Grizzly Dave Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Haven't been feeling well for a couple of days, so went to the doc this morning.... Kind of half thought maybe I had walking pneumonia again.... wound up with an IV and a Nitro pill and carted down to the ER Labs, xrays, and EKGs were all normal. They figure it must just be stress or a virus or something. Been a bit stressed with company not paying us for the last month. Anyhow, that's how I spent my day, hope you had more fun than I did. Feeling better tonight. Grizz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowhouse Sam # 25171 Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 I'm pragmatic Grizz but I do believe in in some old idioms. Have had chronic sinusitis my whole life requiring at least four Rx for antibiotics a year ...or more. About two years ago I started drinking a mixture of apple juice and V8 Fusion pomegranate and blueberry/veggie juice every day. I think the key is additional Vitamin D which is important in maintaining the immune system. I'm a scientist by training and tend to be skeptical toward snake oil approaches. However, I've not had to take antibiotics in the two year time period. So the old axion is true: An apple a day keeps the Sawbones away....if aimed well. So, hang in there, heal up and hair over.

Feeling better tonight. Grizz I am so sorry you are not well and I wish I could be there to help ya.. When I was a kid I had a sinus problem, and then I had a pretty serious horse accident, big horse, fell on me.. end of story.. lol .. both kinda messed me up a bit. A broken pelvis in not great news for a girl, and it results in a bit of unfortunate new in your life. However I will say the sinus news was painful too. And the surgery was even more so since no one knew that I would react so badly to their drugs and to their putting me to sleep. So, I an understand and I am almost fearful to the point where I dont go in anymore.. lol.. They have tinkered enough.. and good living seems to work.. drugs do not. I hiope you are so much better, and that you little girl is there beside you tonight.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grizzly Dave Posted December 24, 2010 Author Share Posted December 24, 2010 I am fine, no pneumonia, and ticker looks good from what they could tell. I thought it might just be stress, but had to follow my own advice and go see the doc. Better safe than sorry, I've had a couple of friends that avoided docs and tests and such, and self diagnosed and wound up dead. I'd just as soon stick around a bit longer. I can tell ya this though, nitro pills sure give ya a wicked headache! Grizz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfgang, SASS #53480 Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Grizzly . . . sed . . . . "Been a bit stressed with company not paying us for the last month." I hope that you are you considering options ? . . . . . . Like bailing out of there before it collapses ? . . . ? . . . . any prospects of getting paid when you do go back ?

Grizzly Dave Posted December 24, 2010 Author Share Posted December 24, 2010 Wolfgang, yes, looking around. We'd expected to miss one paycheck and were somewhat prepared for it, musing another is a bit of a surprise. If we could get our customers to pay their bills we'd be fine. enough talk about that, don't wanna think about it, time to go wrap some gifts.

Grizzly Dave Posted December 28, 2010 Author Share Posted December 28, 2010 Just a quick follow up for you all. I went in for the treadmill stress test today and it didn't show any problems other than my oxygen dipping low. May wind up with more tests to figure that out after my primary doc gets the results. Haven't had a work out like that in years. As bad of shape as I am in was worried that I couldn't go long enough or hard enough to give them a good idea, but I got well above the target heart rate they wanted so I guess I did good.

Anvil Al #59168 Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Glad things are looking OK. And you was right to go in. There are a lot of folks that have mild heart attacks and don't even realize it. That is until the big one comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
