My rain gauge said we got just shy of 2" of rain in the past 24 hrs. Sure looks like we're going to get more today but it won't be as muggy hot. Only going to 83.
That's funny about the doc visits. I'm having a hard time keeping ours straight too. As Mike says, we spend more time going to the docs than we do visiting friends and family these days.
Glad Perry is feeling better. Strange about the platelets. I've got too many so add one more doctor and more pills to add to the mix. Hope his is an easy fix too.I cannot get comfy. We are supposed to be getting rain over the next several days so that might be the reason.
Perry is feeling much better, but against my advice, he mowed my yard today. Heart still beating at 60 bpm, so I guess he is fine. And they say I'm stubborn.
He has to go see a blood doctor now because his platelet count is low. It was low in the hospital, and now it is even lower. I am hoping it is nothing. His half-brother has a low count also. We have a doctor's appt. today that they made for Perry, and we don't even know what it is for. View attachment 1029978 Guess we will find out.

I would have thought that capillary restriction would lead to pale toe tips since less blood is getting to the tissues? What about neuropathy? Sheesh, always something right?A few months back, I had my feet examined by a Podiatrist since I had been experiencing some off and on pain .. he mentioned that my main blood flow into the feet seemed good, however, there was some redness around the toe tips .. asked me if I smoked, told him no, but that I do vape .. he concluded that he felt the nicotine was causing some restrictions in the tiny capillaries .. made sense
