yay!
March 22, 2006 1:05 pm the bodyWell guess who should make an appearance at 3 am this morning.
None other than howies trusty bladder infection.
It’s back, bigger and better than ever. Infact not a lot of sleeping occurred last night as I was releasing my bladder about every 45 minutes, with that pain filled stinging feeling. But to make it more exciting this time the release was followed by a very painful appearance of that red stuff we like to call blood.
All in all it was a bad night, a painful night and a long night.
This morning it was back to the doctor, he tested my wee and confirmed the infection was back. Gave some more antibiotics and referred me to a urologist.
He told me to call the urologist and make an appointment and if I couldn’t get one in the next two weeks to call my doctors secretary and she will use her connections to get me in sooner.
Well I called and the first available appointment they have is in June. So I called my doctor back and his secretary tried her connections.
She managed to get me one on the 12th of April.
Which still isn’t within the next two weeks and is also 4 days before I’m going away to uluru for 2 weeks. And I don’t really want to go to uluru with the threat of another infection popping up at the drop of a hat. And what if he wasn’t to do more test but then I’m away.
So I called the secretary back and she talked to my doctor and they found out that there is a urology conference on in the next week or so in Sydney so all urology places are pretty booked up.
Well now I have an appointment with a urologist on the 5th of April. Thank you for trying so hard Mrs. Secretary lady.
And that my friends is that.
Oh and I threw up this morning aswell.
Have a nice day

wwwooottt i can comment!!!!
I love the fact that you have a category “the Body”. It really just proves that you are sick far to often.
I still think you should take the rest of the week off, unless you get better NOW!!

Look on the bright side Howie. At least you can say “I need to have a bloody wee” and the sheer truth in the statement makes it unnoffensive.
I might go and have a bloody wee myself… (see, it just sounds rude when I say it).
