Jaysus. Hope everything turns out alright Anthony.
A benign side-effect of the ability to keep churning out the hits.

Update. I went the doc with a detailed timeline of symptoms. He sent me a&e to go to the Medical Assessment unit where apart from a lot of waiting around I had a load of tests done. The full MOT so to speak. Blood pressure, bloods etc all perfect. Finally a CT scan which revealed something they weren’t happy with so they wanted an MRI.
Here’s where it gets interesting. The quickest way to get an MRI is as a patient. The doc says “ so I’m going to admit you”. What the hell does that mean, total hospital noob here. Turns out the earliest available mri is Monday morning so it’s a hospital weekend for Anto.
They took some fluid out of my spine today that is going off to be tested.
Between the spline fluid and the MRI they will have all they need to answer all questions.
Stay tuned. Meanwhile I’m listening to Def Leppards first album in the ward.

ANTO!!!!!

DONT BE MESSIN!

As they say on the internet..fuck this timeline

Neil med sinus rinse dude, has been a big help to me. Once you get used to the experience it's grand.

I've been using that almost daily for the last few months. Helps a bit alright but at this stage I think I need medical intervention of some description

Good luck man. Lumber puncture? Been there- it ain't pleasant!

Update:
Had the MRI on the Monday after being admitted on the Thursday. Results were not good enough so they requested another MRI, this time on the spine too. I didn't get that until Friday ( = over a week in hospital).
In the meantime the side effect of the Lumber Puncture us a RAGING HEADACHE for SIX DAYS. So I was sick in hospital. But I was sick because I was in hospital.
I was over that by the Thursday but still had to wait for the second MRI on Friday. Meanwhile I'm sitting around reading and getting brought food and checked by FANTASTIC staff in Navan hospital.
I'm out since Friday. All my info is being sent to the neurology Dept in the Mater.
We'll see what happens. I might just need glasses or I might have MS. That's the range we're looking at.

Poor Anto! I hope it’s glasses for you

Sending positive vibes to Anthony

I was going to wax lyrical about the expensive boxer shorts I bought but Anto's thing seems more important

 

[therealjohnny]

Gamechanging


l'll just say that

 

[Anthony]

Update: follow up appointment in the Mater in scheduled for 7th July. Not too bad. I was told it could take a year.

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

Keeping the fretting fingers crossed for you

Not to undermine the seriousness of Anthony's health, I would like to hear about the boxers

I have been throwing out boxers with holes in them, and well, I'm hitting somewhat of a shortage

TK Max for all your undercarriage support needs.
Throw away all the old ones.

I'll take a look

Wait, isn't that place just a grab bag of various designers and discontinued stuff?
I'm looking to make a long term commitment to a quality brand of bollock comfort

But I will investigate
Thx

Factory seconds for sure.

I've never gone beyond entry level for boxers. Keep us up to date.

you often get out of season stuff in tk maxx; e.g. light summer shoes in october, that sort of thing.
