Guest guest Posted May 31, 2008 Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 Hi all The soap opera coming from North of the 49th Parallel continues unabated Well, I had my follow up chest x-rays on Tuesday and my doctor's appointment Friday morning. I could have done without both as they are bad news. Seems the Pneumonia is of the persistant type and it is still down in the lower lobe of my right lung. My doc while listening to my chest said he can still hear the garbage rolling around in the bottom of the Right lower lobe. I decided to set him straight on what was down there. I told him it was not garbage but a case of galloping crud, probably a left over from the last attack of the galloping crud from last year which followed a previous attack the year before. I see him again next Friday and we will try to figure out where we go from there. If the crud is still there, he may admit me back into the hospital for a much more agressive treatment. They have to do something soon. It is systemic as I continue to break out into a heavy sweat even when I am standing talking to someone. They can even notice it just streaming down my face. Had that happen at a friend's Dollar Store and she almost called the ambulance. Of course this infection or whatever it is, is causing havoc with my blood sugars but I have not had raging highs or bottomless lows which is good. In the meantime the pain levels for the AS, RA are still getting up into the 8's and 9s during this. Even had a 10 today. I am managing to read emails but just can't answer them too often. All those asking for prayers, you are getting them in overdrive. Hazel and I thank you all for your prayers, kind words of encouragement and support. Blessings and Prayers to you all Fr. Dave PS, if the above is not enough, my eye glasses broke last night and the break is in a spot that does not lend itself to be wired up or taped together. I see the Eye doc at the end of June. So, if you hear a loud roar from north of the 49th parallel, it is only me sounding off. --- avast! Antivirus: Outbound message clean.
