Injury/Medical Issues Part 1

Ambien - First off, I am NEVER taking that stuff again. I got up out of a dead sleep ate a huge amount of food, then began to get into my truck and act as i am driving away. Thank goodness I woke up before i hit the ignition........That stuff is EVIL Sauce.

My Back - My back is feeling a bit better. NO more oxycodone or Muscle Relaxer, and I am ok with that. I need to free my brain clouds and get with the program of a normal nights sleep, not a messed up sleep involving slurred phone calls etc...

ER Visit #2 - So today I found myself back in the ER with a Serious Migraine Headache (Motrin 600) actually kicked that baby so i am good there. Then the continuation of my leg issue. Swelling and puffing along my ankles, legs, knees all the way up to my hip bone and down to my toes. Gout attacks ruin my once soft feet, now they are old and cracked , that of a statue falling to the weather. My nerves hurt, i cannot sit long, stand long or lay down long, i am up and down, up and down. I take 2 water pills, and potassium, so I piss 6 times a day, try sleeping then, try it try it. Now after some blood work showing high sugar and lower potassium, the potential for being a diabetic is in the air, and I am not happys. Scared i am not either, but I am not happy. PS 3 more days out of work, my bank account hates me, it is drained.....

Morning PLan - Seeing the Local doctor right in the morning to go over what medicine i need and what may be hindering me. Blood work again fasting (no food for 12 hours) to check for sugar which was high before and to do a few other checks on other things. I am falling apart my friends......save this mango..............

Long Update - A Bit about me on TCC

Hello Friends,

My Buddy wax wombat and Myself belong to www.tradingcardcentral.com. Here is a short rant that I posted there which I will now post here. Enjoy the ride and eat a mango..........

______________________________________________________________________

Part One - My Re-introduction to you guys here on Tcc. Yes my friends it has been almost 3 years since I have been a member here on TCC. YOu all remember (some of you anyway) that I started off as Johnny Mofo. Some felt that to be a bad name so a new mango was born - Johnny Number 5. Here i sit, closing on 800 Transactions and 20,000 Posts, and loving this community every day. At times there are challenges that make me not even want to collect, but , overall, it is worth it. Fact #1 - Trading Sports cards has helped me kick my addiction to Alcohol for quite a few years now. I am proud of this. Fact #2 - ALl my bkb is for sale, so come buy some. I collect Current Roster and Current Roster Saints. I am good on trade bait, unless i get into one of those moods. Take Care

Part Two - My Job I work at a Job Corps facility in Upstate NY and my main goal is to "Model, Mentor and Monitor" the students. They are from all walks of life, NYC, Upstate, Jersey, small suburban towns, men, women, children from ages 16-26, I am there to help them. My title is Residential Advisor, and honestly, I love my job. It is funny how we teach these people how to make more than us when they graduate though, but cap and gown day, or award assemblies, trophy days, they make me proud. A student showing me a Tabe Gain, GED Certificate, or trade completion cannot compare to any amount of cash in the world. This job also comes with stress, violent behaviors ,cursing, vulgarity, or perhaps a little swing or two at times. I get stressed out, I get mad, I am human. THe drive home gets faster and faster depending on how my day went. O well, More later J5
