That had to be a nasty surprise. Hope you recover well.

I picked up a very old Michael Crichton, writing as Jeffery Hudson, from 1968, "A Case of Need." Lots of medical jargon, with footnotes. Its mildly interesting.

We'll have to start calling this the, Fiction Thread for the Infirm. I have to have an epidural next week for a bulging disc that has laid me low for months.
