Oooh-*wee*, I just took a little spin around sundown to run some errands, and it really doesn't look like the road departments (city, county and state) have bothered to do anything: US 60's clear in all four lanes, but I suspect later tonight when traffic dies down those nice wet lanes are gonna freeze slicker 'n' snot, and the secondary roads-- well, the road from my house, and the road it connects with (which connects with 60), were definite slow-speed crunchy challenges on the way out, and actual "motorboating" on the way back in-- you know, where yer tires are spinning, and you know they're spinning, but, at a low speed, and on not too slick a surface, and not too steep a grade, and not too sharp a turn, you can maneuver the car like a boat, using the drive-wheels like propellers, and the turn-wheels like rudders (my Concord's front-wheel drive, and has pretty good and somewhat underinflated tires on it, so it worked pretty well). w00+ I wish I had a scanner so I could listen for the Dread Moment tonight when US 60 and I-64 become suicide-gigs . . . .

Hmf. Just one spun out. And I-64 and several other highways got closed for awhile in spots, until morning and the sun could thaw them. And there were some white-outs to the East in the Big Hills. Also, apparently some "pre-treatment" was done on some of the major highways. The only really entertaining local mishap seems to have been someone who couldn't stop at an intersection and slid not only through it but also a parking lot and into the front of a Dollar General store. -- tinmimus99@hotmail.com smeeter 11 or maybe 12 mp 10 mhm 29x13 Let's get the hell out of here while we can still pass our Rorschasch tests. < _The Last Happy Hour_

Actually it is a brand new office...I think he does not know how to change the air to heat on the thermometer. He did a bad thing while I was there. He changed my dosage of percocet from 5-750 (what I was prescibed in the hospital) to 5-375MG to be taken 2 pills every 8 hours. The others I was taking 2 every 10 or so hours and I was doing oh so well on that. In just two days the pain is back and I am sitting here in pain you cannot imagine. He is not my regular doctor.

Well, obviously his halving (that seems a kind of steep change) of your pain medication isn't working-- did you try to contact him when it became obvious that it wasn't working, or did that turn into the usual "phone tag" so beloved of modern American medicine? if you contacted him and he dismissed your complaint, that would indicate the very common problem with doctors and nurses of callousness, and mandate a refusal to have him on your case hereafter. Also, you need anti-inflammatory therapies even more than you do pain-management-- it's the inflammation that's the actual problem. -- tinmimus99@hotmail.com smeeter 11 or maybe 12 mp 10 mhm 29x13 "You are either insane or a fool."

Hyperbaric proctotherapy, hmmm. There are revascularizing drugs too, fer sure, fer sure (I wasn't even really thinking without further notice that this was chronic).
