After finishing the shakedown cruise on my new yacht, we pulled back into the marina thinking the hard part was behind us. But shortly after, I started having serious GI problems and ended up making an emergency trip to the ER in Thailand.
What followed was a scary few days of blood tests, an ultrasound, CT scan, and endoscopy as doctors tried to figure out what was going on. For a while, there was real concern that it could be something as serious as cancer. Thankfully, we were able to rule that out.
At this point, doctors don’t believe it is pancreatitis either. What they did find were clots and thrombosis in some major abdominal veins, and we’re still waiting on more answers about what caused it and what the long-term prognosis will be.
This isn’t the episode I expected to make after finally getting the new yacht, but it’s part of the journey, and I wanted to share what’s been happening behind the scenes.
Thanks for watching and for all the support.
