Had to pull all my traps this morning

[Wiggler]

i had one of the worse nights ive had since i had this diverticulitis . i had to pull everything and head back to Grand Rapids and see the stomach Doctor as soon as he can get me in. i have a feeling their gonna have to cut out a piece of my intestines. he told me last time i had it (2 years ago) that if i got it back again, he would probably have to do surgery. i just want this pain gone!! its possible i might miss the deer opener for the first time since i could hunt.. gotta get fixed. ive had this bout for 4 weeks now and last night i thought i would end up in E.R. wish me luck... pain drugs and cramps drugs on the way.. it stinks gettin old.

I hope you can get it taken care of. I'll be sure to post some catch pics to get you a fix of trapping.

[Ross Brown]

Real bummer Al,Sorry to hear it screwed up your trapping and maybe deer hunting,but today they can do a lot of operations with very little cutting and down time is alot less than yrs ago.Good luck and keep us posted,if you miss deer season he'll be that much bigger next yr ,and remember as far as getting older there's only one alternative that I know of.

[ottertrapper]

Bummer! Hopefully they can take care of you and you can get back to action. OT

Crap Al, that sucks. Even sucks worse than getting a little skunk juice on you.

If you are in Ravenna, and get to fealing better ... come on up. Be good to have someone to talk to ... can't talk to the animals ... 'cause I can't catch the blasted things, LMAO.

I'll shoot you a PM later.

Hope you start to feel better. Remember nothing to eat with seeds or nuts in them.

Sorry to hear but I can relate. 10 yrs ago 16" colon removed....watch your eating.
I cant eat the things that are good for you..tomatoes, lettuce, cabbage. banannas, spicey chilli...anything with seeds or nuts.
Worse is No popcorn or sweetcorn.
PM Me if any questions......I have Diverticulosis and have a nutritionist as a friend.

Hope you get back up and running again soon Wig. Hope all turns out good.

Al,
I don't envy you. I had one diverticulitus attack and never want to have another one. I rode from Howard City to Butterworth holding my rear end off the seat with my arms to get some pain relief.

I have never changed what I eat. Luckily I have never had another attack.

Hey Wiggler, keep your chin up, pain meds you said are on the way!!!! It would be better to get it fixed now so it doesn't get any worse. I hope you and wish the best of luck to you and a quick, quick recovery! There are a whole bunch more of those black and white Pepi Le Pues to catch!!! We hope you get back at it soon!! Gods Speed to you!!
