Ah, Kaiser.

Just got a call about my shoulder appointment for Friday. My doctor will be in surgery and they want me to reschedule. Fine. They want an afternoon appointment on the same day. Which I can do but it's a pain leaving Fresno on Friday afternoon in Yosemite traffic. The appointment nurse says they can reschedule to next week. I explain about the funeral. Then they ask if it would help if I did an appointment in Oakhurst? That would be great! They want to do it on the day of the funeral.

I schedule for the afternoon at Friday. Ten minutes later I get a call saying there has been a cancellation and they can see me at my original time on Friday morning.

Scheduling has always been, and shall ever be, a huge pain in the ass.

Good excuse to get out of the funeral, though.

Lol
Srsly that gave me a giggle
Nothing like good gallows humor


RE: I'm more broken than you - Greg - 02-05-2025

What funeral?


RE: I'm more broken than you - Dr. Ivor Yeti - 02-05-2025

And the winner is [drum roll...]

GIARDIASIS!!!!!

WTF?! I live in the goddam CITY!!! How did I get a backwoods, deer-humping, High fucking Sierra parasite ????!!!

I'm still looking svelte, though.

So antibiotics then? If so, remember what I said about probiotics afterwards.

Sounds like a severe case to have gone on so long. 

For a fleeting moment, I wondered if I had that when I had that little run of red diarrhea. Maybe I did because it was shortly after Mexico, but I drank filtered water and ate cleanly. 

Hope whatever cure course you’re on heals you quickly. Can’t have a spurting yeti, no matter how svelte.

Actually a friend of mine had it for the better part of a year. It went in waves. Flareup with explosive shitting, then nothing for a while. Then repeat. But clearly he didn't have it as bad.

I get to have my first MRI today. They want to make sure I haven't torn my rotator cuff.


RE: I'm more broken than you - Dr. Ivor Yeti - 02-07-2025

MRI's are fun! The machine makes funny noises really loud (please accept any hearing protection that they offer). The hard part is staying awake


RE: I'm more broken than you - Greg - 02-07-2025

MRI= Worst Trance Dance party ever. I did not fall asleep.

I have a torn rotator cuff that requires surgery, sooner rather than later.


RE: I'm more broken than you - Drunk Monk - 02-07-2025

Major bummer. Sorry to hear this.

Makes your TV moving all the more impressive (and dumb).


RE: I'm more broken than you - Greg - 02-07-2025

Strong like bull. Smart like tractor.

You might be confused about which TV I moved. Although it was still heavy, it wasn't my father's big screen.

Shoulder surgery in a month or so. Minimally invasive. Maximum pain. The doc says shoulder surgeries are the most painful


RE: I'm more broken than you - Drunk Monk - 02-18-2025

I thought spinal fusion was the most painful. 

Will they put you completely under for this?


RE: I'm more broken than you - Greg - 02-18-2025

I forgot to ask about whether they were going to put me under. But I hope so. It is an outpatient procedure. It takes a lot of local anesthetic to get me numb. They did say they will prescribe narcotics for me post surgery.
