    Are you drunk? Maybe that’s why you didn’t get a raise.

    There accomodations are they hired me a temp and he’s too soft for the job. Him being paid is one of the reasons they say my raises will suffer. I’ve worked all week sick, he says he doesn’t feel good today so he is sleeping in the break room.

    :pccoffee: Good morning.

    Bad reaction to the dye they used in my MRI Wednesday night, not been fun. On call for 3 more days. Snow Storm warning starting tomorrow at 6 AM, starting off with rain and ice. Inch of snow still on driveway (and roads) so need to get that off before it turns to solid ice when the rain hits it although it is well on its way to ice already. The County and State decided to wait and see if it would melt so I did too. Not going to happen. Hoping weatherman is wrong, again, and be able to shoot my new gun in the morning at a place planning to throw some clays. With my luck for once the weather guessers will be right for once.

    Getting paid isn't an accommodation. That's being compensated for work performed.

    Headache was about the only thing I did not get. Puking for 2 days, diarrhea with no warning, and bumps on skin and really bad itching from knees down. They were looking at tumors on the liver so it was a gadolinium based contrast agent which is liver specific. Technically a MRE done as a MRI which we invented here. Good news is my liver isn't "stiff" and the tumors appear to be benign :) Guess didn't drink enough alcohol in my day LOL. But found more tumors on renal glands so more tests and doctor visits coming up.

    So looks like the joint pain all through my body is from high iron, and it is really high. Normally that is from heredity traits but I am negative for those markers. Rare but it does happen and they are trying to find out why and how I ended up with hemochromatosis. It is real bad in my hands and wrist now too, what they call "iron fist". At this point don't really care why I have it as long as it isn't cancer. And just want the pain to go away :mad:

    I'm supposed to not drink alcohol now which isn't a problem. But they also said to avoid red meat. Told a lady that I work with that and she said Oh My Gawd! Have they met you?!

    Great phone just went off with blizzard warning for tomorrow now. Just another shitty day in paradise. I heard somewhere that I-35 goes South also...

    Damn bud,
    Once they figure out the kidney issue with luck they can put you on something to reduce the iron in the blood . The how to me is irrelevant so is the why I just want you to fix it figure out how to stop it etc . I hear you on the red meat thing , that tick disease that causes you not to be able to eat It scares the hell out of me I was like just shoot me if I get that bs going on. I guess the upside is they are figuring it out at this point . Well keep us informed please.

    Oh please, if we could, we would have dumped him long ago. Problem is we had the drawings and paid the money. First contractor hired him.
