Good news! Bill is home from the hospital.
I got the call this afternoon to pick him up.
Here is what they found:
- Atrophic gastritis
- Esophagitis
- Hematemesis
- Multiple gastric ulcers
- Peptic structure of esophagus
In layman's language Bill has ulcers and an irritation of his esophagus. He also has a fungus infection which is unrelated to his esophagus problem.
Now to begin the journey through the labyrinth of VA health care. We will begin this tomorrow with an in person visit to the VA Outpatient Clinic in Georgetown and Bill's primary care doctor. Wish us luck!
But in the meantime, I am so glad to have Bill home. Our home isn't a home unless Bill is here. I can't imagine my life without him.
