Thanks yesterday I couldn’t move without pain. “Good” Pain killers were my friend. this morning, not even the same. I’ve pretty much been without pain meds since 6 pm. It’s now 6:30 AM.
Well I’m home. Not only do I have a pulmonary embolism, but they gave me antibiotics for pneumonia too. as to what’s next… I have meetings scheduled with a pulmonary specialist and an hematologist. I also have a meeting with my cardiology team.
I've been minding my neighbors OWB while he is on vacation this week and it burns what can only be described as a terrifying amount of wood. Glad I got a gasser.
Ughhh...just had mine replaced on Tuesday, there went 1K I could have used to buy supplies (More Beer)!!
Those are nasty and deadly. Had one in my early 30's. Now you have to be extra careful about getting cut. Make sure you have access to a first aid kit at home and in your car. Read up on taking care of cuts. Make sure your wife knows. Also, no asprin or motrin or any other anti-inflammatory meds.
Oh, this is the third time I’ve had anticoagulants since 2015. After my heart attack in 2015 and again in 2018 when I had complications from an angioplasty in my right arm. my word I wanted to take a hatchet to my elbow to kill the pain. this is my first PE though and I’m more scared of it than my heart attack.
We got a call from our oldest son and his wife. They told us their oldest girl just got engaged today. I guess the wedding won't be until next year. This is our oldest grandchild. Fun times ahead. Looks like we are getting closer to being great grandparents.
