Update on a "wandrin'" Blade

  1. I realize Drs. are Human, and make mistakes,............BUT, I wish they wouldn't make a diagnosis until they were reasonably SURE!!!!!!!! I woke up a week and a half ago with what appeared to be a Hernia. PoohGator dragged me to Hospital to get checked out ( I Hate Hospitals.........People DIE there lol ) E.R. Dr. came in, took a very quick exam, and said BLUNTLY " We have to transfer you to New Orleans. You have an infection known as "Fornier's Gangrene" and the survivabilty rate is only 50%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    New Orleans is a teaching Hosp. so after about 1/2 dozen "student interns" examined me, and a lot of hours later, a Urology specialist said I didn't have to worry, I only had an infection called a "Phlegman" ????? and after a week or so in the hospital I'd be fine!! What a relief!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Been home a few days now, and am so glad!!! PoohGator is ten times the nurse that I'd had in Hospital, and...............................................................................................................................................................................I can flirt with my nurse, and NOT get in trouble!!!!!LMAO!!



    Hope all is well with our many "family & friends" here at the CITY!!!!!!


    Peace,Luck,Love,and BIG OLE' BUDS to all!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    Hope to catch up with all soon!!!

  5. hehe... fucking doctors.

    i've had my dose of their premature pressumption myself.

    stay on this side of the abyss dude.
    it's good to see you "check in" to the city. friendly vibes and laughter will do far more for you than some doctors misdiagnosis.
     
  6. Glad it wasn't as bad as they first thought.. I hope you get well soon.. Tell poohgator to give you some tender loving care!

    I hope all is well with every thing else!
     
  7. So are you trying to keep the medical biz afloat sniglehandedly? I think you've done your share, you can retire to reasonable health now. Glad yer on the road back. Come see us when you can. Hey to Poohgator, and I'll bet she's had to slap your hands more than once!
