My ills seem pretty minor compared to other folks on here. I still have a rough prostate infection. They gave me a shot of rocephin and put me on doxycycline. I've been on antibiotics since Feb. Talk about staying sick at my stomach!
Had my eyes checked at the VA. While my vision has worsened, there is no change to my peripheral vision. That's good. I have another MRI scheduled for Wednesday.

Went to Urology and I still can't shake my prostate issues. I finally get to see endo next week & they are supposed to assess growth and treatment changes/options. Two days after that I go back to Camp Shelby for awhile. I know I'm too sick, but I need the money & my unit really tries to look out for me.
I feel more & more like my back is up against the wall

that is a terrible feeling Sarge. I'm saddened to hear you feel that way, and that sucks about your health issues.
Moving forward, and surrounding yourself with your supportive friends is a good move. Makiing things better for your head makes things easier on your heart and on your body. Good luck man.

I am sorry you are going through this, Sarge. The med issues just suck. I hope you have some success with the endo and can start feeling better.

Sarge: You know how I feel about you going to Camp Shelby, but I also understand love of a parent. Just remember to take care of yourself.

Try to avoid pushing yourself over the edge, man. At some point they're going to figure out you're too sick anyway, and you'll have to come up with another plan. Surely you have at least some level of pension built up by now, right?

horrible day. pain and swelling, even a low grade temp. it is so bad i considered trying to get to the VA emergency room, but it is almost 2 hours away. i'm trying to hold out till i go to endo on tuesday.
i have to admit my stuff is minor compared to busterb, mtp, and others here. i don't see how they manage so well. even the percocet just barely takes the edge off.

Sarge, I don't know if you're a prayerful fellow, but I'll throw a few your way.
Good luck, man.

Oh Sarge, I'm so sorry to hear that.
Could someone else drive you to the emergency room? This doesn't sound like something you should be going through alone. I don't do prayers, but my thoughts are with you, for whatever that's worth x |
