Waiting For The Antiobiotics To Kick In.

[poliphilo]

Ailz is bad again. Same trouble. Probably gall bladder. We went to our own doctor and he's prescribed her anti-biotics. Now we're waiting to see what effect they have.

We watched a rare early Kurosawa yesterday afternoon. Scandal. About a libel case and a venal lawyer who sees the light. It's a Christmas movie- part Dickens, part Capra- with snow and a dying child and the singing of Auld Lang Syne (in Japanese.) Also it's something of a practice run for Kurosawa's masterpiece, Ikuru.

First ice, now fog. The forecasters are saying we're going to have our harshest winter for a decade.

antibiotics for gallbladder trouble? Now that is the first time I hear this. If she doesn't get better in a day or two, try to get a second opinion from an enterologist. Nowadays it is really easy to remove the gallbladder alltogether, and get rid of the whole trouble! Please give her a comforting hug from me!

Thanks.

She's in hospital now and the strategy- as she explained it to me over the phone this morning- is to try antibiotics and if they don't work to take her down to surgery and whip the gall bladder out. They're still doing tests (I don't they they're 100% sure of the diagnosis yet.)
