Surgery and health update

I went to the nephrologist. While I still have metabolic acidosis, it’s looking better. Not normal. Better than it was.

I scheduled my invasive polyps removal. As long as I don’t have to pay anything up front, I’m having it done on October 9th. They told me the surgery would take 3 to 4 hours.

I’m going to see my pdoc soon, as a work in.

Hang in there. It’s not easy going through these things but trust your doctors. A lot of my good health comes from a blind trust in doctors. Mentally and physically I’ve lucked out on some good ones!

Keep up with your treatment and good to hear from you.

I am making stir fry and realized that I hate water chestnuts too. I thought of you when I went through them picking out baby corn and chestnuts. :rofl::rofl::rofl:

That’s hilarious. Save me the baby corn, water chestnuts, and olives. Take care, honey. I know how difficult it is to see docs all the time. I hope you get relief soon.

Take care, my friend. I’ve missed you so.

Four cuts, a few machines, some NSAIDs and a lot of rest.

Hardest part has been telling my dog “no” when she wants a hug

I’m glad to hear. Seems we’re both on the mend

Emeril, I’m working on it. Surgery on the 9th. Tests and doc appointments galore… can I hug your dog? Do you have a pic of him or her to share?

Edit… no clue why I put emeril in there lol

Her giving me a hug, she jumps on top of me, 35lbs, kisses me up, then cuddles herself under my chin and cries. It’s pretty pathetic

Edit PS, she does this multiple times daily, she’ll be napping then out of no where, BAM 35lbs bowling ball on my chest

What’s her name? You two, in the pic, are very sweet. What kind of dog is she?

Thanks for trusting me with the pic. I’m pleased. Get well soon, hon.
