    I'm feeling kind of iffy folks, I've been up and down all day. I'm hoping a nights sleep clears all this up. I'm going to call it a early night and hope I get to come out and play again tomorrow. If I find myself in the hospital tomorrow I'll get my sister to log on and let you folks know. She's a PC specialist for the phone company and understands all this stuff. I'm just feeling bad right now, I'm sure I'll be fine in the morning.

    I'm okay folks I got Cecile to do a full work over, low fever, BP was okay then he found a lump on my lower back. I had another infected ceast (bump, bed sore?) he has lanced and cleaned and bandaged me up. With that gone I feel so much better now (all the bed rest and sitting is hard on my back) he said was large and had got bad. I don't feel them anymore, that part of my back is mostly numb, he called Jane and she said as long as it looks to be healing by Monday I'm good. If not, then its the doctor for a deeper look and better meds than I have here right now. I have to stop two of my Arthur meds until it's healed, they supress my system which is why I get the buggers to start with. That's okay with me I never wanted those in the first place. So I'll be around and I know why I felt bad (I should have known to start with, I'll remember the next time to check for an infection first.)

    Just wanted to clear things up, and not leave you fine people with a worry in your hearts. Besides, I'm pretty smashed, Cecile forgets I don't feel much anymore on my back so I got a extra pain med and extra time. He wants to watch my temp over night. I'm good, I already feel better.

    Ah Ha the darn things are called cyst, why don't they just say a boil? I know that word.

    Any who it took no time to get caught up on the forums. I think everybody crashed but me.

    Hey, Jacob thank's for the thoughts. I told Dr. Allon I did not want those imuneo whatizz but no they are the best I can get to slow down Arthur that or shots of the other ones. I told him just stop the pain the arthur is done here.

    I see, I think I might crash on you, meds kicking pretty darn good now. Cecile can just wake me up for the next temp test. I'm pushing 21 hours now on a dialysis day. Darn fool thinks I can stay up all the time like him. I bet he don't sleep four hours in a day. I feel good enough to not worry when I sleep now. That's always good.

    You be good and do up another Cararra render for us. See you in the morning.

    lol. I meant to work on my mountain render today, but I have been distracted trying to find an old elementary school friend that keeps crossing my mind. They say it's a small world, but that's not true -- I can't find ANY of them. Kinda like waking up from a dream and realizing it never happened.

    Makes me want to write a song. lol

    Hey Jeff, glad to hear you avoided a trip to hospital and are feeling a bit more chipper again.

    Now, Jacob, why is saying a prayer against TOS?

    Our Father, who art in Heaven,
    I'm going to a car boot sale today,
    Please don't let me buy any crap,
    And I'll say hip hip hooray,
    Amen.

    @ Jaderail - fwiw

    by reading your posts and to see you help anybody(!) with a question I get the feeling I get to know you.
    Ofcourse I do not know you just by reading posts - but I just want to say how sorry I am with the mess you are in.

    You are in my prayers - for someone like you that stays positive all through : I have deep respect.
    Cheers

    Jeff, you had an abscess
    my cats get them if they get into fights and bites get infected.
    If I catch it in time, draining and cleaning with hydrogen peroxide will fix them, if not, it is a costly visit to the vet and lots of struggling with the pill popper device designed to drop the antibiotic pill past the corner of the back of the tongue, easier said than done.
    liquid is easier but still a scratchy battle!

    Your probably correct, I was in more pain and on more meds than I thought. Cecile was not happy when I woke up just a bit ago. It seems I acted very childish and did not want him to mess with my back last night, I don't recall being a butt head about it. He just changed the bandage, said it looks much much better. My temp is still up just a bit, just a point or so. It's still his call if I will have to go see Dr. Allon tomorrow or not, I'm hoping not. My head feels like I was OD'ed on pain killers, well not OD'ed just way more than normal. I'm gonna be a good boy and sit quietly in my room and play nice today. The old man can be a arse when I'm a pain in his.

    Can I borrow him to mess with my back? I'm maxing out on my pain meds everyday.

    He's trained for some stuff Frank, I'm not sure what his certification is but it was good enough to qualify as a live in. I'm not sure what all he knows how to do, but he might be able to help. I know I'm still kicking, I really thought I was headed back to the horse spittle last night.

    I think a weekly massage would help. Loosen up the muscles.

    That sounds like what you need for sure, for me pushing on my joints just makes it seem worse. I do much better laying in a HOT tub of water. I get all loose and jelly like that way. Darn it! Bet I have to keep my back dry now. That sounded so good too, a nice hot soak.

    I'm all jelly like anyway!

    What's your weather like folks. My High today is 57F with clouds, it hit the upper 30'sF last night. Just one day ago the lows was upper 50's, this sudden change was no fun but I think my major problem was the infection not the weather.
