Flatulence.


No kidding!!! OMFG... yesterday I was at the mall, accompanying a young tart for shopping purposes and it just kept on coming!!! I'm amazed that I didn't float away with all the gas that bottled up inside of me!

Now today, I've taken TWO GIANT dumps and still the gas keeps on. I thought it was fun at first, but this is just getting a bit nuts!

I'll be 37 on Friday and luckily haven't had any health problems other than stress related neck and upper back pain.

1) Ripped ligaments and herniated discs in my back and back hurts during very damp weather
2) Left ankle sprained twice in one year
3) Right ankle had chipped bone and also hurts during very damp weather
4) Frost bite on both hands from 21 years ago causing 'alligator skin' every time there's a cold snap to the point where my hands bleed
5) Overweight
6) High blood pressure which is fortunately under control with diet, drugs and exercise.

Otherwise, I'm cranky and doing just fine.

I'm 36 in about a month.

At around 28-ish I fragmented a disk in my lower back and eventually had the broken parts (that were dancing on my spinal cord causing untold pain and weird issues) surgically removed. (They left the two herniated disks above and below alone. Thanks doc!) It's better, but it's not good and is the source of some pain.

At 33 I had gout. Fucking gout. (I think it's flaring up again...)

Chronically tired, though that could come from being the parent of a four-year-old.

A few breaks and near-breaks here and there. Chronic Asthma. PTSD. Schizoid/schizotypal (not schizophrenic - there's a difference). Creaky aching joints.

Ahhh, the good life.

Yikes. PTSD. It is terrible how things can stick with you. I hope you are getting help with that.

A year ago or so I had shingles. That was fun. Thankfully, it was mild.

Shingles. I love the sound of that. I know it is supposed to be painful. But is sounds cute.

i've lost about 15lbs and my knee is starting to sing. it's funny, you'd think that being heavy would bother it more than losing the weight. Not in my case... the weight was keeping the knee together. Now that's starting to unload a little, when it rains or gets cold, it's a big bag of fuck you. When i was doing all these so-called 'extreme' sports back in the day, no told us that when you approached middle age that all these broken/sprained bones would come back to haunt you. Every fucking broken bone sings... on top of that, my depression is just getting worse and worse. There isn't a minute of the day I don't think about blowing my fucking head off. It's non-stop... all day long, i have these fucking macabre fantasies of how I would do myself in... this week, it's pills and a bottle of Jack Daniels.

People laugh and go how dramatic... it's not dramatic when its happening to you. I manage to keep the reins of rationality on myself, but man, it just weighs you down. Did you know that the majority of people who attempt suicide really are doing it for attention. They know that someone is going to stop them from dying. That's why they always call someone and them 'goodbye'. It's the hardcore disturbed motherfuckers that just say fuck it and start singing the gun in mouth blues. No warning. No note. No phone calls. Just BANG and you're out of the blue and into the black.

i've always been a bit mental. I saw a therapist for over eight years, from 13 to 21. Did no real good. I still had a temper and penchant for self-destruction. It wasn't until back in 2002 or so that when I went back to see a therapist, she figured out what the fuck was wrong with me. So, in keeping in the fine tradition of American medicine and psychiatric care, they put me on anti-depressants that did dick. They made me nuttier if anything... the last shit they had me on started me hearing voices... wow. That shit went in the garbage and I decided that I would look after my own self. I figure that if I can keep some weird objectivity on my depression, I could hang on to it.

I've gotta tell you, folks... every day is a challenge to just keep it together. It never gets easier and people who never experienced anything like it sneer and always offer the ever inspiring addage, 'cheer up you depressing fuck'.
thanks.

i talk too fucking much here.

Sam, I'm sure I'm not helping much either. Trust me. I've got my own 50lb bag of shit happening right now, on top of 11-7 this week and after two days off, it looks like I get 10 more shitty fucking days of it too starting next Tuesday.

I just can't do the things I used to anymore. I turned 35 last weekend and it seems like my body decided to just give up this week. My ankle's grinding worse than usual, swollen, aching like a toothache and I need to make a doctor's appointment. As much as I don't want to. The doc will probably put me off work for a while and insist I have surgery. Right now, it's not a good time to do this because the company is threatening to cut people loose that are on the Sickness and Accident policy for too long. S and A is a policy that IP carries on it's employees that pays roughly 400 dollars a week if you can't work for some reason.

If I ended up going through with the surgery, I could be off for up to six months and possibly be unable to do the job I'm classified on for good because the surgery I need doesn't always work. Often it leaves the ankle joint frozen or fused. Every case I've seen locally has led to this condition.

I don't even want to talk about the fact that this other dumb condition I have is driving me nuts too. Sam knows about it, it just makes everything 10 times as bad and when I'm on night shift, if my routine gets fucked up, I'm useless for a few days.

Ok I have gone and done it now. I have had issues with my C5 and C6 vertebrae for a few years. Mild pinched nerves that get better with heat and cold and maybe a few trips to the chiropractor. The other night at work I get sharp pain in my neck and shoulder blade all the way down my left arm. My middle 3 fingers went numb. After being out of work for 2 1/2 nights it got so bad I had to go the the emergency room. Well they think I might be having a heart attack, possibly fluid around my lungs and of course could be a pinched nerve in my neck.

The doc comes in and tells me good news, my heart and lungs look great. Bad news, my neck looks like that of a 70 year old woman. 2 destroyed disks and the vertebrae is coming in right behind. The spine doctor is now saying that we can try injections again but is recommending surgery. Wonderful, I work as a press operator and just got hired permanent in February. Now to see if I can keep this thing calmed down for about a year or I will get canned for sure. It's official, I am old and now I am feeling it .
