    Howdy,

    Damn dude, that doesn't sound pleasant.

    You need like a frequent flyer card for medical shit or something.  Like an automatic upgrade to the first class waiting room.

    When I was in my twenties I was always in and out hospitals and doctors offices. My Friend's would joke That I should have a gold card and a reserved parking space. It's bad enough when I brought my Dad and wife for their colonoscopies the staff said "Hi Steve, What are you doing here?" I have doctor offices that know my last name & birthday when I check in.

    Damn Steve, good luck with the surgery. 

    So for fun they decided to move things manually. So I’m about an eleven in a scale of one to ten. 


  3. Well it finally happened. I took a shot to the face tonight. All my teeth on my right side are in the middle of my mouth. I’m currently waiting for a CT scan to see if it’s a facial fracture or dental surgery. Thankfully it’s not as painful as I thought it was going to be. But I’m sure that won’t last after it gets fixed. They’re going to give me Tylenol. I’m sure that will help.

  4. I’ve been using  Hoapa sticks for two years and I’ve been happy with them. Some of their newer sticks are very close to high end sticks. Prices range from $100 to $200. If you don’t mind not having the top end sticks this a good option. I have problems finding pro stock sticks with the specs I like. Pro stock sticks are available at good prices. So you can get a quality stick at good prices. 


  5. I’ve been using Hoapa sticks for a couple years now. The first few I bought I liked. I knew going in that I was getting the same as a high end stick. The biggest reasons why I tried them was because of the customization. The latest sticks I’ve bought have been almost like the top brand name sticks. The bed part is they are built and shipped quickly. You get them within ten days. Their PRO+ two pack sticks are $200. I have trouble finding pro stocks that are close to what I like. 
    I agree that pro stocks are a great way to get quality sticks for half of retail.

    I haven’t gotten the biopsies back, but things didn’t look good during the procedure. My doctor said that there was significant inflammation and couldn’t do what he wanted because of the inflammation. 
    so I’m waiting for the results of my biopsies and afterwards will discuss options. My doctor didn’t seem very optimistic when we talked afterwards on what he saw. 
    So I'm In limbo waiting for the results. ☹️

    Biopsies didn’t show any dysplasia. Which is good, but he wasn’t able to take as many biopsies as he wanted to. Everything looked bad, so now I’m waiting to see where I go from here. In the report it has pictures and it was pretty ugly.

    Good luck Steve! Hope it goes smoothly and biopsies are "unremarkable".   At least you're out for what sounds like a pretty unpleasant procedure. 

    I had my hernia surgery this morning (for the injury the day before Summer Jam).  Hurts to roll over or get out of bed. Hoping that doesn't last for too long...

    Feel better. Hernia repairs are no joke.

  9. So my big colonoscopy is tomorrow. unfortunately, run of the mill for me. The only thing different this time is the doctor will be using dye to do targeted biopsies. The colonoscopy will be twice as long so they're having me get general anesthesia for this one. So I won't get to experience the cramping, which is nice. Then I wait for the results. Not exactly looking forward to another surgery.

    So spring hasn’t been good at all. My latest colonoscopy showed some mild dysplasia (precancerous tissue). I’m getting a more enhanced colonoscopy in the fall. And depending on how that looks I’ll be getting surgery to either remove a portion of my colon removed or a total colectomy. 
    Then if that wasn’t enough I stepped on a puck and went into the boards and broke my shoulder. The top corner of my humerus broke. I’m seeing Orthopedics tomorrow to see if I need to have surgery for that. There goes my summer. 

    It’s official out 8-12 weeks. 
    pretty easy to see the fracture

    I put it in my calendar as ending at 2pm. Was leaving around noon, and my friend was like “double check the time, I think it ended at noon.” womp womp. 

    So that I know how much to kick myself, how much were gloves and sticks? 

    Sticks were very limited. I didn’t look. Gloves were $50.
