NO Hungi for this Tongueeeeeeeeeee

[Dot]

Dot will your taste eventually return?

Don't know yet Shirley, the ears may also go silent for a while and need grommets putting in, Might be looking at them putting the stomach PEG in as this swallowing is not happy. Also taking Sucralfate Oral Suspension to help with getting liquids down. I think I should go back to see my favorite Gas man in NZ for him to keep me knocked out for the next 2 weeks whilst all this shite is going on ( he did that in Canada with the junkies) detox under GA, worked well and saved $ millions but neither NZ or Oz would spend the $$$$ yeah just dish the crap out here and there and make the ones that do need drugs pay for it end of that added rant Today I am in a real shitey emotional bitchy frustrated day so bear with me POOR Gman

On ACA right now they are showing that girl Cloe with what I have CRPS aka RSD . I had it it first way back when my L) wrist was injured in 1993 it has calmed over the years but as you know it has returned back in my R) hand after the graft was done for this last op. I have had every type of treatment for this condition and I agree hypnosis is a goer.. will get back to it asap. Woo hoooooo finally someone has taken notice

[Shirley]

Totally understand how you must be feeling, hard to be pleasant & bright when you feel totally shite & just having to get up to go each day & get there & back, at least your halfway thru the treatment. Hard when you can't even swallow water, do they ever keep folk in hospital for the treatment?
Feel for George too, no good him seeing you suffer & not being able to ease your problems.

Does put strain on the partner as you know all too well but in one way it is the "ultimate test" for want of a better choice of words. I think you have to be mad not to realise that you need help and if you don't ask then you are asking for trouble, I used to try to hide things but no more. I am hoping that I can get through without any more "days off" so the end stays at the same time as we thought. We have plans to make I think that if it got too bad or you didn't have any support then they would have to admit you into hosp. I feel for those people that have no support in these times. G keeps things very close to his chest and to the "outsider" he appears to be ever so cool and calm but I know he is sort of struggling. He is a genuine person but has no idea how to ask or accept any help from anyone or anywhere. This is one of his traits that really annoys me with him I give him shit but he knows most of me is hot air (mostly) HTFFBO made me laugh earlier, I was having a gripe about G keep shoving drugs etc into my mouth and she remarked " you may get lucky" I had my Dykish hair cut today as it is starting to thin out so thought better to beat it to it. Might get a pic of HTFFBO and me to show our hair do's BE warned it may upset some viewers Upward and onward everyone

Hey, Dottie,
You have your head on right-way-round...
If you don't ask for help, no-one knows, and no-one offers... well, mostly if they offer some help it's not what/how you want it.
Experience speaks.
The only way through is to concentrate on what you're planning for AFTER the treatment.
ONYA, GIRL!!
Love & prayers from me & SWMBO.

Yes Dot,, What Ray has said. From all of us.

What prayers from some of you are you really trying to kill me off ..
George tried with his Morphine drinks and failed but some of you lot praying is just asking for trouble.

[supersparky]

Nah, 'cause not. If some of us starting prayin' the church would fall in.
I was just saying that if you or Gman need any support then say so. Or maybe even a little help to prepare the morphine.

Just be careful they don't slip any little blue pills in the drug mix. Not being able to swallow might get the little blue pill stuck half way, then you'll end up with a stiff neck as well
Ray might be correct about your head being on the right way but are you sure they didn't cross thread it when they were screwing it back on? Could be part of the problem eh

Keep going girl and if pain relieve helps then take it, after 30 odd years of poping the pain relieve pills I know. Just remember you cantrol them they do not control you. Have a good nights sleep and hope to meet you and Gman soon. Robert
