I got up and went to breakfast with Jane. We had a good visit as always and she brought me two starts of sanseveria (snake plant, mother in law's tongue) from when she repotted hers. I mailed a large envelope at the Marion post...

In March, I ended up in the ER of the Tawas Hospital. I was very sick, coughing and having a hard time breathing. I mentioned COVID and they said, 'No, we don't test for COVID any more.' I was shocked to hear this, but took it...

Judy Evans @JudyEv (381741) • Rockingham, Australia 28 Feb 23

I wrote about having all sorts of exciting things happening this week but they have turned into non-events unfortunately. Another example of Man proposes but God has other ideas – or something like that. Firstly, Vince came down...

Diagnosis

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169406) • United States 13 Sep 22

Bob has been diagnosed with C. Diff. It is a bacteria that is often present, and does not really cause an infection until you have to deal with long term antibiotics. Then it is hard to get rid of. The usual cure is, you guessed...

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169406) • United States 23 Jun 22

Shoes Could Be The Reason

celticeagle @celticeagle (189789) • Boise, Idaho 17 Apr 22

It makes a lot of sense really. When you are out in the world the shoes you choose to wear are picking up pesticides, traces of petrol fumes, industrial pollution, and human and animal waste. Bacteria we bring in on the shoes we...

I saw an ARNP today. She examined the cyst, measured it, took a history. After consulting with my doctor, they decided that the first thing is to get me on an antibiotic. Continue with warm compresses as it has begun draining...
