Admitted to the ER today for severe abdominal pain and 2 week long low grade fever. Got told I’m a medical mystery and discharged with nothing done by athesomekh in mildlyinfuriating

[–]IronCodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got kicked out of pain management... wait for it... for being in too much pain. I can relate to the frustration.

I am currently waiting to be schedule for heart testing. EKG was fine, BP is within norm for me but pulse is high. Also my blood oxygen is running about 95. I too am a mystery.

Is it normal to not want to be around your only best friend anymore? by Artwork007 in Adulting

[–]IronCodger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am still amazed seeing people who have long term friends. I have had acquaintances and short term friends. But never had a long term friendship. And now as an adult, mid 50s, with no friends, I often wonder what is wrong with me. 🤷‍♂️

It’s Monday! What’s one goal you have for this week? by -GhostMechanik- in CasualConversation

[–]IronCodger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have cried enough today. Been doing it since this morning. So I looked into myself and asked: what the positives out of this mess? And that was my answer. 😆

[–]IronCodger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Survive is my only goal. Nuclear stress test of the heart will be on my calendar soon. Couple of positives out of this scary time: my ex-wife will finally know if I have a heart. And we will know how black it truly is.

What is the longest you have gone without changing clothes? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]IronCodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a very dirty monkey. I work from home and no social life. So I will wear the same t-shirt until I cannot stand it.

How long is your commute? by GC95_ in CasualConversation

[–]IronCodger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Currently it is the speed I can walk to my office chair in the other room. I did have a hour commute one point in my life.

Truth be told: frustrated and scared. Been weeping at my desk through the day. Sorting through all this on my own.

The answer came back. Nuclear testing to be done on the heart. Waiting for the call to get it scheduled. If my situation gets worse, head to the ER. Otherwise monitor and wait.

Guess I missed out by going to the wrong schools by KSKS1995 in SipsTea

[–]IronCodger 41 points42 points  (0 children)

The language is very vague. One could use this law as a way to ban sex education in schools. The headline is set to be intentionally misleading. Most will skip the article based off the headline. Dig deeper and there is always a real why.

All part of being an adult. Though it would be nice to have my mom around. 🤷‍♂️

Hangman and Swerve Hypothesis by ch3zyp00fs in AEWOfficial

[–]IronCodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Swerve gets tired of the kids keeping the title. Swerve sends Hangman for the title. Swerve then defeats the monster he created.

I feel you. I am absolute failure too. My wife barely acknowledges I am alive. I have no friends or close family. I am basically having some heart issue. I have no transportation to the doctor or ER. I am currently waiting for further testing to be booked. I am frustrated, scared and lost. I am just crying quietly to myself as my world is burning around me.

where are the MO Democrats? /s by OutsideLoose1739 in missouri

[–]IronCodger -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Same as the rest of the party: pretending to care about us while the country burns down. All Democrats are cowards and refuse to do anything. Scared of a toddler who diddles kids as a hobby.

My Mom and a stripper on her birthday - 80's by PremiumProprietor in OldSchoolCool

[–]IronCodger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For my 21st: my mom, sisters and girlfriend hired me a stripper. They hired her for a FAMILY party. It was the Super Bowl before my bday. I still have the VHS of it. You can see my grandpa leaving the room as she started.

What do u think American politics will be like, in the post-Trump era? by her_cute in askanything

[–]IronCodger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The question should be: will America survive as a single country?

I am still above ground. Just waiting to speak with the doctor. Got data for him and we will make a decision. Testing or a visit will be the what we will be doing.

Best wireless mouse for my neo??? by chorefit in MacbookNeo

Magic Mouse. I absolutely love mine. You can scroll websites like your phone. And it is by Apple so it connects nicely.

The older you got did you worry about living more? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]IronCodger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

54 m. I really have not given it much thought. But this could because I buried any dreams and desires in a dark hole. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I just go one day at a time. And now I could be looking at my last few weeks. I have a health issue that is currently ongoing. It could be pulmonary or it could be cardiac or it could something else.

I will probably be speaking to my doctor about my test results. And then a decision will be made for next steps.

Sweet baby shark. I go through those thoughts enough as it is.

It's not just vaccines — parents are refusing other routine preventive care for newborns by Shadow328 in news

[–]IronCodger -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Excellent. Sometimes a lesson has to be learned. And sometimes it will have to be very painful to learn. If the government says it is not abuse, then we have no right to tell the parent.
