Ekona Posted March 26, 2017 Author Share Posted March 26, 2017 How the hell did I miss that, post of the year! :lol: Was def morphine withdrawal (I had no idea how close morphine and heroin are, as in once they're in the body they're identical!), but the IV antibiotics were vile as well. The second lot I was on made everything smell and taste like burning plastic. Pleasant. Am now home and on two lots of oral antibiotics instead, which don't have the plasticky taste but do still give me the night sweats which is lovely. Feel sick 24/7, although I am eating vaguely normally again now. All in all I'm a little fed up with this now, truth be told. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldel Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Fantastic - if you can write such in such comedic way whilst being ripped inside out mate you should be able to do it for a living! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudman Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Well its 18:46 in Port Moresby and been reading this in the bath on my IPad and without doubt one of the most entertaining threads I have read for yonks. 9 pages of pure gold. Glad to hear the father is now doing well albeit a few kilos lighter. From a person who's had 3 sets of kidney stones over the years I truly sympathise but as the old adage goes, don't laugh if it hurts too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrt Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Genuinely sympathise with you Dan....currently recovering from a AAA operation after 12 hours surgery and now 8 weeks later only just getting my bowels in order. Talk about a submarine...I, ve had a fleet of them.....mind you ..some had whiskers and could have been baby seals. Makes you realise how important your health is ....good luck with your recovery Dan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted April 2, 2017 Author Share Posted April 2, 2017 Cheers guys Saw the surgeon yesterday, sadly my op to remove the gallbladder won't take place until after Le Mans now, which is a bit of a pain as eating healthy there is not the easiest thing to do. Still, it's the right move long term so can't complain, and at least I'll be ok for my trip to Florida later this year. The infection seems to have gone now mostly, so there's no pain anymore. Trouble is, after three weeks in bed I'm exhausted just doing simple things like walking to the hairdresser (5 mins away!) so need to build my fitness up again. However, I have lost 8lbs over that time period (not including The Turd From Hell) so swings and roundabouts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fodder Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Sounds good progress made. Fingers crossed you don't have a flare up before the op! Mine would get more frequent and last longer as I said earlier in the thread. Oh and walk to the 'hairdressers'?!? What's wrong with the good old barbers and a number 1 crew cut? :lol: P.s I actually do go to a barbers but definitely wouldn't have a crew cut as I'd look like a cross between a football hooligan and uncle fester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted April 2, 2017 Author Share Posted April 2, 2017 It's a number 2 I have, close enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fodder Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 It's a number 2 I have, close enough I very nearly put that but with your recent issues I thought it may be a bit insensitive 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well now I'm just paranoid as f*ck, thanks mate I do have four holes in me when I was expecting three. Apparently the surgeon nicked a blood vessel by my belly button that was leaking blood all surgery before he realised, so then had to go back and clear all that up.
