All right, I have informed family, so this is what I can pass on at this point:

Rob does not have appendicitis or diverticulitis. Based upon the results of his CAT scan (in which they found swollen/inflamed lymph glands in his abdomen) and lab results, however, he has been admitted to the hospital. He also has some other symptoms he had not told me about, the sneak, and so they are going to be doing tests today to chase down a number of possibilities. The admitting doctor said that the lymph glands could simply be a sign of infection. Or they could be something much more serious and more tests are needed.

I was at the ER until 5:00 a.m. I have made some calls and I am going to turn in and try to sleep for a few hours, so no calls for now, please. Later, I am going back to the hospital and we will see if they've learned anything more after today's battery of tests. He has been admitted to the University of Minnesota hospital (the one on campus). Private message me and I'll give you his phone number if you want it--but he's sleeping too at the moment, or trying to--he got even less sleep than me.

More later as I learn more.

Oy! I hope it's just an easily treated infection, and that you all are able to get some rest.
