All the best at the quacks Vic Thanks Rob, I was scanned today in the ultrasound room @ Victor Valley Imaging(in Desert Knolls according to My phone), two ladies attended, one scanned Me, the other seemed to be just standing there, a lot of hold your breathe, breathe, but I was told they got a lot of good images of My kidneys and the bladder, now I just hope they find something that does not require surgery. The results I was told won't be available until sometime next week. The room lights were dim, enough that you could see, but not much more.

They normally have two people when doing ultra-sound scans, one to look after the patient and the other the equipment. One always hopes that the former just stands around with their hands in their pockets because that means all is well with the patient (they haven't turned blue or leaked red stuff). As for kidney surgery - I would put that near the very bottom of my "must have" list... even a simple "snatch and grab" of a stone stuck in the "exhaust pipe" is a very uncomfortable and undignified process and one I wouldn't want to go through again :-( Hopefully you will be able to get the results by phone, as that means "nothing to worry about", but if you do have to go and see the quack again I hope it is something they can treat without resorting to the knife.

@Rob I have done the knife thing. Gall bladder. It was a quick snatch and grab of the loose stones and the bag they spilled from. Just Laparoscopic surgery. I walked in the hospital and they did the surgery and then I walked out. Just a few hours of my day was used. |

They normally have two people when doing ultra-sound scans, one to look after the patient and the other the equipment. Not in germany. I had a few recently and it was always just one person. Not that it matters so long the result is correct. Normally i would say TGIF but i`m not working tho. With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

Sure feels like Friday, It would feel more like Friday if I didn't have to go in to work 5 hours of OT today. But, at least I got the oil in Toothless changed out yesterday from 5-50w to 5-20w, so he's good to go for the winter. Did not want to crank very well the first night it got down to 22f here with the summer oil....LOL. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Mike, I am just now reading that you have been ill. I'm sorry you have been unwell. Eric and I wish you a speedy recovery. Thanks Byron, I'm over the cold, and most of the drainage has stopped, found out I missed My appointment, nurse says the appointment was for 11:00am, I think I looked at it once and thought it said 1:12(My short term memory was on the fritz again), when the 12 is the month, so I got a new appointment for 3:30pm on Dec 20th, and yes the North wind here is cold, brr, yes I'm still in short sleeves, and without a jacket, as that would just heat Me up in the daytime, at night I'd wear a jacket, but as long as the sun is up I can stand it. I wrote the right time and date down this time, here on My PC, where I look at it all the time. I did discover more of SR58 is being made into a 4 lane freeway, from the i15 fwy towards US395, but I only went a few miles, the new section seems to go on for at least 2 miles, maybe more, I'll wait until spring to see how far it goes now.

Winning in downtown San Francisco. Anyone have a Fedora I can borrow? (kidding) Going to a 20's theme party at an old speakeasy on Church Street. Air line wouldn't let me bring my tommy gun. |

Then why post? LOL...not that I should be the one asking that question. I have many times posted when I had nothing constructive to say. As you were, Vic. As you were. Meow. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |
