Doom

[evildrem]

So, following the Doctor's appt this morning it would appear I have to go have my chest x-rayed. Oh joy! There is part of me that is hoping this means I have TB. That's a very goth disease and it means I can be all pale and interesting and languish. I've always wanted to languish..

Those of you of a medical persuasion can probably tell me whether this is something I should be concerned over. I think I ran out of 'concerned' juice some time last month.

I also have to lose a stone and a half in weight since I am not the optimum weight for my height. I'm not obese apparently but the doctor wants all my stats in the green (as it were) before they do any more prodding around to find out why my body hates me.

Oh and due to the lung problems I am not to exercise a lot, so the weight will have to come off by diet change.

So no cigarettes, no alcohol, no chocolate, no take-aways and no cheese.

Can someone just shoot me now please?

Still, one bright spot in the sea of DOOOM is that my lascivious lastrega has just posted the new part of WIP called The Phoneician Caper in her LJ. It is a thing of joy as always. Go read and then beg her for more. Shameless begging always turns her on..

And my Magnificent Seven season one dvds turned up in the post this morning. So that was good.

Please excuse me, I'm going to be over here in the dark corner, reading porn and attempting to rationalize why developing a dependency on a Class A drug would not be a good response to all these exciting health revelations!

Oh darlin'. If you don't feel like it's too much of an imposition, could you email me some facts privately about what's going on with you? And what they are doing?

I love Sonia's story. She is a marvel and makes my day.

You have a package enroute. Please let me know if and when it arrives at your doorstep. Hope you like. And I'm the dimwit that opened it and put it back. Had to see what it looked like before shipping to the UK

Oh, shit, how terrible. *pets you*

I don't think getting your chest xrayed necessarily means something bad. Unless they find something, then it'll be bad. But it's probably worse if they do the xray and then don't find anything, coz then you don't have a diagnosis. Which sucks ass. So if they do find something, and it's treatable, then it's good. But bad, coz it's never good to have something wrong. But it's worse to have something wrong that can't be treated. *nods solemnly*

No chocolate, though... *shudders* That's evil.

*sends heal-y thoughts*

X-ray? Meep!
I hope it turns out to be nothing serious. TB, even if you call it consumption (which I think is gothier) is not fun.

TB *not* good. I will hope that it is just something that sounds cool, but is easy to get rid of. Maybe Pontiac's Disease?

Aww, man. *hugs* I really hope you get better very soon!

Well, that does leave sex, and its little sister slash...

Hope this is no biggie, just a little scare to make you take better care of yourself. ***hugs***
