My good friend Jim (RedneckDude) found out today that he has been diagnosed with an Aortic Aneurysm. Please send him love and prayers in this post, he definitely has mine!
Hang tough Jim, give 'em Hell.
Luckily, he didn't just sit there and heap insults on the button. Might have thought insults would depress the button.
We All Fn U Red ! KNOW IT !
Sorry to hear, Jim!
Jim, you've got my prayers.
Good luck Jim. I was recently diagnosed with an enlarged Aorta and spinal stenosis. Aging is impacted by what we accumulate over the years. I am taking a statin now, blood pressure medication, and a muscle relaxant. I have also lost 30 lbs.
I see a neurosurgeon this week.
I plan on living for many years longer because I really enjoying annoying people.
All the very best to you and your treatment Red.
All the best wishes!!!
Thoughts, prayers, and best wishes to you!
Thanks everyone. You guys are family. I appreciate the kind words and thoughts. I will just say this:
I'm NOT gonna be asking anyone for money although anyone wishing to help with my loss of income could PM me if they wanted...
I'll keep yuns posted.
Ok, admittedly that was a bit dramatic...lol. I was distraught at the moment.
So, what is happening?
Ok, I have been sick for weeks, kept ignoring it, thinking it's just allergies. Finally I decide to go the the doctor to get some help. A lung xray and some discussion said I had a bacterial lung infection, for which I am being treated.
That xray also showed an aortic aneurysm way up near my heart. Cardiologist is next move.
My wife has temporarily lost half her bring home pay, 1400 per month loss, so even though the Dr said no work, I have to work as long as I can. Fortunately, running a register at a gas station isn't grueling work.
