Prayers sent, my friend. Don't wait for too long to get to the docs. I know you hate to go, I'm the same way, but you can't let it go too long.

Hey bud....if ya Want things to get better, you need a doc......GO!---6

I don't know your situation but I know chronic pain is tough. Pain can make you seek relief anyway you can get it. My experience is that the longer I wait the harder it is to get relief. I've had to swallow my pride and seek help more than once. Sorry for the ramble, prayers up!

claybob86 · Post by **claybob86** » Sat Feb 17, 2018 2:05 am

Prayers sent! Hang in there and get well, friend! (We don't know each other, but I think of you as a friend)

Pitchy · Post by **Pitchy** » Sat Feb 17, 2018 8:35 am

Thanks guys, I went to a doc Monday only to be told I need a referral to see a specialist and would be a two month wait.

Going back Monday and going to call the hospital first to see if there`s a specialist available then get the other doctor to call it in, I hope.

I hope you can git 'r done, pain-wise, Pitchy - today's medical two-step process is a Royal PITA.

Prayin' for you Lenn. Is it a VA hospital you'll be going to? I have another darned UTI so went to the VA clinic that's only 5 miles from my house yesterday. They had me come back 3 times. One trip to tell them what I needed, they had me come back and pee in the jar then come back and pick up the Rx. But I got taken care of by a bunch of sweet, caring people. I hear you about the pain Bro, this new knee is the pits since I fell on it.

Pitchy · Post by **Pitchy** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 8:46 am

Thanks everyone I appreciate the prayers, Ron no it`s a regular hospital I haven`t heard from the VA in two years.
I have a burning feeling in my whole urinary track, local clinic doctor which I have to see in order to get a referral to a urologist took a urine test and it was clean and blood test.
Maybe the prostate I don`t know, I`m not going for the CT lung scan they have me set up for Tuesday until I get to the bottom of this first, we`re getting a snow storm next few days besides.

OldWin · Post by **OldWin** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 10:43 am

Best of luck, Lenn. Keep us posted.
Yeah, I just got in from cleaning up about 4" from last night.

I hope you can get to the bottom of it quickly and get some relief. Prayer said. God Bless.

KWK · Post by **KWK** » Mon Feb 19, 2018 12:36 am

Two months to see a urologist? We had such waits living overseas. Perhaps you can schedule one sooner in a larger city? A motel is not that expensive. Best wishes.

Pitchy · Post by **Pitchy** » Mon Feb 19, 2018 5:36 pm

Thanks fellars, update, went to local doc today and she made a referral to a hospital about 30 miles away.
They called me and said it would be June or July for a appointment , then they told me I could get in at a big city in May 150 miles away.

I said no on those and now they are checking in another city and will get back to me.
Guess if things go bad I`ll have to try a ER somewhere.

daisygordoninc · Post by **daisygordoninc** » Mon Feb 19, 2018 6:21 pm

I will lift up some prayer for you, I feel like I know you just from the forum.

Bill in Oregon · Post by **Bill in Oregon** » Mon Feb 19, 2018 6:28 pm

Lenn, I'll be blunt. That sucks and it is a damnable indictment of the state of medical care in these United States if a man in urological pain can't be seen within 24 hours!
Now when I cool off a bit, I'll try praying for you some more. I'm not fit to attempt to get the Lord's ear right now.

EdinCT · Post by **EdinCT** » Mon Feb 19, 2018 7:21 pm

Praying for you Pitchy! I know 30 years ago my Grand Father was in pain and was getting the same run around. My Dads best friend was a Dr and he stopped by and said to him lay on the floor and don't even think about getting up. Gramp said he couldn't do that and Doc said yes you will and I get you looked at today. He called a ambulance and rode with him to the ER. He got right in and answers the next day. Not sure your insurance status but it maybe worth it.

OldWin · Post by **OldWin** » Mon Feb 19, 2018 11:31 pm

Sorry to hear, Lenn.
It's pretty sad when murderers in prison get better medical treatment than our veterans.
Prayers, buddy.

Prayers up Lenn.

Blaine · Post by **Blaine** » Tue Feb 20, 2018 4:58 pm

What The fanny burp?!?! Medical care in this country is worse than a banana republic.

I've been waiting for a VA pulmonary workup and a PetScan for three months. Barry really got the country all screwed up.

Pitchy · Post by **Pitchy** » Wed Feb 21, 2018 4:01 am

There`s bad luck then there`s Lenns luck

, yesterday the one and only vehicle we have other than the Harley`s is the van.
Anti freeze running out of the bottom of the radiator, just what I needed

So ordered a new radiator and have to put it in now, though I am feeling relief with the pain thing so your prayers are a workin fellars.

OldWin · Post by **OldWin** » Wed Feb 21, 2018 8:15 am

Sorry bout the radiator buddy. Messing with cooling systems is NO fun.
Glad you have a little relief, my friend. Will sure keep sending prayers.

Pitchy · Post by **Pitchy** » Wed Feb 21, 2018 3:45 pm

Hey fellars I got a call today and got a appointment to see a Urologists next week, so if the radiator gets here Friday we should be good to go.

OldWin · Post by **OldWin** » Wed Feb 21, 2018 4:29 pm

Good news, Lenn. Glad you're getting in to be seen. Keep us posted.

Pitchy · Post by **Pitchy** » Wed Feb 21, 2018 6:39 pm

Thanks Jay, looks like the rad won`t get until Monday but I`ll get there somehow.

Bill in Oregon · Post by **Bill in Oregon** » Wed Feb 21, 2018 7:54 pm

If Minnesoty weren't so dang far from New Mexico, I'd run you to the doc's myself, Pitch. Currently in Oregon helping my ex do her crazy taxes. Glad the pressure has eased some!

Pitchy · Post by **Pitchy** » Wed Feb 21, 2018 8:08 pm

Thanks bud and I bet you would, long haul up too Oregon huh?
Ya know none of it really means nothing, I`ll do what I want and everyone that tells me I can`t will make me do it more.
Had a doc tell me the other day that drinking a 12 pack a day was considered being a alcoholic , wheee, well doc to bad.
My uncle quit smoking and died of a brain aneurism shortly after, my life has been ride hard and the heck what everyone else thinks.
The key is believing in the Lord knowing your washed clean of your sins, we lost a good man today Billy Gram he will be standing in front of the Lord being told well done faithful servant.
Me I`ll be there but might not have quite as many crowns.

OldWin · Post by **OldWin** » Wed Feb 21, 2018 11:24 pm

Yup. The Rev. was one of the best of us for sure.
But you are right up there too buddy. I'm proud to call you a friend.
Hang tough bro.
