Today was my appointment with Dr. V. Alin Bottoman, who I saw because a friend highly recommended him. If you haven’t read my insurance saga, it might be appropriate reading. You may read that at: April 2007. My previous medical update is at March 2007, and lastly if you don’t remember when it started there’s […]
I fucking HATE insurance companies. Today, I think I shall rip Aetna a new asshole in my blog because they so richly deserve it. They probably have plenty ripped assholes already, so one more ought not bother them. Aetna is comprised of incompetent, idiotic assholes. I think they hope I die before they call back […]
Oh, wait, there isn’t much of one. I’m sick — but don’t feel bad except for the damn infernal 24/7 hacking. The doctor says I’m sick and am suffering from some unknown viral malaise. Doesn’t that sound fun. My throat is shredded to bits from the constant hacking. Talking hurts, so I haven’t been doing […]
A busy day for me, to be sure. I came home after receiving the hernia news, and had a message to please contact the vet’s office to schedule an appointment for more blood work on my cat Scooter. Of course, I immediately called and made an appointment to do so. (If you’d like to see […]
A number of you have inquired about Scooter’s well-being. Thanks to those who cared. My vet is a good vet (a very overpriced vet, but I’ll take overpriced any day over cheap and not good). She’s been on antibiotics for a week to clear up any infection she might have had prior to said surgery. […]
Hi All: There is an update on Dad. I want to thank those of you who have sent your support. He has gotten two opinions from two different doctors at two different hospitals and they concur on the diagnosis. The cancer is stage 3. It has not responded to initial chemotherapy treatments. It has not […]
Dad had his last full and complete physical in May 2006. This November, when I went to the Fastener show, Dad wasn’t feeling well and wasn’t sure if he would even go. He was having a little trouble breathing and we all gave him a bit of a hard time, telling him old age wasn’t […]
Five weeks ago I reported about my health problems and the lesion found on my vocal chords — we named him Fred in the previous post. Just in case some of you actually give a flying fuck, I have an update. Fred was supposed to be entirely gone now. Then I’d be happy and tell […]
If you don’t care about me or my health, you can skip right over this post and read the other stuff in this blog. It’s far more interesting and less disgusting than this post. If you know me, you know I’ve got Acid Reflux disease. Common and not much to say about it really. I’ve […]
Yesterday, I found out I have a slipped vertebrae or disc in my neck. It’s the one right where my neck passes my shoulder. I’m not quite clear on which, but more information will be given to me this Saturday when I return to the doctor. I do know it’s painful as hell. This has, […]
