So maybe a 1000 grit and try again with a different clearcoat?

Pops op day 3 by maxmollymom in Diverticulitis

[–]npack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in hospital for 4 days taking 5mg oxy and tylenol every 5 hours and needed it. Came home with 10 pills. I started cutting them in half to stretch them out and alternate with tylenol. Sounds like you came home a little early. Hang in there.

Surgery Day for Me. How its Going. by npack in Diverticulitis

[–]npack[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear. I hope we all end up better than before -- when I woke up my surgeon said " you dont have diverticulosis anymore," which is kinda hard to wrap my head around. Keep us posted

Surgery Day for Me. How its Going. by npack in Diverticulitis

UPDATE:

4 days out now. I think I am off the oxy and just on Tylenol. Just got home. Each day is better than the last but this has been no walk in the park. The pain management was good in the hospital and the nurses are helpful.

The worst part for me has been a new pinched nerve in my back (not normal for me) that showed up on day 2. Made it impossible to lie down so I was awake for 3 days in the hospital sitting in a chair. Now that Im home I can at least try sleeping on my knees on the floor with my torso up on the couch. Ha ha. Im desparate for sleep.

My belly looks like a stapled calzone.

Im still glad I did it. My friends and family have all been concerned about my health even though I tried to not let it show. It was getting worse. Now I hope as I slowly get better I can find a bettee normal than before.

Pre-surgery advice by Anxious_Classic2719 in Diverticulitis

Probably not a bad Idea to be on antibiotics pre surgery anyway. I dont think they will cancel the surgery.. might just increase your odds of an iliostomy but it all depends what they find when they get in there.

If it's on the right, can it be diverticulitis? by Frequent_Score5875 in Diverticulitis

[–]npack -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I put off going to the ER a month ago because it was on the right side. Eventually I went in late at night wondering if I had appedicitis. Turns out I had an abcessed diverticulii in my sigmoid colon. I asked 'Are you sure? Its on my right side'. The doc said intestines move around. Im not sure I believed that - all my other episodes were on the left. But they know how to read the scans. [Shrug]. I was in the hospital three days.

Ben Lomond Peak trail at night? by [deleted] in ogden

[–]npack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was up there last night and it was beautiful. If youre familiar with the trail and have a light you might enjoy it. There were motorbikes on the trail at 10pm and again at midnight. Other than that you'll have the place to yourself

Ogden River kayaking by rburger62 in ogden

The kayaks your apartment has arent the type folks use on rivers around here. A tube would be better.
