Sarge. I don't understand the problems with the VA? Maybe I'm just lucky and have got petty good service. I do understand that some primary care DRs are assholes.
While at camp Shelby? See if you can go to Hattiesburg and see DR. Bowling. She has been great to me. Hearing aids, glasses. On and on. Good luck.

I didn't make t to Camp Shelby. I'm still sick but I'm better. I have an infection in my parotid glands in addition to the prostate. I'm hurting at both ends

classicman · 08-06-2011, 11:58 PM

Damn Sarge. Hang in there Bud. Thinking of you ... and no, not your prostate.

Nirvana · 08-07-2011, 09:40 AM

Wow your immune system is going haywire! I wish I was closer I would help you too Sarge.

SamIam · 08-08-2011, 11:40 AM

Hoping you're feeling better today, Sarge.

kerosene · 08-08-2011, 11:53 AM

Thinking about you, Sarge.

Big Sarge · 08-08-2011, 12:01 PM

Thanks for thinking about me. No fever and the swelling has gone down in the left cheek. Still have some drainage into the mouth from the right side

Big Sarge · 08-17-2011, 02:51 PM

I met with the VA nurse practioner in the PTSD Clinic. They've upped my meds to 80mgm of Celexa, 10 mgm of Valuim, and 2x1mgm of Xanax daily!!! Sounds like I'm going to be a zombie when the meds get here.

I've still have no updates on the tumors.....

You're not still talking about your prostate, are you?

Just joking Sarge. What with all the Valium/Xanax/Celexa, if you ain't getting better, you'll soon be feeling better, if you can remember you're ill to begin with.

Feel better dude.

Big Sarge · 08-17-2011, 11:13 PM

If I take that and chase it with a couple of mojitos, I won't give a damn about anything. Better living through pharmaceuticals. LOL

Sundae · 08-18-2011, 12:44 PM

I'd join you in the mojitos!
Fingers crossed that things start getting better for you once the juggernaut with the tablets arrives...

Big Sarge · 08-21-2011, 11:14 PM

Well, I'm having another bad night. I have taken 15mgms of hydrocodone, 2x Lunestra, .and 2x Skelaxin. I'm still wide awake. I wonder if I'll ever sleep again

Big Sarge · 08-23-2011, 09:17 PM

I've only been off antibiotics for a few days and the infections have started again. Fever is 100.4

classicman · 08-23-2011, 09:45 PM

Call the doc in the am and get another round started.?

monster · 08-23-2011, 10:48 PM
