Rang 111 and went through assessment. Told to get here immediately. Wasn't feeling well last night. Ended up with stomach cramps which developed into a fever. Hot and cold sweats. Woke up to a very wet bed after finally getting comfortable to sleep. Stomach is very tender to touch and feel like I want to pee all the time. BP was through the roof this morning so suspected An infection. Just been through Triage, now waiting to see what they are going to do with me after giving a Urine sample. Sorry to hear that mate. I hope it is something minor and easily treatable... If not can my son have all your outdoor camping and fishing gear ?? 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winston Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Lying on the bed in my boxers, aircon on, sometime looking at some stuff on the tv, sometime reading a Stephen Leather book, wondering whether to go for a drink tomorrow. Otherwise not much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that's it and nothing more, and that it's treatable with a course of antibiotics. That was my best guess too. 1 hour ago, Derek Dangleberries said: Sorry to hear that mate.

Thanks guys, just got home at 3pm absolutely starving, I didn't eat this morning in case I had to have an op. Good news - turns out my urine was clear of everything they tested for. Bad news - My stomach just below my belly button is very tender and the prognosis is I may have a hernia. Got to visit my doctors surgery tomorrow to insist on getting it examined and hopefully scanned to make sure! I could of gone on my way home, but didn't want to have to sit and wait for hours to see a doctor with no food inside me.

Well, this isn't the worst possibility by any stretch, and not all hernias require surgery. Good luck mate, and keep us informed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maipenrai Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Get well soon, boydeste - the fish are out there waiting for you. Well, I was going to change over my winter rims for their summer counterparts on my little Ford Ranger today but the sunny day that was forecast has turned out cold and windy instead; I think I'll adjourn to my buddy's auto body shop for a couple of lunchtime beers and reassess the situation afterwards... 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfingboy Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Just got back from the hospital and another meeting with internal medicine. All looks great, except for me feeling like shite. She said I have to re-introduce exercise, and my lower pulse/BP point to maybe even being off the beta-blocker soon……maybe still a chance at a normal life I even decided to drive home, first time behind the wheel in 2023. Went OK, a little nervous though 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you are sorting through things. I had an event similar to that about 4 or 5 years ago. Ended up in the E.R., brutally painful. Ran all kinds of tests including and MRI. They couldn't figure out what it was. Turned out to be gas. Cost me a small fortune. Only thing good that came out of it was that I now have a good solid baseline of tests. A buddy of mine used to get bladder infections often. Extremely painful. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zambo Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Just finished a 1hr session in the gym after a 1 month break. Felt great but will probably feel it tomorrow or more likely Friday. Going to plan for twice a week but try to make that 3 times 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never thought it was my thing but if it keeps me focussed for 3 months that's just fine. Edited May 10, 2023 by Zambo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightcrawler Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Just half way through giving my bathroom and toilet a deep clean. I stink of bleach and I hate it. But I have guests coming round tomorrow for the day and I don't want them to think that I am a lazy slut. It's not that bad anyway. Not as if the walls are caked with shit😁😁😁 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After about 10 months of promising myself to do that and doing it maybe three times in that span, the toilet fungus answered to "Eric" and had its own email address. So I finally hired a maid to clean my condo. She came twice a month for the princely sum of $80 per visit. Place was hospital clean and smelled like an old spinster's parlor when I got home from work. This was especially nice when I went on vacation. Texted her a couple of days before I got home and returned to the aforementioned pristine condo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightcrawler Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Bathroom and toilet done. Just finished mopping the kitchen floor and bleaching down all of the work surfaces ..... I'm on roll Next is to vacuum the hall stairs and landing . 3 flights of stairs. The worst job of all, save for last. Just hope my guests don't look in my bedroom, that looks like it's been hit by a torpedo. I don't often entertain, just as well 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good choice, especially if you want your guests to do their shitting in the pub down the street. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
