Hey there,
In for a break finally busy morning. Celebrating Bob's anniversery with a little snowfall. Had crashes all over the place. One guy stepped out of his car in front of a semi and made some snow angels. Morning rush is over and we still have some die-hards sliding in. What's for lunch.

Greetings.

I talked to the surgeon's nurse yesterday, got a call today, MRI of left Legg tomorrow morning, see the surgeon tomorrow afternoon...sheesh.

Nothing moves that fast in our health care without it being important and that is what has me worried.

I look forward to a time when there is relief from the set backs I am encountering with this LEGG. Hopefully its all ok when I talk to the doc tomorrow.
The lymph node in my left armpit is the size of a ping pong ball and I have swelling of the ones down lower...if ya know what I mean. Speedo Zone.
Got a lump on the back of my left arm now too and one about center of my back just to the left of the spine.

Hey Buddy - - what is going on with you? Behave yourself. Not sounding good. Marian and I will be praying that the docs will locate the problems.

I was at the hospital most of the morning - - three friends in there. My buddy that counts the offering with me at church suddenly had a stroke on Saturday - - within 2 minutes he could not talk or move. Today, he was talking, walking and looking very good. Wow. Then, I worked in the yard trimming two oak trees. Did pretty good. Two days now without the statin. We will see. Talked to two more people at the hospital today that had LEGG problems along with other things that I am having while taking statins. That may be it - - I sort of hope so because we can change brands and probably get around this thing. Sure been nasty. Sooooo, Scotty - - stay on them and get better.

OK, gotta go sit with the blonde and keep her company - - she is better looking than you guys. See ya manana.
Bob

Where the lumps are is also where I sustained some very serious injuries years ago...around the same time I snapped my legg and tore off the patella and quad tendons, ligaments, and shattered the patella...etc etc.
The doc feels that these are just scar tissue/tendon/muscle and who knows what else, just like the ganglion they removed from above my knee.
Fingers are crossed.

Strokes are scary. One of the gals that works with us at events told me her husband had a stroke last week and is still in the hospital. When they ask him a question he answers them with a long series of numbers. He worked as a parts man all his life...with numbers.

I discovered something this evening.
I figured out why it takes my wife so dang long to take a shower. she was cleaning the shower when she got done washing herself. she moved everything around, washed the walls, washed the door, washed the shower head.
Turned off the water, dried off, got another towel, dried everything in the shower.
Then she tried to convince me she doesn't have OCCD.
