Another September Morning.....

Hmmm, that almost sounds like the title to a song...don't believe it was though. Maybe it should be...the song of how literally crappy I have been feeling this past week with another of my "episodes".

Yep, it happened again, it started last Sunday and then Monday cranked up and I had all the typical stuff and was particularly hard hit with vomiting this time. From Monday through Wednesday I had 5 bouts of vomiting and it was just stomach bile.
Between that, no sleep, diarrhea, slight headache, not being able to eat for the week, I ended up feeling like hell.

My wife and I decided enough was enough....I have felt a long time ago, that I just don't think these episodes are "migraines" like I've been supposedly diagnosed with...there is something else going here..

My wife called me new family doc and got me an appointment for the past Friday. I was finally feeling well enough to get out to go plus if there is something going on, I might still have a bit of it in my system. So, we went and talked to doc and they took blood and I did a urine sample. We'll see if that tells anything.
Otherwise, doc wants me to get to a gastro doc and start there. So, I'll be making an appointment and at least see what happens with that.

I have to do something, I cannot continue on with these too much longer...I am flat on my back for up to 5 days.
That pisses me off to no end.
I get so completely weak from not eating and that compounds the problems with healing back to normal.
If it weren't for these "episodes" I could almost just about manage the TM situation without too many problems...At least my wife and I could make some sort of plans once in awhile.

So, we'll see what the blood tests and urine sample brings back....if anything. Otherwise, I'll update again after I see the gastro doc...

TM wise, the cooler weather is already bringing in the stiff legs and nerve pain....dammit. Woke up this A.M. and they are aching like a sunnofabitch...

For a little music....I have to post this only to keep the thought of some sunshine alive....today is a cold, overcast, drizzly day here in N.E. Ohio.
This is a beautiful song first off....I've always loved George and this also has Pete Ham playing with him. Pete Ham was with the incredible group Badfinger. George and Pete were very good friends and George actually played the slide guitar part on Badfingers song, Day After Day.

With that aside...the video...George Harrison and Pete Ham at the Concert for Bangladesh playing Here Comes The Sun...


Till Next Time......
