biology. so, if you want me to do it.. i hardly cost nuthin!

heal up bro! guess the kick serve practice will have to wait!

get better soon HW. after ur operation, we will look forward to ur 140+ MPH serves again.

my friend's mom just had her gall stones taken out as well, before she did, she had her blood tested for cancer. doc said its a good precautionary bcz if the stone contains any cancerous cells, u don't want to get it broken up before it leaves the body or else it will spread faster.

Good thing Shanahan isn 't your boss. Sounds like you need another 101-year-old greaseburger. Come on down anytime.

Ouch, HW. Literally. Gallbladder issues are no fun. Hell, anything south of the belly-button/beebo is no fun. Prostrates, Uteruses ...all those gender-parts cause all kinds of havoc, working or not.

Hydrate up, rest up. Recuperate.

Everyone alive in here? *checking TWMAC pulse*

HW, tough deal on the gall bladder. I don't have mine anymore. Lots of women don't. Take that as you will...women (especially pregnant ones) are more disposed. You're young...plenty of time to make healthier lifestyle choices.

Blocking of the ducts from your liver is no laughing matter though. I'm glad they caught it early. And yeah, the pain is like no other. Its good you went to the doctor and didn't just ignore it.

When is the sucker coming out? Open? Or lap? Mine was lap, and it took longer to recover from that than it did my open appendectomy. Hell, have them take that out too while you're at it...life is better with fewer spare parts!

Again, on a more serious note...it took me a good few months for things to work normally again. The gall bladder is the reservoir for bile, and without it, bile is just free-floating through your GI system. No harm, no foul, but it takes awhile for your body to adjust.

Lesson for the TWMAC kids...pay attention to what comes out of your body, it can tell you lots of things!

Well even though my game parts of my game were awesome with vcore89 i am over it. Sort of hard to tell if i should make such a drastic switch when i never played anybody over 2.0.
Also selling my ig speeds even though they were great for pegging 1st serves at sappy and 2nd serves at coolblue! I just wanted a more solid feel and slightly more power so the search goes on.
I think i could krush ALL with blxpro but i was quickly reminded in my wrist and elbow about how.stiff those suckers are. So i might jist use them but need softer poly if im gonna be able to use them.
Anybody that uses pure.drive or clone have poly suggestion? I wish.i could use hybrid but it just isnt as spin lethal. Black code 17 has been killin my arm although it is VERY d aold and dead string.

I think the plan is for lap surgery. Which I hope they do. At the moment my Lipase levels are too high for them to operate. Waiting the results from some blood work friday to see if they came back down in the normal range.

GI Surgeon said normal Lipase is like 5-50 units per liter and mine peaked at 30,000. Pain was unbearable. I would thank the the guy that invented dilaudid if he were still alive. Mom said she was reading and people saying they were at like 2000 and in pain. Mine was at 2000 when they let me out of the hospital. part of the reason I was on liquid diet for the past 5 days. Finally started eating regular food yesterday.


They have these hospitalits who are just doctors that see admitted paitients. Pretty much all the doc did was walk in ask how I was doing tell me stuff the contradicted the specilists adn billed me 100 bucks for 5 minutes. Insurance rate was like 63 bucks. But still. I should have gotten good at lacrosse and went to johns hopkins on scholarship.

HW - hope you are feeling better. that's kinda ridiculous what you've been through but you have a way with words. also good to see you throw in a humble brag in there. "most people with 2000 have pain. i was at 30,000. weak sauce."

My wife had her gall bladder removed way back when, before they invented the suction technique. Full incision, long recovery. She told me the pain was like trying to pass a kidney stone, which I always thought was the most pain men could experience. Glad you got it checked, and hope everything comes out okay.

On a tennis note, I finally achieved the ultimate NTRP rating. I was trying to register a couple of teams for the upcoming season (a 40+ team so I can play singles and a 55+ team so I can have conversations with people who actually remember the 1960s), and when I got everything done and hit the "register team" button, TennisLink told me I had to self rate. Checked out my USTA number and my name, and I am listed as a 0.0. Ha. USTA finally got it right. If they really let me self-rate, I might try 3.0 for a while.

How 'bout them Ravens? May see an all Harbaugh SB.

Definitely get well HW. Yeah, I've always hated going to the ER - they never do much anyway plus make you wait 3 hours for anything UNLESS you're really dying...
