Operation - Caution, gross image inside
« on: April 01, 2013, 12:06:33 am »
A little over a week ago, I started getting horrible gut pains.  Then added nausea, followed by constant puking.

 Had to go to the ER.

 They believed it was a small bowel obstruction, caused from scar tissue from previous operation (gall bladder removed + belly button hernia)   They tried to get it to go away without surgery. Drove a tube down my nose, into my
stomach.  Sucked out acids and bile (disgusting & nauseating)  , waited and waited.   Nothing to eat for days.   Stuck in a room with a guy who snored like a polar bear.  Couldnt sleep at all.

 Tried to get them to do an enema.  Nobody wanted to do it. After much argument, finally get one... but its a tiny single use bottle.  Its
not enough.  They also tried suppositories... but none of them worked.    After a few days, they finally got me a large bottle enema...
and I was able to pass a lot of material.  However, they didnt let me refill it, to get more out.  I felt better... got the tube out... but
the condition returned again. 

 They almost poisoned me (allergies) with the Aspartame (artificial sweeteners) loaded fluid they needed me to drink for an MRI. 
Luckily I asked what was in it before drinking it.  After some confusion & difficulty, They finally remixed the fluid with apple juice.

 Sent me to the O.R. to get cut up.
 Woke with tube in nose, again.  Sore.  Staples in ab area.  Lapriscopy failed.
 
 Half of staples pulled out, as there was an infection starting.  Giant hole exposing innards.  Dressing must be changed 2x daily.

 Suction tube really annoying and painful.  One day, heard two distinct clunking sounds from the basin... Realized it was a cracked tooth
part, and the associated mercury filling, that Id swallowed long ago. (in my sleep i believe)

 At one point, on a sunny day, I noticed the tube in my stomach was leaking, creating a fine mist near the nose area.  Effectively, I
was breathing in waste, into my lungs!   I put a drink cup to my hose, allowing the mist to collect and form two dripping vertical
lines as proof.

 The witch nurse, called me crazy, and kept giving me a hard time, as I turned the suction machine off, refusing it until the issue was
solved.  She refused to feel the hose without gloves, nor would listen to it.  Ignored the proof on the cup.  I think this witch actually
sabotaged the hose by poking it with a fine needle, when I was sleeping.  At last, I compromised, by having her place tape on
the hose.  F/N Wench.

 Spent about 5 more days recovering.  Luckily, moved into a better quieter room, able to sleep now.

 They tried to get me to agree to this special IV nutrient mix,  that goes into the main veins / arteries.  I asked to look at the specs
of whats in it.  First paragraph, it lists its comprised of over 35% soy!  Of which Im allergic to in small doses!   God, are they
trying to kill me?!    Finally, they found a non-soy version.  But I still refused the special injection point, after the first woman couldnt
easily find a vein good enough to use.


 About 7th day, finally able to drink broth / clears...  However, the hospital has no broths that conform to my allergies!   Really?! 

Had to get friends to pickup stuff I could eat.   The nurse even accidentally brought me a sugar free jello.  Luckily, I noticed it. 
I cant seem to trust anyone about ingredients...  ugg.

 Next was solids.  Hospital has almost nothing that I can eat.  And then, they even manage to mess up and serve me things I said I shouldnt eat...  Then wonder why my bowels are still inflamed / bloated.


 After like 9 days in the hospital,  6 without food...  I finally got out of that prison cell.

 Still have this massive hole to deal with though...
Larger diameter than a golf ball.  Heh, Its just about trackball sized.


Edit:  I do have to say, only about three of the nurses were bad apples.   Everyone else was very kind and helpful.

Thanks Dave.

 Freaks me out every time I have to Change the dressing.  Still, I feel a bit better doing it myself.  The nurses often rip the old bandage out too quickly...  as well as pressing the new bandage in with too much pressure.

I'm glad your doing alright. Sucks to hear you had a bad experience with the nurses. My dad the same problem with the nurses doing the wrapping on his foot after surgery. They would just rip it off and at one point actually ripped some stitching out with it. I hope your recovery goes smoother.

If you have ever wondered what that bin is on the wall of your Doctors office...  Its the Evil Suka device.  I wish I never had to know first hand.

 The hose in the bin pic was what they started me out on.  I think it was 1/2 " diameter.  Very painful to get in.

 Later, in the nose pic,  they had me on a smaller 1/4" tube.

 You can see the amount of stuff they stuffed the hole with.   About 1/2 a roll of gauze.  A small pad, and one mega pad... with a ton of tape.

 Thanks 05SRT4.

 Hard to believe they could do such a thing.  Ugg.   It seemed like each nurse had a different method of doing things.  Almost like they got different training...  or fell asleep during classes...    Also, you cant teach morals, and being 'nice'.  Either they have it in them,
or they dont.


  One of the blood pressure guys was taking my pressure with arms that had IV's in them.   The other nurses said that your not
supposed to do that, as it can cause air to get in the lines.  >.<   

 Hard to believe I survived surgical recovery.  heh  >.<


 Ive no idea how Im gona deal with the bills..
My hours were cut back as it stood, due to lack of projects.

Great April Fools Joke X2.

If it isn't then I suggest getting on a healthy diet, instead of all that aspartame. 

Thanks for all those pictures too, it really finished off my Easter Monday lunch.  :puke 
If I had only one wish, it would be for three more wishes.

 Sadly, its no joke...  unless you consider tragedy & misery of others funny...

then I suggest getting on a healthy diet,

 Guess you need work on your reading comprehension.  Doc said it was scar tissue induced.

 I eat healthier than most people on the planet.  As Ive aged, I have developed bad reactions to:  Wheat, Soy, Dairy, Egg, and Artificial Sweeteners.   Its almost impossible to find a product that doesnt have soy in it, let alone some combination of all the above.  I pretty much cant eat out.  I have to cook nearly all of my meals from scratch.

 Wheat cases me to not absorb nutrients.
 Dairy makes me severely phlegmy.. hacking stuff up for over an hr. after consumption... dep. on quantity.
 Egg binds me up.  Inflames the bowels.
 Soy seems to be the worst for me.  It gives me a migraine so bad, Id thought about jumping off a building... 
, and no pain meds can stop it.  (I think it actually causes a brain swelling effect)

 I have a feeling, that these things are a result of modern food tampering.  Genetically modified foods, hormone loaded & pesticided product. As well as Animals bread on unnatural diets... of GMO feed.

 Ask around.  See how many people have had their gall bladders removed.  I think thats a telling sign of big trouble.
Quite scary.

Maybe. But I believe these and other problems are caused by modern medicine nullifying natural selection. The weak are kept alive longer allowing them to pass on inferior genes to the next generation. Also the reason the world is grossly over populated.

 While we may agree that there is a population issue on this planet...

 How do you know if its your degraded genes, or... if your genes have been tampered with?

 The typical package of food in USA tends to have at least 4, if not many more, ingredients that are 'man made' chemicals /chemically altered.   Paid to be pushed through the corrupted FDA... with false data, and poor testing, performed by the very people whom
seek to make profit from it.

 Our water supply in laced with mining waste.  Many of have Mercury fillings which outgas.  Chemicals seep out of the plastic cups, containers, and non-stick pans coatings... into our food & drink.

 Our food is being mixed with stuff like spider DNA, to make it secrete toxins that keep pests away.  The effects on humans, unknown in the long term.  And yet newly passed laws just put through, that states no GMO companies can be sued for health damages.

 With all of the poisoning of our biological systems going on, its no longer a question of weak -vs-  strong.  Its just a matter of time, before ALL humans suffer the same fates.

For 27 years I've been eating foods with man made chemicals, drinking water laced with mining waste, I have 4 analgam fillings, use plastic containers and cook with non stick pans.

I have zero allergies and zero medical problems. :P

Yeah, you can blame what's going into the body... But maybe it's the body the stuff is going into that is the problem... Not all life is fit to live.

 My allergies didnt really start to show till I was 30.

 27 yrs isnt a long time...  and even as you think you are fit as a fiddle, you have no clue as to what things are actually
destroying you bit by bit.    For example, its proven that certain things such as Fluoride, reduce IQ.  Maybe your smarter than the
avg bear today.. but in another 15yrs... drop down to Yogi bear level.    You also dont have any clue as to what celular and DNA damages
are being done intenally to you.   You may think you feel fine...  but then all the sudden, that can all change in the blink of an eye.

 If you think consumption of Toxins doesnt harm the 'Strong ones', your just plain lacking IQ to begin with.

 Whats worse, is that DNA damages from these toxins, translate to further damage children.  Children whom will be even weaker and
susceptible to the toxins..

 Plain and simple, no matter how tough you think you are...  if you consume enough toxins, your going to turn into a mess.

Case in point.   Go plant a garden.  Then sprinkle poisons and toxins on one side....  and organic nutrients on the other.
Which one will grow stronger, vs weaker?   Its very obvious.

First of all, Yogi IS smarter than the average bear. I just have to point out that to go from an IQ of "smarter than the average bear" to "Yogi bear level" is actually not a decrease in IQ.

Now that I solved your logic puzzle, I also have to point out the "proof that fluoride decreases IQ" is primarily based on very flawed studies done on a village in China where the fluoride level is massively more than anything you could find in the water in the US. It was only a slight difference in testing scores as well. But even disregarding that the study is flawed, I would happily sacrifice a couple IQ points in order to not have to spend my childhood in a dentists chair getting my teeth drilled and filled. I'm sure that the drilling on my skull would be killing brain cells anyway.

Look at the big picture....There is no point in history where we have been eating clean food and drinking clean water. Sure there is chemicals in our food that never were there before, but before we had those chemicals, we didn't even know that what we were eating was filled with bacteria and harmful organisms. It was common to get dysentary, cholera, [insert oregon trail disease here], etc. And if not for a number of  preservatives and chemicals, we would be dealing with famine and starvation constantly.

Even if it is a trade off, we have longer life expectancy and quality of living than ever.

I just wanted to say that while I won't read your post due to the oogie pictures that I refuse to look at more than a millisecond, I hope you are back on your feet again soon. Surgery sucks and from what I skimmed it sounds like you have been through a lot.

Hopefully you at least get a pretty badass scar out of the deal. That way when the ladyfolk see that you are as franken as your panels, you can tell them you were in a fistfight with a grizzly bear and survived by Shaolin toe-stabbing the living crap out of that bear and finishing him off with a roundhouse kick.  8)

Get well, and if you have more trouble with the nurses, pinch their ass like a dirty old man. You will get a new nurse quick. Haha. :oldman

X2- best wishes for a speedy recovery.  Good job advocating for yourself in the hospital, it's an unfortunate necessity.  In my family we have a policy of 100% advocate coverage for our kids, or adults that are not 100% lucid.  An unfortunate necessity these days.  The nurses hate anybody writing notes on their whiteboards like "latex allergy!!!!" or other annoying stuff.

Brainwash much?

 Actually, its the other way around.  De-Programming & Waking up.    Im embarrassed to think about the past, when my friends
wife claimed that eating wheat was causing her odd problems,  and me...  I thought she was full of it.    This was before Gluten
intolerance and Celiac, wasnt widely known about.    They say now, that 1 in 100 people have it.. many of which dont even know
they have it.    But is this really a disease... or is it just a consequence of the genetic changes?   More and more people
are getting adverse reactions to the stuff... and most will say that it just came out of the blue.  Their entire lives, able to eat
the stuff... and now all the sudden... cant touch it.


 Its easy to diss things and feel and think certain ways... merely cause we have not had such a thing in our experience (yet),
nor have even heard of such things from the mainstream media... or even others whom we know.

 We think we are Invincible.   We accept Poison in our lives, cause we are conditioned and raised to think its Ok.  Just accept it.
Just allow it to slowly degrade you.   We are often careless to think about our health, longevity, and Quality of life based on failing
health that will occur in the future.

 We are Ignorant and stubborn.   We think, just because we dont see any immediate reactions...  that its Ok.  That its negligible.
That we have plenty of ability to fend off the crud.     And even with Proof that finally makes it to the Surface, past the corruptions...
such as Cigarettes harmful effects on the body...  People will Still be stubborn, ignorant, and think they are Invincible to the effects.

Why aren't you growing your own crops? Raising your own herds? Hunting/gathering for youself?

 Its unfortunate, but I live in a city residence, that has very poor sun areas.  A few super tall trees in the way. High picket Fences.  Lots of shadows.  Some tall buildings.  Houses are very close to each other.  Chosen Angle of the house isnt great either.

Soil is probably loaded with lead paint from the run off as the rain hits the old house paint.   That and the city air and rain, isnt exactly
very clean.    Been thinking about moving.   Its just not possible at this time.


 But, even so, if we start to stand up for ourselves... rejecting Chemical treatments in our foods.  Rejecting man-made fats that stick to and clog up our arteries.  Rejecting the poisons and petitioning the stuff...   the quality of our lives would be much better.


 Remember the days as a kid where you could stay up for like +24hrs playing video games, then going right into school without sleep, and
still able to function?   Most of us in our 30s couldnt stay awake 24hrs.  Doing so would cause us to sleep for 2 days straight to try to recover.   This isnt just about age.  Its about a level of health and vitality, that is no longer with us... due to the toxins and degradations
we have suffered.    And as our age increases... these degradations get more rapid.  Pains, energy loss, and health problems that we
never felt, all the sudden, drop on us like a bomb.   

 We learn too late, that we were not so Invincible.  That we should have been more aware, cautious, and careful about things.
The mainstream corporations are not looking out for your health.  Nor are the corrupted govt agencies.  Its all about money, power,
and corrupted control these days.    Fat and Chemicals are cheap, and so thats why they are loaded into your foods.

 I can make dishes with almost Zero fat, have no chemicals...  and they have just as much, if not more flavor, than any commercial
Chem-Dish.   Pure and simple, its almost all about the herbal seasonings.  Not fat.  Not chemicals.


 Also note, that many things banned in other countries, still exists in USA.   And things like non-stick pan coatings, were banned from
 'future'  production... but they still Allow the remaining stock of supply to be used up first.

 BPA - Chemicals that leach out of our plastics at warm temperatures,  was quick to be dropped.  But they just switched to another
form which probably is just as bad, if not worse.   BPA has so many effects on human anaytomy, theres like 10 pages worth of data
on its various impacts.


 Anyways, Im done preaching.  Believe what you will.   Theres plenty of information out there... Good, Bad, Falsified, Over-The-Top,
and Missing / Erased.

 Its your life.   Life it as careful or carefree as you wish.   But Remember kids, it wasnt too long ago, that
Lead paint, Mercury, and Asbestos... were thought by the masses to be just fine and dandy.   How long did it take before that
changed?   How many peoples lives were impacted negatively as a result?    How many people, CEOs, Stock Holders, etc..  made massive profits at the expense of millions of suffering lives?  (That never penalized by lawsuits)   Did the US Govt., (whom probably
deemed and cleared the stuff as being publicly safe)  step in and cover medical costs?  Did they issue public apologies?  Did they compensate people?  Did they pay for its Removal?

 And when you get screwed, and if you do Sue....  and if you can win,  90% of the money just goes right into the Lawyers pockets. 
Or some mass class action suit.. which nets you a coupon for a gallon of Kool-Aid, from the company that bent you over.

All this complaining about chemicals and poisons, yet you live in a large city. So much for "waking up". The next time you're drinking a glass of clean, 100% pure water, remember... water is a chemical. If all this is such a big part of you wanting to live better, you gotta stop being scared of change, that's the only thing stopping you from moving. Either practice what you preach, or stop preaching.

I don't know why I even bother reading your posts...

For example, its proven that certain things such as Fluoride, reduce IQ.  Maybe your smarter than the
avg bear today.. but in another 15yrs... drop down to Yogi bear level.

I would happily sacrifice a couple IQ points in order to not have to spend my childhood in a dentists chair getting my teeth drilled and filled. I'm sure that the drilling on my skull would be killing brain cells anyway.

 But what IF flouride doesnt actually prevent cavities as they say it does?   Then how would you feel about dumbing yourself,
and your loved ones, down.... each day?

 Ive seen a video of a water plant where the stuff was actually Eating through the pipes!   They also had a blurb in the news about
having to Lower the level of the stuff, because it was actually Eating away childrens teeth.

 
   As wheat was inflaming my bowels, it was blocking nutrients to my body...  As such, it was creating a LOT of various issues... so it made
diagnosing things almost impossible.

 One effect, was teeth that were very yellowed and got frail.   Nails as well.  I spent several thousands of dollars fixing cavities in my 30s.
In less than 2yrs, I had to spend another several thousand.     I was brushing, flossing, using mouthwash, and more... several times
a day.... but yet my teeth were still a constant mess.

 
 When I finally made the connection, and stopped eating wheat,  I started to take calcium supplements, vitamens, and ate very
healthily.   My teeth got stronger and whiter.   Yet oddly enough... some days they were bright while,  and two days later, they looked
aweful yellow.   It turned out, that it was never the fluoride.  Nor was it my tooth care habits.    It was Nutrients.  Pure and simple.

 I remembered back to when I was like 20.  I was lazy,  Almost never brushed.  Didnt flossing.  Didnt take care of them at all.   
But even in like 7 yrs without seeing a dentists, the guy said my my teeth, besides the one that at that time, was giving me trouble... were all fine.

 Yet here I am now, and getting like 7 Cavaties in a year.


 Flouride doesnt make your teeth strong.  It does not protect your teeth.   


 Its also being Drank... so the contact that comes to your teeth is so minimal,
that its Obscene to even consider that it would be effective in that way!!!


 Would you Drink Mouthwash to keep your breath and teeth clean?!
Would you swallow tooth whitener, rather than let it sit and sink in?


 They say that you should call Poison Control if you swallow a tiny amount of toothpaste.  Yet, if you add the amount of Flouride
up thats in all the water you consume, as well as the water that gets absorbed into your skin in a shower / bath... then your
WAY over the Poision Control limit.

 Do you think its a good idea to drink Poision daily, know to be toxic and have negative effects on the human body... in
order to try to keep the teeth in order?    If you REALLY thought the stuff was effective at tooth decay prevention...
then why not bottle it, then apply it via paste or mouthwash... where you can SPIT IT OUT, rather than DRINK IT?!  Its not
right to Force me, and others whom dont want that Toxic crap in our systems.. to have it FORCED upon us.

 The whole thing is Downright Absurd.

 But I know, you, like anyone else... will defend it... because you were brought up believing the stories.
Its ingrained.  Its deep seatedly programmed into us.   Hard to face the very idea, that it could all be a harmful sham...
A mass betrayal.  Cant be so.  I refuse to accept that... I will attack and mock all whom believe otherwise...



 If you want your kids to have strong teeth... give them a good diet with plenty of nutrients and natural calcium.

 The waste from mining, Flouride, is banned in many places already.   Take a stand and push for its total ban.

Look at the big picture....There is no point in history where we have been eating clean food and drinking clean water.

 Come on man.  Be real.    If you row out to a remote island, you may actually find an area in this world which has such clean and clear
water, that you can see right to the bottom of a deep pool.    Yet, you get anywhere near modern terratory... and the water has an
icky color to it.  Polluted.

 Back as early as 200yrs ago, food, water, soil, and Air quality,  were maybe 20x as clean and free of pollutants.   There were no
man-made artery clogging fats.  No chemicals in the foods, that gave you cancer.  The soil wasnt loaded with chemical fallout from Kodaks Somkestacks.  (which Ive seen take paint off newer cars, that parking lots next to the buildings)

 There wasnt plastic bottles that leached into what you drank, causing Thyroid and Hormonal problems.

 If you caught and ate a Fish from the Ocean or Lake, you didnt have to worry about it being loaded with Mercury.  (All those broken Flourescent light tubes, leaching it into the ground water, and into the ocean, and then the fish...  )

 Drinking water you got was almost always boiled clean, to get rid of parasites.   There wasnt a chemical toxin mixed into it on purpose!
Natural Spring water, was actually healthy.  Again... no chemical rain to drop into the grounds and waters... to wreck it.

 Even modern plants, as far as Ive heard.. dont filter out pharmaceutical contaminates.   Which means, you could be on Meds
that effect you in a negative way... just by drinking from the tap.    And what about that Chlorine?  Cant imagine its good to be
swallowing all that either.   The city water Reeks of it.  Tastes horrible.

Sure there is chemicals in our food that never were there before, but before we had those chemicals, we didn't even know that what we were eating was filled with bacteria and harmful organisms.

  You cant compare improper / ignorant  food handling that caused Bacteria..   
To intentional forced chemical poisoning.  Of gambling your health, on a whim...   
cause you want to shave a few calories,  make the food a different color...  or use cheaper ingreedients at the expense of
artery clogging.    Thats just way over the top man, and not even comparable.   Your attitude is that you think its ok for now, so just be
quiet.  Your saying, just be glad you are not from a more ancient time when you could have died sooner.   But thats not the correct
attitude, IMO.

And if not for a number of  preservatives and chemicals, we would be dealing with famine and starvation constantly.

Well, my argument wasnt about Preservatives.  However, even without them... the world can operate fine.  Many foods are frozen.  Most fresh foods are eaten fresh, before they rot.  Fresh Meats often cant even stay on the shelves, and anything not moving, is sold off
at a sale price.   So where are all the preservatives?   In packaged foods.  Typically, the chemical garbage and junk foods.  In horrible
Canned foods... Cans that are laced with and leach BPA.   Even taste canned Carrots?  Absolutely Disgusting.  When something doesnt
taste like its supposed to...  you know theres a problem!

 No, we wouldnt starve if Preservatives were gone.
 No, we wouldnt miss Chemical cancer causing, DNA changing, Body Chemical / Hormonally Altering...   Laden foods.
 No, we wouldnt miss GMO  "russian-Roulette"   crops.


 Btw - Did you know that they recently discovered that Garden tomatoes taste much better than Grocery store Tomatoes?   
The reason?   Turns out that when they made their Mods, they didnt copy over a gene that deals with producing sugar.   So the GMO tomatoes have almost no flavor...  and who knows what over effects they have on the human body, due to alterations...

 Ever see a Giant star fruit?   I tasted one once.  Horrible.  Probably changed the genetic code for the size... but sadly, the taste
suffered as a result.  It was as bland as water.    Thats the problem when you try to play God... and dont really know what your doing.

Even if it is a trade off, we have longer life expectancy and quality of living than ever.

 I dont know about that.  Autism is at an alltime high.   Health issues are so rampant, that theres some form of medical center,
every 2 miles apart.   Its getting downright ridiculous. 

 They tell you to call the EPA if you drop a Mercury bulb in your house, for a special expensive cleaning process..  but somehow, its
Ok to pump an Immunity shot filled with over 1000x the safe mercury levels for a full grown Adult, into a tiny Baby...!   Do you really
think thats right?!   Does that even make any Sense at all?!


 Quality of life?   Thats hard to quantify.  These days, people dont even have time to talk to each other face to face.
There seems to be less and less emotion.  Less and less care.  Less and less morality.  More brutality.  More crime.  More ignorance. Less Love. More Selfishness.  More cynicism. More Corruption. Overcrowded Prisons.  More and more being built every day...

 Less attention, direction, guidance, and support... given to our children.  People worshiping the TV media like Zombies, copying whatever they see on it.   Be it fashion, attitudes, word phrases... ect.    Its downright scary... when crooked  $$stock-controlled$$  TV programming, is now what leads a countries people, and its beliefs.

 And all the while, the top  1% richest in the world, whom own 80% of the entire worlds wealth... using their money, power, and stocks in every industry... to take over the entire world, and its leaders... bit by bit.    Behind the Creation of laws such as the recently passed 'You cant Sue a GMO crop seed company, for its negative health impacts'. 

 Also most likely behind the arcade game:  Target Terror...  a game used to influence kids & teens, that any American can be a Terrorists.. and then desensitize them, to shooting and killing them.   Insane, and so very blatant.


 Its getting downright scary,  As well as Infuriating.

 I do believe in Reincarnation... and honestly, I cant imagine being born into the next Lifetime on this Earth.  If I had the choice, Obviously Id opt back to the 80s at minimal  heh   But seeing where all this is heading?   It seems like its gona get even more ugly around here soon...

I just wanted to say that while I won't read your post due to the oogie pictures that I refuse to look at more than a millisecond, I hope you are back on your feet again soon. Surgery sucks and from what I skimmed it sounds like you have been through a lot.

Hopefully you at least get a pretty badass scar out of the deal. That way when the ladyfolk see that you are as franken as your panels, you can tell them you were in a fistfight with a grizzly bear and survived by Shaolin toe-stabbing the living crap out of that bear and finishing him off with a roundhouse kick.  8)

Get well, and if you have more trouble with the nurses, pinch their ass like a dirty old man. You will get a new nurse quick. Haha. :oldman

 Hehe.   Thanks Vigo.

 I already got a massive Scar across the bottom of my neck from when they removed a nodule on my Thyroid.   Looks like I was cut up in a gang battle.   >.<     ugg.       Pretty soon its gona look like someone stuck me in a dryer full of rocks and knives.   heh

 The Ole Dirty Pinch Move..   Man, I wish Id thought of that!   lol
Could have blamed the Meds too.    ;D

X2- best wishes for a speedy recovery.  Good job advocating for yourself in the hospital, it's an unfortunate necessity.  In my family we have a policy of 100% advocate coverage for our kids, or adults that are not 100% lucid.  An unfortunate necessity these days.  The nurses hate anybody writing notes on their whiteboards like "latex allergy!!!!" or other annoying stuff.

 Thanks TopJimmy.

    Never thought about writing on the whiteboard.  Nice  :)

 Luckily, the good Nurses outnumbered the Bad.  Some really great people there to help me out.
Hopefully my hours pick up so I can try to crawl out of the new pile of debts.   >.<


 Feeling much better now that Im free.   Still soar in the midsection.   Pain meds help, but are running low.  Getting a little worried about
that.  Changing the dressing is my least favorite thing to do.  The smell of the huge wound isnt the nicest either.  Ugg.   Its not infected... its just the way it is.

 House-Nurse that dropped by to check in on me today was really cute... but she had a ring on. 
Bright Red hair, some interesting piercings.  Cute voice too.   Ahh well,  nice eye candy anyways.    :)

I could never stay up 24 hours and then go to school.  My body was never designed to do that at any point.  Not when I was young, not in my 20s when I tried to pull a closing shift followed by an opening shift at McDs, and not now.  Some people could.  I couldn't.

Your teeth could be weak.  My wife has, up until now, brushed her teeth for no more than 30 seconds once a day, maybe twice.  This kind of irked me.  I have to do mine for no less than 2 minutes twice a day, plus floss and rinse once a day.  So far, since I've adopted that regimen, I've not had a cavity.  She, however, JUST had her first a few months ago.  I think age finally caught up to her teeth.  This is definitely one reason you're having more troubles as well, so it's not just the stuff you're eating.

Everyone's different, just as it's been mentioned numerous times.

 Heh.  She did..  But it wasnt so enjoyable.  She was more gentle than the others though.  :)

 Well, as Ive said..  Some days my teeth are super white and strong.  Yet a few days later, they may look translucent and yellowed, and weak.   Another week later they may be sparkling white again.  This behavior isnt based on my tooth care, because I Never alter it.  Always the same routine.

 Its a combination of what nutritious things Ive ate, as well as what bad things I may have ate, which block the nutrients absorption.
After my discovery of this, Id found people on youtube talking about the very same thing..  re- nutrients / teeth.

 I Doubt a Tooths age has anything to do with its strength.    Just as your bones at age 25 could be weaker than a 50 yr old Martial Artists whom conditions (bashes)  his bones often  (creating a higher bone density).

 The Bodys age however, can effect things.  For example, the bodies efficiency may get worse as you age,  increasing healing times, as well as maximum performance reductions.

Dude, that SUUUUUCKS. Like really. Sucks. Big time. doesn't seem to matter what you do these days.

 Tell me about it.  heh.    What can we expect though?   First we are injected with Mercury as babies.  Then get Mercury tooth fillings on
top of that.  As kids, we are tempted by a clown to eat garbage foods.  Many of us breathing in 300 noxious chemicals from 2nd hand smoker parents.  Then you go to school, and they serve you lunches of the worst quality, with 85% grease and fat.  (& u wonder why so many kids have bad Acne break outs?)  You grow up, and go to work...  and the only places to get lunch are "Heart Attack Express", and  "Artery Clogger Buffet".  And all the while your breathing in toxins daily, in the heavily polluted air.  (and my god, Imagine being reincarnated growing up in Beijing!  Hard to believe anyone can breath at all over there)

 With all these poisons, poor eating habits, and lack of good exercise... biological degradations are to be expected.  No matter how good
of a fighter your body is,  eventually,  it will weaken under the strains, Corruption & Damages.  Most especially around middle age, when
the body naturally starts to weaken.

 Heh.  Thanks lilshawn  :)


   Its starting to get smaller.  But the odd thing Im dealing with now, is the suitures.  They are popping up out almost an inch out of the
hole.  They are difficult to press into the wound, and try to pack the bandage over and around them.  Nobody mentioned this when I
was learning how to change the dressing.

 Whats worse, is that the 1" wide bandage I need...  The house nurses dont seem to carry, and cant get a hold of.   They have
tried to give me like three different options so far, and none of them work. 

 One gauze pad, was so big  6x7" ... it stuck out 2" above the wound!   The 2" square pads, kept falling out.   They had me cut
down a 3" wide roll, but that resulted in the bandage edge fraying... and leaving threads inside me...  that I later had to pull out with
a tweezer.  ugg.

  Tried to call the hospital today, and get the gauze directly.  They then proceeded to try to call the home nurse, which I
explicitly explained that they cant get what I need.    :banghead:     They tell me some will get back to me.   That was 2hrs ago.
I should have changed the dressing about 4 hrs ago...

I brush my teeth more times a day than most people lie to their denstists say they do. I still had issues. I spoke at length with a practitioner and she said people can actually get resistant bacteria that causes cavities from other people. (from kissing eew... sharing food, etc.) she suggested a few changes to my routine and a specific type of mouth rinse without alcohol and a toothpaste that didn't contain this chemical. Things are way better now.

i guess the particular chemical (along with alcohol and other things) is responsible as a foaming agent in them and it's not only bad for you, but doesn't kill bacteria like this resistant one and actually makes the problem worse since it now doesn't have to compete with other bacteria for food. Companies continue to use it because it's cheap.

I'll find my notes as to what it is/they are and post them up.
