For a while it seemed I had two medical appointments a day and I got pretty burned out about it. The main reason I'm so unhappy is that I don't need a cardiologist or a vascular specialist to tell me my arteries are shot, or to keep harping on the fact that it is due to my being a former heavy smoker, or that I need to take drugs that I don't trust. What I do need is to get the thing taken care of that has been causing pain over the past years, and that is gallstones. I still haven't heard from the specialist who would do the endoscopy, that I need to have done before the surgeon removes my gallbladder. Yes, Anonymous commenter, I'm damn cranky!
Surprisingly I haven't been feeling any pain lately but I sure can't stay awake for long. I think it's because I don't have any reason to do much of anything. I want to go camping for a couple of days (as I may have written before) but I felt I could go most anywhere when I had my dog with me. Now I suddenly have to exercise a bit more caution and I've had a dog for so many years this is a new concept for me.
I've looked online to see if there are any available pets that are suitable for my situation, but of course I'm in no position to offer a good life for a dog right now. The time will come though and I'll know when it's right.
So I will tell you that I'm feeling ok considering my situation, and will post again when I have the next procedures lined up. In the meantime there isn't much else I can say.
- Feeling Great Today!
After my workout yesterday evening, I woke up feeling good and without an ache or a pain! I certainly didn't overdo the exercise on my first time back in 6 weeks, but I gave it a good effort and felt sore and worn out until I went to bed...

I haven't posted for a couple of days because I haven't been feeling very well, but also had troubles linking to Donald's WiFi. He fixed that for me this evening so I just wanted to write a short post. I am anxious for my post op which...
- Not Much News
I don't know if it's the delicious high-test coffee I've had the past two mornings, or the B-12 shot. I've been getting along with much less sleep than usual. You will remember I had been mixing decaf coffee beans with the...
- Worse Than I Thought
I saw a specialist this morning who told me I have gallstones and need surgery. Unfortunately, some stones have migrated into the bile duct, and before he can operate, I have to have them "cleaned out" via an endoscopy. My worst nightmare...

Tired of waiting around
