Posts will be sporadic possibly for the next few days. A podiatrist I went to see today said I probably have a condition called gout which he said he can't treat. I'm on so many different medications and with all the possible drug interactions he didn't want to fuck with it. Since I don't have a primary Doctor or health insurance only State Medicaid I have no choice but to go to the emergency room for treatment. I'll go to (RWJUH) because that is where all my other medical care has been and all my medical records as well as my Cardiologist is based there too. I know the routine all too well and I'll probably be there all damn day but this pain is killing me and I've got to get this taken care of.
I'll see you all later.

UPDATE:I got back this afternoon after spending only a few hours in the ER. It was pretty obvious what what wrong so it didn't take that long to do Xrays and write some scripts for me for Colchicine, I figured I'd either have to take that or Allopurinol. And best of all a script for 20 blessed Vicodin w/Ibuprofen for the pain and swelling. Finally maybe tonight a good nights sleep for once!
I love to watch the expression on medical staffs faces when they ask for a medical history and I tell them I suffered and Aortic Dissection in 2004 and then an aneurysm and the repair of ascendong aorta in 2007. It's like they just saw a ghost! ME!
