RE: Butch and Sundance: An Afterword To Their Story. Part 2

in #history7 years ago

I'm going to be spending half the time in Australia and half in NZ so hopefully it will be a great trip! Although I'm currently in the middle of a gout attack so I really hope that goes down very quickly! 3 days now. I don't know if you have had but it my goodness, it's savage!

Haha, well, technically, each post has some sort of awesome nickyhavey patented personality quirk in it so that's part of the package Lord Janton lol. This is going to be about how to conquer one of the toughest challenges in the UK, should you ever wish to put your redneck beer can down and give it a go. Actually, no need to answer that, I already know what you're going to say haha.

Well, I've found out from another PHC member that rep and earnings are pretty much based on something called vests? Not the sleeveless vests that you wear but these vests allegedly make up Steem Power. You may be right but either way, enjoy the beer!

Sort:  

Howdy sir nickyhavey! dang, I've heard of gout but don't really know what it does, what are the symptoms?

as far as the vests, yeah I keep hearing about them but don't understand them of course, it's like whoever designed this whole system made it so the typical person can't understand it. I'm sure you could though, if you studied it.
Get well soon!

It's basically like someone is sawing into the nerve endings in your big toe! You can't put anything on it, even lying down at night, having bedsheets on it is excruciating. It's a form of arthritis. I still can't believe it's that. One of my GP friends thinks I've just shredded a tendon in my foot... Either way, it hurts!

Well I have studied it and I still haven't got a clue how it works Lord Janton haha. Now where's that redneck beer? I think I need some painkillers!

oh man! sir nickyhavey, I've never heard of such a condition. Does it look like a skin rash. If it's an internal injury from a torn tendon then why is it so sensitive that you can't have anything touching it? That is bizarre, I hate that. If you can't put anything on it then pain killers internally has to help right, like something strong.. morphin or something. I'm so sorry to hear about that! what is the prognosis? how long does it last normally?

One of my GP friends who may know a bit more thinks it's extensor tendinitis in the big toe from over exertion. It exhibits the same symptoms as gout but either way it's horrendous!

It's really swollen on the right foot but it's not red - tenosynovitis. Anti-inflammatories, calf stretching and ice seem to be the order of the day. Could last a week, if it's still painful after 7 days then I'll have to see a GP.... Really bad timing!

oh ok, what about pain killers so you can at least get some sleep at night?
yes, that thing has to heal up soon! Don't worry, it will heal up in plenty of time before you leave.

Thanks Lord Janton. I have some codeine as well which I alternate with the anti-inflammatories. I seem to be sleeping alright in the night... Waking up... Wow, that's a tough one! See what Day 4 brings now I have some treatments to try out.

I hope those treatments work well sir nickyhavey!
