I started my One year tests this weekend. I know its Good Friday but the clinic was open and I was booked for an intragam and had the Bone Marrow Aspiration at the same time we were in and out in only a few hours and I didn't feel a thing.... that I remember. I get sedation now and don't remember anything but I was saying it hurt it hurt or so says Joyce. I prefer to think of myself as the stoic type just grinding my teeth and being quiet but who cares as I'd don't remember a thing.
Doc Schoozenbootz said my blood tests that morning were excellent! So that's good and I have been working on my diet and have cut way down on sweets, and for those of you that have ever stood between me and dark chocolate can attest to, that's something hard for me to do. Remember I'm the guy that postulated the dessert pocket theory. Anyway I have diabetes that has been brought on (they think) by genes and by weight so I have to get a grip on this or start losing toes!
Anyway the Newbie, Bluey and I are in a new swanky hotel in Brisbane CBD chilling this morning bloging, reading the paper and waiting for the Bevenator to call and give us our plan for the day. We have tix to Sianead O'Connor tonight and bluey and Newbie are going to a dance show Sunday don't yet know what else we are doing but on Tuesday I finish most of my tests. Lung function, chest xray, ECG, 19 tubes of blood, skin tests etc. and then Newbie gets on a plane to Cairns on Wednesday and we drive back to HB.
More later
Chris
