Damn man. Time to give up the bacon.

Glad your still with us.

Absolutely.

 

[SavageEagle]

JT, you just take it easy and keep your head up.

Well guys. After 5 hours of network trouble shooting. It's time for bed. Not like I have to be up in 3 hours or anything.

 

[RelicHound]

I'm gonna get a green mountain running boar barrel for my rifle

 

[IndyBeerman]

It'll work out for ya... have faith.

And for the love of all the is holy, get some better meds than Tramadol! Talk to SE about the best meds!!!!

They got me on that till after the surgey then I get to go back on the Vicodin's, vicodin 10's be very very good!

 

[IndyBeerman]

Both main arteries clogged, one at 99% and the other at 95%. They put a stint in one and will do the other in a few days.

Avoided the "widow maker"... I will be in the hospital a bit.

I was VERY fotunate to come in when I did, I didn't just dodge a bullet, I dodged a double-tap!!

WHOA!!! Glad this was caught in time Hickman, you take it easy and recouperate, got ya in our prayers!

 

[Seancass]

My boring day seems a lot more tolerable when compared to Hickman's day.

I'm off work the rest of the week. I need something to do.

 

[CVictor]

working from home
class tonight
need to find time to go to the gym but it's not easy to be away from cell phone during the workday

....and i need to buy this weatherby .308 for sale at blythes but am currently resisting

 

[SavageEagle]

Yay! I got a whole hour of sleep last night only to find out that unless I get lucky and pass the stone in the next MONTH (40-50% chance), I'll get to let a 5yr Resident Doctor go in and take it out. AND... there's a possibility that I could have to have a stint put in that would mean having a string hanging out of me for a couple days.... I DON"T like that idea. At all.

 

[IndyBeerman]

At least with the string hanging out you could say "Hey Honey look at me I'm trying to do my best impersonation of you."

Sick, ya I'm sick, I'm still blaming it on my pain meds untill after my surgery!

 

[Bigum1969]

Just got done with taxes...

I'm getting a refund... those two extra kiddos helped.

This means that I only paid like 20K to the feds this year. Lovely.

At least I don't owe any additional...

SE gets to wear a tampon!

SE gets to wear a tampon!

My thoughts exactly. At least now we know why he is so whiney.

 

[turnandshoot4]

That sir, in the medical field, is what we call a man-pon.

I have developed a new found love for Bach. It is filling the house!

You are one of those fancy dudes who wears a robe around the house, huh?

That I believe is what we in the service called a "RIP CORD"

Ouch. No no no. You have it all wrong. That sucker would hurt.

 

[HICKMAN]

Looks like I'll go home tomorrow, and come back in 7-10 days for the second stent.

That's good news. Hang in there man. At least you caught it before something REALLY bad happened.

And as for my stint.... Yea, I'm thinking, uh, NO. They just better not tear my insides up bad enough or I might end up hitting my third doctor....

 

[mk2ja]

Wow, Hickman! Thank God that was caught in time! Glad to still have you among us (even though it certainly would be better to be with our Savior than still here).


SE - you sending your wife to the store to pick up your manpons for you yet??

OK... jk... I hope that gets resolved in the least painful way possible for ya. Try not to drink so much milk from here on out.
