DOCTORS AGAIN !!!!!

I'm still around and raunchy. Damn the doctors !!!!
I have now quit both Plavix and Lipitor and feel human again. Doctor prescribed a weaker med than Lipitor, took it this past week but will stop for I feel out of sorts again !!!

For two years I complained to my doctor about my throat. at first he just nodded, later that it may be an allergy, just dismissed it thereafter. FINALLY he actually looked in my throat,the first time in two years!!! His conclusion "It is just fine, no lumps etc, inside or out. A few days later I knew it was bad, no use going back to him, cannot go to another doctor's office, BUT one can go to Urgent Care.
Doctor there took one look and said that I had swollen glands, an infection. After three weeks of antibiotics most symptoms are gone with one barely lingering. Was my doctor blind or stupid? This is not the first time he did not spot my problems even when I complained repeatedly. Like I said previously, I look too healthy and way to active to be sick !!! Athlete beware !!!

Symptoms:- no taste, no appetite, cracking voice, coughing up large lumps of phlem, crumbs etc.causing coughing, sneezing etc. and watery eyes.

Happy holidays, rest up for next year-----I won't be, skating will fill in for me.

Will be 88years of age in December !!! I hope

Oh yes, I was inducted in the Throwers Club Hall of Fame in September which makes it two,the other was in the Clarington H of F.
