Yes I Can! And You Cant Stop Me!
APPENDED.. in red
Here I am and I am writing something!!! Yes, today I have thought about it and yes diddly doo, I am writing and there's little to be done to stop this insane process. I guess one could feasibly just switch to another blog or trip elsewhere to a web site elsewhere - but c'mon! Why would you want to? Duh!
I visited Old Doctor for the very last time Tuesday. The results of the dopplar said I have no blood clots. The result of the blood test (tested at Vlad Laboratories, Transylvania) and I have no hepatitis. My liver problem may be related to the Zocor I take to control my Cholesteral, so Im off it for a while.
Then I get brave and mention the foot pain and nocturnal swelling. The man all but rolls his eyes and dismisses it as the nothing to be concerned about. I kinda get the feeling he thinks I'm imagining the pain. Excuse me but I have a real distaste for doctors and hospitals and gots better things to do than to drag myself into his office for attention.
The New Doctor phoned in the results Monday afternoon on the X-rays taken. No obvious bone breaks or micro-fractures and no noticeable soft tissue tears. Was then asked if I wanted an MRI ran. Frustration sets in.., "No. I don't think anyone is going to be able to tell me anything so I'll just suffer. Maybe it'll get better on its own." Grrrrrr.
Anywho - I wanted to write something so yous mugs would know I'm still alive and well (knock wood) and hopefully the foot will get better on its own. I expect to get up one day soon and the pain be gone. It wont be the doctors to take care of it - obviously.

Somewhere in the expansive book titled "Jerry's Guide to happy living" there is a chapter that says, don't go to doctors that wear head dresses!! |

AAUGH!!!! Doctors.
Pain is something they really can't understand. They can't hear it through their stethoscope, see it with their eyes, detect it in your blood ... they can't measure it and deal with it in the only way they know how. So it seems they ignore it until it gets so bad that it causes something else that they can detect. Like screaming at the doctor. Then they may treat it. |

Sheesh, Daveman. Where are you going for these dr. appointments? Dokters 'r' Us? At least you have no heppertitis or blood clots. You're a little low on bedside manner, too, I'd say. |
