Gut Infection

Dylan gets credit for the title of this post. He thought it should feel in place with the last two lovely titles.
We left the house around 1:30 today to head to the doctor's office. They sent us to the on site lab to check for infection. Then came the real fun part...off to the local hospital for a CT scan of the abdomen. I knew we were in for an adventure from Dylan having his done a few years back. Marcus had to drink almost 2 large glasses full of some type of nasty liquid. After each drink I had to talk him through not throwing it back up. Once all that was down we had to sit and wait for an hour before they could do the scan. So an hour later they take him back and complete the CT. Then another hour for the radiologist to read it.
The end verdict is he does not have appendicitis but he does have inflammation and an infection of the lymph nodes in his stomach. Heck I didn't even know there were lymph nodes in the stomach. Just one more thing we are calling a "Marcus Thing" and trying not to understand it.
We then went for something to eat, the first thing since around 8 this morning, picked his medicine up and headed home.
I threw on my gown without taking a shower and plan on wrapping up in the comforter and sleeping on the mattress cover since the bed doesn't have sheets on it. For some reason right now it just doesn't seem like a priority.
