Update: Stuff, and things.

They took 7 vials of blood a couple of days ago. Tests. I had been very fortunate to find a GP who was the perfect fit for me of “answering questions” and “listening to possible symptoms”. She spoke clearly (my hearing is compromised when it comes to speech). It was a great start ... til she got COVID

She disappeared and for months I couldn’t get updates other than she wasn’t back yet. Then came my late night trip to the ER. To follow up I needed a new GP. Well, I found a Nurse Practitioner who we swear is a clone of the GP. I am pickled tink! Yay. And this new to me NP is thorough. (Sorry for all the others with compound fractures in the waiting room).

Well, we’ve got tests now, by Golly. AND the Doc we loved is back too, in the background somewhere. Yay again.

I’m hoping things will begin to sort out. I know it’s been hard to follow. But it has been a real trip for me. I’ve worked absolutely every hour I was fit.

I thought I’d post this update. And a reminder: I remember every minute of the 60’s. I didn’t sky dive. Swim with Great Whites. Etc. Whatever ruined my health was most likely some Secret Spy Guy blow dart to the back of my neck. Such is the nature of mysteries. I hope the tests find something treatable. Some of my symptoms are worrisome. I’d appreciate a quick prayer.

Thanks for reading.
Blessings

I pray that your new NP/ GP will be able to diagnose some of the problems and get you on the road to recovery !
Keep the faith and stay safe.

Thank you Bob.

I regret how my myriad issues effected my career. That’s what makes up a “life” isn’t it.

Always great to see your name here.

Blessings
