Prayers needed for Count Adolfo

[Jezzy MacPeaks]

Darlin', I must have returned here too late to know about this, (I feel so far out of the loop), but I am soooooo happy to know you're doing much better.  I was a bit concerned when I saw in the recent pics that you'd lost weight (Looking HOT, btw!)   But, I didn't want to say anything. 
Well, no checking out for you!  And keep getting better.  I understand how it is to be down physically, and unable to do the things we love, as I've been in that situation now, which is why I'm not in Tampa!  I'm just glad you were able to make it!  And, I'll see you there next year!  Is it a date?

[Count Adolfo]

ABSOLUTELY!!! 

[Jezzy MacPeaks]

BTW, Love, you haven't lost sight of your doublet lately, have you?  If so, check your chair.  *LOL*  {{{Hugs}}}

[Count Adolfo]

Well, suppose it's time for another update.
Saw the Doc today...

you know, I'm gonna end up on an episode of House if this keeps up.


They're sending me to a cardiologist.  Doc thinks it won't hurt to have them check and see if I still have a heart, apparently.  Last I knew, I had a big one... and they're thinking that might factor into all of this.
They're also sending me to a sleep study... apparently I have sleep apnea.
This would account for part of my current symptoms, but not all.
Other potential diagnoses include anemia and thyroid problems.  They drew blood today and are running tests.

Even so, my legs are more of a concern to me... because none of this explains the issue there.

You see, the DVT is in my left leg.  My left leg is still swollen and discoloured.
Problem is, so is my right one now.  The circulation is bad in both legs.  They need to figure out why, because if I am clotting even being on thinners, then I have a real issue.

Truthfully, I'm tired of it.  I'm so over this, it's not even funny.  I've been cleared to go back to work on Monday but I'm not entirely certain that's a good thing.  See, one of the symptoms is a fatigue that causes me to just, well, zone.  When the nurse called my name the first time to go back and see the Doc today, I didn't even hear her.  She had to come back and call me a second time, she said.  She saw me sitting there, but I was oblivious to her... she called me "out to lunch"
It's a disconcerting feeling to have this lost time and lack of focus... so I'm hoping they can get to the bottom of it quickly.  The theory is that the Apnea is causing me NOT to get good sleep at night... no REM sleep.  This leaves me sleep deprived in the daytime and I zone out.
I really hope that's all it is.

When my mom when in for her sleep study it was determined that she was lacking rim sleep as well. As a result she was sleep deprived just like they are saying with you Count so don't feel bad cause your not the only one that this has ever happened to. The main thing is to take it easy and not overdo it. You still remain in my thoughts and prayers my friend.

God Bless!

[Count Adolfo]

thank you, cousin
that is very, very, VERY much appreciated.

I am just wanting all of this to be over with.

[Lady Amy of York]

We  all know  you have  a big  heart  hon. that's  what we love  about  you !

Will, if  you get  on" House"  atleast  you have  a doctor  who knows  what he is  doing  !  ROFL !

as  for  staying awake, hmmm..maybe  you need  to hire  yourself  some  young,cute, nurse  to keep  you awake  !

seriously, take  care of  yourself  and  feel  better soon  !     You continue  to  be  in  my prayers.  A  big  hug  to you  my  friend .     

[Count Adolfo]

Young, cute, single nurse wanted...

[Lady Amy of York]

LOL  !  i  actually have  a  very, very pretty  niece  who is  graduating  from nursing school  next  month.  But i have  to warn you she  knows  how  to handle  men like  you...( LOL  ),  she  has been studying  karate,   and  kick  boxing  for  years  !

LOl...you  are bad  sir  !   

[Count Adolfo]

I know karate
and twelve other Chinese words

I also know how to handle a woman...
and I didn't even have to study kickboxing...

[lordwriothsley]

Okay you all are making me jealous with all this talk of young,cute,and pretty nurses. Count I think I just might need to join you in taking applications for the young pretty nurses if you know what I mean. Hey we're M'Cracks and we stick together right. 

[Count Adolfo]

Aye!
To the family and the fairemily!!!

I also be a Count in need of a Countess
(someday, perhaps... there are some advantages to bein' a single nobleman with some amount of skill with the silver tongue)

[lordwriothsley]

Well technically that would count me out dear Count as I am married (my character that is) but my wife is very rarely seen around the shires of England these days so you never know what could end up happening to a handsome Earl such as myself. 

[lordwriothsley]

Man I hope my wife (The Countess) didn't hear that. 

[Lady Amy of York]

Man I hope my wife (The Countess) didn't hear that. 

Lord W, dear brother, you are so busted !  Now  should I be  a nice  sister or  should I...
