So far things are starting to come back together.?ÿ Hoping for another solid night of sleep.?ÿ As the song says, "You don't know what you got till it's gone."?ÿ Sleep, that is.?ÿ Gotta have it.
glad that you're feeling better!
Glad the chemistry set is achieving equilibrium again
Rest up, the end of year xmas fury is ramping up!
Glad you're on the mend.
Guess I'll head north this weekend to help with that survey after all. ?????ÿ
Contact me if you get in the area.?ÿ It's been a long time.
Glad yer back and progressing. You, single handidly, whipped this joint into a frenzied beehive of speculation. I kinda had hopes for the young barfly. Maybe next time huh? ???? ?ÿ
Maybe he could refer her to you while he gets back to full steam?
Well, it is a bit disturbing to wake up to find some woman standing at the end of your bed telling you it's time to get up and out.?ÿ Especially when you've never seen her before in your life.
My wife tells me I have returned to being my normal disagreeable self.?ÿ I'll take that as a compliment and recognition that I am doing much better now.?ÿ It would help if I could accept that as being accurate.?ÿ We'll see.
I was in a bad place about 35 years ago and a shrink wrote me a prescription for some "mood enhancing" medicine.?ÿ I never noticed any side effects...but it put everybody around me in a better mood.?ÿ?ÿ😉
No, but I got to flush a 3/4 full bottle of pills that cost $200.?ÿ ?ÿ
It it's not on the FDA flush list (only about a dozen powerful opiate drugs) *do not* flush prescription medications down the toilet, they mess with the environment.?ÿ Either dispose of them through a drug take back program ?? or you can do it at home following a specific procedure before you throw them in the household trash.
That was back in the day when you could flush anything you wanted into your own septic tank.?ÿ Now that I live in town I just take the pill bottle to the park with me when I walk the dogs and hand the pills out to the homeless folks.?ÿ 😉

A couple of years ago a vegetarian co-worker was upset because his meatless "hot dogs" had gone missing from the common work fridge. I told him I wanted to feel better so I took them out to the homeless folks around our building and had to run for my life to keep from being attacked for trying to poison them.
About 15 years ago I was a victim of "prescription poisoning" administered by my PCP.?ÿ Damned near killed me.
Me too.?ÿ My faith in my?ÿ Primary Care Provider doctor dropped several notches after I spent 5 years complaining my right ear was going deaf and developing tinnitus and he ascribed it to too many firearms and dirt bikes in my youth, live with it.?ÿ I finally ended up yelling at him to do something and pointing to my right ear so he grudgingly sent me to the audiologist.?ÿ She confirmed my right ear was severely deaf but pooh poohed it was ageing and did some strange tests involving repeating words and some clamp on electrical things. She said I may have a very rare brain tumor and ordered an MRI.?ÿ Lo and behold I had a growing brain tumor which was destroying my right ear hearing and would debilitate/kill me in a few more years.?ÿ ?ÿThe skull surgery team went into high gear and administered stereotactic radiosurgery which involved going to LA where the?ÿ only facility in So. Cal. was. They neutralized it and it's not gotten worse ten years later, although I now have $5,000 hearing aids and it's kinda hard to understand folks in noisy environments and soft talkers.?ÿ Sad that had it been diagnosed five years earlier I'd still have good hearing.
Here's the takeaway.?ÿ This PCP is like a cattle rancher with thousands of cattle; ignore ageing complaints & if a cow is diagnostically sick it's likely X therefore administer Y which will likely fix it.?ÿ When diagnosed, my PCP said he'd never heard or had a patient with my rare tumor and didn't apologise for his delay to send me to specialists.?ÿ I was statistically insignificant.?ÿ With my plan I can switch PCPs at the drop of a hat but medical industry friends said I could jump from the frying pan into the fire; my description of his care concerning other matters was acceptable.
It's too bad you ended up in the hospital.
I had an issue in 2018 and one thing I highly recommend is Fentanyl. The doctor said he gave me the good stuff, not the over the border bad stuff.
I can say it works really, really well.?ÿ
You feel so good you think you can do anything.?ÿ
They didn't let me stay on it very long,,,,,probably a good thing.?ÿ
Hope you get better soon, and stay better.?ÿ
