Glad to hear you are feeling better GP. I think I will be heading back to Boston for in the next 4-6 weeks. Not sure what part of Mass you grew up in.

Good morning everyone....GP

Thanks, I'm feeling better today than I have in weeks....GP

Good afternoon - Tithe. [&o][&o][&o]

Scored a ticket to see my second favorite band of all time, Genesis, in November. Yeah, they are old, but I haven't been able to see them since 1987 and I'm not going to pass up this chance. Really hoping that things will be mostly back to normal with the pandemic by then.

62 over 58? Can I trade you some points? I average 140-150 over 90 or so.....

It went back up. A little too much. But if I get active, then it goes down.

I have posted pictures of the outside of my right foot. If I could post the pictures of the insides, then you can see the bone spurs plus the jumble of bones going to the toes that are still there. But I will still walk for miles if I need/want to. [8D]

I lived up there for 30 years. We lived in Haverhill. But grew up in Jersey....GP

I do not have the right big toe, the toe next to it, nor the balls of the feet behind them. Think of my balance.

But I can think of a worse place to get melanoma than the bottom of the right big toe. And unless Lorena Bobbitt [X(] would be involved, there would be no cut and paste . . .

Tickets for Genesis are available for Columbus for a December concert....GP

Genesis is good. BTW, are they going to have the drummer sing? [&:] His daughter is very easy on the eyes . . . [:)]

Yeah, you have to take care of yourself....GP

At the same time, I had a systemic infection of Candida Albans I do believe, a blood clot in my upper right thigh but my right calf was too swollen to check, an infection on the top of my right foot that when they removed the dead tissue the whole was 5.5 cm by 4.5 cm down to the muscles and ligaments of my foot. That foot infection did not go into my bones. My blood pressure was 62 over 58. [X(] I was a little dehydrated . . .

When they finally took a tissue sample from my right lung and cultured it, I was told that black mold was growing. I had been given medicine but was not getting better and the medical staff could not figure out why until they took the tissue sample with the resulting culture. I even went into an isolation room because TB was suspected. I do have a small amount of lung scarring.

I lost 50 pounds of weight in 5 weeks and I was water bloated. More than once, I tapped my kidneys and over 1 litre came out. The measuring device that hold that much in the toilet bowl runneth over. I was told that the normal output for an adult was around 200 ml. Yes, I did feel it drain from my kidneys! I was drinking up to 3 litres of water a day, 5 or 6 small cartons of milk, plus receiving 7 to 9 IVs a day with different medicines. Each IV was a half litre or 1 litre of fluids.

Covid-19 does not scare me but I am careful.

Wow dude 😳....GP

That is one of the reasons why I sometimes reply to the question of how I am doing "I am alive." Not being sarcastic either.

Take it one day at a time, it is rough when two or more days hit you all at once.

I was also homeless at the time that I got a little ill.

My wife and I were nearly evicted a bunch of years ago. That was scary. I assume that you have a place to hang your hat now?....GP
