Minor complaints thread (2 Viewers)

[GO]

My post about sleeping a lot since my trip to Dublin on Friday was put in "minor pleasures" rather than "minor complaints" where it meant to go. I was asleep most of Sunday and despite not feeling the best I pushed myself to do a lot of cleaning yesterday. I feel all stiff and a slightly nauseous today and don't feel like doing anything. This has gone on long enough - I rarely get sick and I'm not good at coping with it.

Check your iron levels!

I was anaemic didn't know it,felt like an old man... getting tired and sick ...Full of iron now and I feel like the original gaz

I was taking the wrong anti psychotics for 12 days* until Thursday before last.
Apart from feeling a bit tired I'm OK again now thankfully.
*Given them pharmacy by mistake

This is good advice for everyone.

thats yer man on TodayFM on a sunday? I think I caught his show in the car a couple of times and it was decent.

but why someone would stand in Fairview Park in the rain rather than just stay at home, save your money, and turn on the radio, is beyond me.

His show is alright
He's a sound lad
His live show is a bit of a laugh actually, there's much worse shit out there!

No rain in Fairview, massive circus tent that holds 8000 people so it's all indoors

I know I've been at big gigs where Van Morrison played, Slane, a Bob Dylan gig... No recollection

when people say to you 'wow! temu! i don't know how they make money! it's weird!'

and you say 'well, yeah, there's a chance it's forced labour'

and their response is 'jeez, way to make me feel bad'.

I've taken to Guinness, and even that has made a difference in terms of iron/anaemia.

In other news, last night at work I was smoking a cigarette, then the lift full of stuff landed. So I put the fag out and stuck the butt in my back pocket so as not to litter.

This stupid eunach security guy follows me in EXCUSE ME SIR NO SMOKING. I showed him the cigarette butt and I "said I just don't want to litter. I don't enjoy putting cigarette butts in my pocket".

THE SMOKING AREA IS OVER THERE.

Well, like every other day I've come here in the last ten years, no one adheres to that rule. Especially not today. You didn't stop anyone else smoking, all day. Not even that guy who walked into the lift with what v much looked like a lit spliff.

I didn't want my cigarette butt on the floor and I got mugged off for it. You just can't win sometimes. Do I just look easy to pick on or something?

On the train. Hordes wandering about asking can they take seats.

A: you can choose a seat for free in the online booking
b: if you don't, it says your seat number on the ticket.
C: if the seat is free, it lights up green.

Yet I'm sound here listening to seat negotiations...

This is not fun for my wife. She had two plates and twelve screws put in her ankle and the hospital sent her home with a prescription for paracetamol and ibuprofen.
Thankfully she was able to fill out an online form with her health insurer who sent out a prescription for stronger stuff without her having to actually talk to anyone. Should note though that they would have had the records, we originally attended one of their minor injury clinics who x-rayed her ankle and told her it was beyond their ability to treat.

fun weekend; my wife's foot started to swell on friday and we weren't sure if it was just that she was getting more mobile; but by saturday early afternoon, it was a case of 'i'm taking you in'. 12 hours in the mater again. someone i know recently had sepsis from an infected wound, so i was very concerned that infection could have gotten into her bone. in the end, thankfully that looks OK but she has cellulitis in her foot, and is on 'nuke it from orbit' levels of antibiotics, presumably to kill off any chance of it spreading.

thankfully i've not much experience of A&Es in general but it's interesting to see how much garda time is taken up with it. the other night i got talking to some gardai who had been accompanying someone waiting t be seen for 26 hours; and there were three gardai with him. they were there for at least two hours after i was talking to them too.

And there always seems to be at least one person with a Garda escort whenever I’m in grown-up A&E (not so much in kids A&E).

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

I pretty much haven't gone to adult a&e since I stopped skating/BMX. So that's 30+ years.

 

[Reets]

I don’t mind waiting around so I’m the designated A&E person in my family.
The Mater manages to top Limerick Regional for “WTF” moments. The prisoners handcuffed to Guards always makes for an interesting chats though.

I was there with my Nana 15+ years ago when a prisoner went to go to the toilet and a woman ran in too. We all heard them having sex until the Garda was able to get the door open. It must have been planned, so it was pretty impressive.

Cellulitis is supposed to be unbelievably painful, so she has my sympathies.

Haven't been to A+E in 25 years myself

Last time I needed that sort of medical attention was 15 years ago. I'd cycled into the back of a taxi. Someone hailed him and he jammed on and pulled in, while I was looking the wrong way.

I’ve only been to A&E once for myself when my appendix tried to kill me last Christmas. Any broken bones have been sorted by a clinic.

 

[magicbastarder]

the song 'last christmas' has probably taken on a different meaning for you so.

should mention, that was sorted in a VHI swiftcare clinic rather than A&E. six stitches in the chin.
