Title: I'm Backkkkkk!!!!
Post by: Carolina Boy on April 20, 2009, 06:22:19 PM
Had a little problem with the neck and have been flat on my back for a while. Scared me half to death. Seems I had a small leak of spinal fluid. Major headache. They had me laying down, head down and pumped fluids for a week. Got back home last night.

I'M BACK!!!!!!

Glad to hear you are still with us! Medical problems really blow.

What caused the fluid leakage?

I am glad to be back, yall. The leak, they told me was from being rubbed so long before the operation. It was just a weak place. They got me all fixed up and I am ready to get back on my little baby in the yard!!!!

Ok, let get back to work, our Pintos need us!!!

Alive and kickin'

Ditto.

      I wondered what had become of you. Between my own Pinto fever and Knotts Fever it's a wonder I know up or down! lol. Sorry about your setback, but I'm glad you're on the mend. Give all the Fur Kids a pat (yes your warhorse too!)  :tgif:  Thank Goodness Illness Finished!

Glad to hear everything turned out good for you CB, sorry to say I didn't notice you were missing...because I was flat on my back in the hospital as well dealing with my own medical mishap!  :P
Now, as far as people missing, anyone know where Discolives78 has been hiding? I just figured out he's been gone since April 12th! Did I read somewhere that he was going to Knott's? Becky, Kim, what did you girls do with poor ol' Chuck??  ???

Chuck couldn't make it to Knotts. I talked to him through PM just before Knotts. He was ok then, but I haven't heard from him since then. He may be having internet problems, so that could be why we havn't seen him lately!

Not meaning to hijack your thread, but last Monday (4-13) this stupid diabetes I'm afflicted with tried to take my life again!  >:( Sunday night before bed I check my glucose and its perfect, 116, I hit the sack and somehow (Drs. still don't know why) about 4AM my sugar dropped and I'm in a diabetic coma! Well, God decided it's not quite my time to go so He wakes up wifey-poo from a deep sleep, she decides something ain't quite right and tries to wake me up. I'm not in the wakin' up mood and proceed to have a full-blown siezure.  :cheesy_n: A shot with a glucose gun, a trip to the ER in the Band-Aid Buggy, and three hours later I wake up in the hospital goin' "What th'.... ???" "Where th'.... ???" So anyhow, I'm on the mend, feel pretty good now, aches and pains from the siezure are going away, even piddled with the Pinto a little tonight!  :)

Thanks to my extended Pinto family! Been a diabetic since I was a kid, (32 years now) and this is the worst episode ever! I'm in the process of getting a new insulin pump, this one has a real time glucose monitor that updates every 5 minuets and sets off an alarm if things get out of range. Just have to convince the insurance company to pay out 8 grand!
No offense taken CB, it's all in good fun!!  :lol:
Becky, somehow I knew you were behind Chuck's disappearance!!  :D
Thanks for the offer to help out Dwayne, I'm doing pretty good by now. However, my car does need to be washed and waxed.... ;D
HEY! CB, did David just call us old farts?! Why, you just wait 'till we get out of the geriatric ward and we get our walkers all tuned up we'll make a trip to west by-gawd viginny and and and......what was I talkin' bout again??!!  ???  :lol:  :lol:
