The dumb 💩s have dried up pills here...so now the drug culture as a whole is on meth and/or heroin/fentanyl and dropping like flies. Speedballing meth and fentanyl is a death wish.

The hoops and humiliation that people with legitimate chronic pain issues have to go through to get the medication that gives them at leasy some quality of life makes me absolutely sick on a daily basis.

Yessir, me too. It’s not that bad in Texas.
 
The fact I can't take anything but Tylenol for my pain, which doesn't work, must be why I have such a crappy quality of life.

Been meaning to explore CBD, but haven't found time to go to an actual shop and talk to someone. Doctors say I have to be careful what I take as it could potentially interact with my anti-rejection meds.

That’s awful.

Back in the spring I had gall stones.... Misdiagnosed as a heart attack the first trip to the ER... My wife's best friend who is a PA, told us to have my gall bladder checked... Thank goodness for her, because on the second trip to the ER, I was screaming 'check the gall bladder!'. And she was right lol. It's a bit longer story, but in the process of an that I developed pancreatitis, mild version comparitively speaking mind you, but let's just say that was a long 2 months... Pain I've never felt before, hope to never again.

Anyway... After all that you start to find out just how common all that is, and how some people go years without the correct diagnosis... So I consider myself lucky, Relatively speaking that is...

Good grief, man. Hope all's good now, jake.

Even with all my injuries, pancreatitis is a pain level I didn't know could exist. There's several levels but can't imagine any don't suck.
Changed my take on meds real quick. Spent most of my time pleading for death, while waiting on the process.

Of course the pharmacist always gives the old "let's see, here's your.." so I get the pleasure of seeing people behind me give the look. You can imagine the thoughts as I walk on by.

When you say both kidneys taken out, you mean like they had a transplant or something? You only have two kidneys, and you've got to have at least one.

Dialysis.

If there’s cancer in both, they have to come out. Can’t transplant until cancer free. Plus any chemo could torch a transplanted organ.

Must have been an HMO type insurance. Doctor caved instead of fighting.

I have kept patients in the hospital with one simple statement to insurance companies: your company would hate for me to be the expert testimony in the massive negligence case against your insurance company if anything untoward happens to my patient. Plus my next door neighbor is a local news anchor who just loves fraud expose pieces. (He is actually a meteorologist, but they don’t need that info, ruins my argument) 😎

That’s what I thought. But they took out both and he went to dialysis 3 days a week. Unfortunately, he died in a car accident on the way to dialysis. He was on the list for a transplant, but he was far down even though in his forties because there was something genetic that runs in his family. His started earlier than most family members because of those before mentioned drugs that has been the topic of discussion.

Polycystic kidney disease?
 
We should ask Doc. I'm no doctor, just a guy who has had a transplant, but I don't think what you're saying is actually possible. I don't think you are lying, but I do think you were given incorrect information.

@VolsDoc81TX - Could you comment on this with your medical expertise?

Already did.
Kidneys are one of the only organs that function can be replaced by a machine.

Liver, heart, lung, no.

Please quit disrespecting my Captain of the Cheerleaders! 🤠
 
I apologize in advance because I respect you and your posts, but there is no scenario where anybody would have both kidneys removed and be sent home. Not here, not in any country in the world. It just is not possible.

Not sound medical practice. If doctor and hospital caves to insurance pressure, then absolutely possible.

Only in America do insurance companies have so much power. They buy DC every year. They paint docs and hospitals as the bad guys and pay the politicians to support their agendas.

They partner with big Pharma to keep drug prices up because they have huge investments in the pharmaceutical companies.

Since Obamacare started, the government has shown no interest in reigning in the insurance atrocities. It makes me sick.

Yes, some have great commercials. But they are all just money machines.

A longtime Tennessee commitment announced Tuesday that he's now headed to another school. Class of 2022 tight end Brody Foley of Anderson High School in Cincinnati posted Tuesday afternoon on his Instagram account that he has committed to Indiana, officially parting ways with the Vols the day before Early Signing Day

Any info on this kid? Did we cool on him?
