A bit of a set back in the plumbing area. Couldn't pee at all yesterday morning so ended up in A&E.qbman1 wrote:Poor lamb. You OK ?Stephen wrote:Been in A&E all morning
After much prodding, inserting and injecting (bl**dy painful) I'm now back with the external plumbing until things settle down again.

Re: The Children's Off Topic Thread
Attended a non-religious funeral yesterday - a first for me. For someone without a specific faith, it seemed a really nice send off, concentrating on the person and his life rather than all the false piety. This may sound daft but it felt like quite a happy event.

Hi Stephen.....l remember a few years back having a bleed from one of my kidneys which resulted in congealed blood clots forming along my pee tube.....now l can't remember which was more painful....not being able to pee or having that bloody catheter shoved up my willie wonker but l do remember the relief when it was done....you have my sympathy mate.
Squeak squeak!

I'll mention it to my wife but l was rather hoping you would be attending my funeral as a mark of respect.....not a freebie day out at the races

Hey Stephen...just had a thought....If it's still a bit sore when your wife gets back try asking her to rub it better for you....It might bring a little relief to your suffering.
Keep smiling

Re: The Children's Off Topic Thread
He had a nasty one on Friday, then 2 days off but 2 more in 12 hours on Sunday night/Monday morning. We are hoping the new targeted antibiotic will threat the source of the infection that the vets think is causing the fits and they are also looking at putting him on anti-epilepsy medicationanniec wrote:Hooray!

Oh dear, poor old you (and the cat, of course).

Thanks. Not something I can recommend.
Once was bad enough but when they couldn't get the first one in they went for a more rigid three way valve one working on the assumption I might have to go back to theatre. Then once they had finished pumping antibiotics into me via an IV drip they decided to change the catheter again to a single valve one and send me home. Needless to say it bl**dy well hurt and I was glad to get out of the place.
Strange thing is, I always say thank you to the staff as I leave.

Re: The Children's Off Topic Thread
When you roughly know when you are going to croak it, can you let me know so I can check that it doesn't clash with any holiday/cruise dates.
