Thanks for the well wishes guys.

Lucious, I used to post on here quite a bit. Life handed me a big lemon (or a few) and I am not on here much anymore, but I still have friends on here.

Some better than real life friends if the truth be told.


Happy Birthday to Doc!!: click here to read the entire thread »

Wow, what a pleasant surprise. I figured my birthday would swing by and noone would notice.

First off, I never loan money without a signature.

Once I have that, I simply leave them a message...

"Hey man, I know it probably just slipped your mind, but you forgot to pay me like you agreed to. If you just forgot, no problem, this is a reminder. If however you deliberately failed to make your payment, can you let me know why? Do you need an extension? I will work with you, but you have to communicate with me."


If it has happened several times, I let him know that the arrangement was not being honored and that I need payment in full by ____ date.

Then if the date arrives and he hasn't paid I file in court.

Fortunately I have only had to file once, but he paid before the court date.

The way to a man's heart is through his thorax with rib spreaders.

Or through his thigh.

I have health insurance and I support reform, but not reform that includes a government socialist program and constrains me as a doctor from delivering care or doing as my education and experience has trained me for.

Entering patient data and treatment into a database so that I have to seek that database for treatment guidelines is not what will control health care costs.

We need meaningful tort reform, and we need less government intervention, not more.

Met a girl I really liked, made plans, life happened.

My disaster is personal, has nothing to do with CS or the girl.

It depends...

Aside from my whore of an exwife, every relationship I have ever had ended amicably. There was no bad blood on any of them, so sure.

But not just no on my exwife - Hell No.

WTF, I don't think I am the only one who has had a traumatic brain injury on C.S..

I don't have a king per se, but Marvin Gaye and Johnny Cash are awesome.

You could do like I did Owen, but I don't think you would want to.

I am probably 15 pounds under a healthy weight for me right now.

Was not overweight and ran 5 miles 4 days a week before my health crisis.

I am trying to bulk up the right way now to try and get back some of the muscle that has atrophied over the last several months.

Fortunately all is not lost. I knew I could not keep the kind of pace I used to in the ER, but emergency medicine has always been my passion.

But with my move to the Northwest (I won't even go into the stupid set of circumstances that caused that), I was looking at opening my own emergency medicine clinic. That way I could keep daytime hours and wouldn't need to feel like a vampire.

But, I found a not for profit health clinic that basically does emergency medicine - no traumas, mostly stuffy noses, broken bones, bites, sports injuries, and the pace suits me well.

Plus, they let me pretty much keep my own hours as I am basically there to divide work load away from the primary doc that works there. Of course the pay is nothing like what I was making, but it is still comfortable given that I don't have any debt.

Thanks for the comments on my writing. If you saw my handwriting, you would change your mind, lol.

Thanks for the well wishes.

Yes, an aneurysm is a rupture of vessel or vessels in the brain. It can be caused by a number of factors, however I don't seem to fit the mold for any of them - which does rarely occur.

Aneurysms are often fatal, however I had mine at a hospital I was interviewing for a new position at. I was speaking with my would be supervisor on the sidewalk out front after observing for a shift to see if it was a team I could work with.

I was attended to very quickly which was very important to my survival. Rehab has been difficult, but if it was easy my progress would not have been possible.

My only regret is that although my life was spared, life has seen major changes for me - most of which were not positive.

But, we still have life.

Been a long while since I have frequented CS.

Things are good here.

I'm up to about 6'1" or down to that anyway. I have lost quite a bit of weight - probably too much.

Rehab is going well. I have regained about 90% use of my extremities. Still a little shakey when walking, but hopefully that will come.

I will likely always sound like a drunk which is great when I get pulled over like I was a couple of weeks ago.

Things at the clinic are great and I am assuming a larger case load every month. I expect I will be full time there after Christmas.

Time is short, I am not home much. Things are pretty good here, overall.

med,

I had an aneurysm and 2 weeks later had a subdural hematoma. I have been in recovery. My license that I refer to is my drivers license because of paralysis and loss of gross motor function, I was not permitted by my physician to drive. But have progressed enough now that I can drive with some modifications to my vehicle and was able to get my Washington DL - I had just moved from CA when this happened.

I am doing well. I am nowhere near 100%. More like about 50%, but after this happened I was about 10% so I have made progress.

Still sound like a drunken sailor though. Not sure I will ever get rid of the slur.


Actually took today off: click here to read the entire thread »

I took today off with nothing to do, nowhere to go. I am not working out, not going to work, not going to PT.

I haven't been around much lately because I haven't been around much. I leave out at about 6 a.m. for breakfast with friends, then 9 a.m. P.T..

I go to lunch and get to the clinic at 2 p.m. and work till 6. Then various night activities.

I finally got my license back on Monday and have been driving like a bat outta hell so watch out on those highways.

Sorry to hear owen. I just saw this - first time I have been on since Friday.

How old is he again?

If I had a dollar for every head shot I took growing up, I would be a very wealthy man.......oh wait, in light of my recent problems, that may not be too comforting.
