The wheels have been turning. Another endoscopy performed and 5 veins banded, finally. The specialist in Atlanta personally called me today to report his findings after viewing the CT and MRI scans. He is one who comes across as very caring. The one local GI doctor, though a poor communicator...
Nothing was done to stop anything. One doctor passing me off to another but then I keep bleeding. I'm waiting to be taken down for another endoscopy and probable banding of the varicose veins to stop the bleeding. Things have been put off each time and when I return to hospital those procedures...
Spent another night in the hospital. Internal bleeding again. Don't know how long I'll be here this time.
I have not tried to catch up on the thread since Wednesday. If anyone has inquired, please remind me again.
Hello all. It is still a waiting game here. Visited with the specialist on Tuesday. The local saw bones dropped the ball and never sent videos of the scans so it will be 1-2 weeks before he can view those. No guess work from the specialist until he sees the videos. There will be no option for a...
If you have a grinder you take off the outer and inner corners of the lining slightly. Don't have a grinder? Use a file and rub the brake pad across the file teeth. The corners of the new pad will tend to contact the ridge of the rotor and the center area will not make full contact to the rotor...
Did you machine or replace the brake rotors? If not, did you chamfer the edges of the pads before installing? If the rotor has a ridge on the outer and inner pad contact area the pad contact will not be ideal. I have replaced pads many times and only chamfered the edges with no problems.
Dark Horse is already darkening up. Was almost clear when I received it. Cap off for a little over 2 days. Now shaking it, then removing cap to vent it, then cap back on.
I have always liked the joke about the hypochondriac's tomb stone epitath. "I Told You I Was Sick".:toast:
I already do not miss driving everyday. My Ranger was getting 1000 miles a week but since mid-April hasn't traveled over 100 miles.
I understand fuel costs. Now that I am not driving around I will not be spending $150+ a week on gas. This week it is 3.56 a gallon in Newnan. My wifes Scion Xb gets 32mpg and we were driving it for the last 4 weeks. Fuel costs dropped to about 1/2. I will be selling the Ranger soon. It has...
Not to get too descriptive here. The toilet paper at the hospital is not for frequent flyers. One antibiotic was causing the runs for several days. I think it is next step away from emory cloth. Riding my bike could get very incomfortable on the skinny seat.
Lubuntu or Xubuntu likely would...
If it is an older laptop a varient of Ubuntu would run smoother. Anything 6-7 years old should be fine. I use an 8 year old Toshiba with 2Gib ram.
This is the latest version and runs fine: Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail)
This is what I am using because I do not like the Ubuntu Unity desktop...
Not if you use a Linux OS. Don't need any anti-virus at all. Otherwise I use the Avast free version on a Windows install.

Back home and will be laying low this week. Don't want to aggravate any more bleeding.
