Well, it's hard for me to keep up on here since I spend most of my time at work. (I'm a route manager for Schwan's) There were quite a few posts added today... still trying to read them all.

Don't worry about it too much or you'll find yourself going

Ok I am gonna get as comfy as possible in this heat and with the sore shoulders (arthritis for those who forget)

HUbby --John has been ill for a LONG time now. We have no idea what, why or where to turn now. He coughs and clears his throat constantly. We went to the local cough clinic (yes they do exsit) We went many times for over an hour each time. Took us an hour to drive there in wicked traffic to a downtown hosptial.
Doc finally agreed that he did not have breathing problem but maybe cough is from reflux. SO put him on 2 types of pills. One he takes twice daily and it costs $2.00 each outta our pocket. the other he takes two of 4 times daily. Luckily they are covered by our Provincial Drug plan (we make such little money and I take SOOO much meds that they cover most "usual" one) When these did make not much difference, lucky guy got to wear a tube up his nose down his gullet for 24 hours. It had a walkman sized pack that was strapped to his chest. Every time he coughed or burped or "TRIED" to eat there were buttons to press each for whatever he had done. POOR guy I couldn't drive him back to hosptial to have it removed due to the severe panic attacks I get even thinking about driving. Turned out he has gastric reflux -- but not normal kind. He keeps coughing up BILE oooh so gross eh? 2 options:these wickly expesive meds or surgury on his throat. Can't do that though cause he is teacher at local college and they can't say wheather or not he would be able to talk the same after.

Sounding good so far? Next comes the hard part to even think or talk about. Men might wanna cross your legs when you read this. 6 years ago he had to have surgery for Testicialur Tortion (i'm more than likely not spelling that right) Doc went in and STAPLED them to his ?? i don't even know what. Within 6 months we knew something wasn't right with all that dwells down south <wink> We went back and the stupid doc grabbed him and pushed and pulled till I saw tears in John's eyes. He then told him, nope everything is well .. you just have a low tolerance of pain. NOT this man burn the skin off the back of his hand and barely whined. Doc said take tylenol or ibruphen as often as needed and BUCK UP. Well lets just say that it is good thing we don't want anymore kids. Just not a chance of even TRYING. I let him go to bed before me so neither of us feel so bad.

Fast forward to 2 weeks ago. He went in for day surgery for scopes of BOTH ends to check out things since he has now begun to bleed from other place (get my drift?) That was non-conclusive. SO back to idiot doc who grabbed and suqeezed even HARDER this time -- John was black and blue within a few hours of returning home. On the 11th of August he is to have another round of day surgery to check his BLADDER -- just imagine how they are getting there OUCH.

Sigh, phew I think I am done for now. oh that and just waiting on results on a few tests performed on me last week too

I can't believe that in this day and age your DH has to go through all this. I don't know what to say except I will keep you both in my prayers and hope that the Aug.11th dr.'s appointment brings you some sort of answers and a end in sight.

 

[stinkerbelle's mom]

Jacqueline, OMG I'm so sorry for you & your dh. I will certainly keep you both in my prayers. Btw, my dh's name is John too!

Oh my oh my oh my... my thoughts (gulp) are with you... BOTH!! Doesn't it figure everything goes at once? My dad has usually been a healthy ox kind of person but for some reason last year everything happened at once. 3 strokes, heartattack, shoulder surgery, knee surgery, prostate cancer, polyps in the colon, etc, etc... bad year for my father, and he almost completely lost his voice due to the tube during ONE of his surgerys, that was 8 months ago and it's still barely there....

And that whole thing about Dr.'s grabbing and making people cough makes me happy that I'm a girl!!

good luck... and it looks like no bike rides for you in the future...

The verbage was basically about the first case in our county ever being reported and that said child had been playing with dead rabbits.

My boys did pick up some baby bunnies early in June (probably were still alive but froze stiff from fear). That incident was so long ago it is way outside of the incubation period. We think he either got it from a bug bite or from the wound he had on his leg could have gotten infected from the sand box or something if their was bacteria there. I think the health department really didn't want to have pandemonium of a case of unknown cause so it was easier to blame him by saying he was playing with dead rabbits. Kind of po'd about it though still.

Oh! Gotcha!
Well...that stinks.
You are right, though, if his name wasn't mentioned, then anyone who would know him would probably call and get the truth from you.

If anyone deserves a trip to see Mickey, it's you and your family!!!
