G'day Trendsetters,
What a farker of a month I have had!
Just when we thought we had this shit-full disease by the balls, the bastard of a thing has king hit me and just for good measure has kicked me fair up the gaszots (arse) with steel capped boot on!
I have spent the last 2 weeks bed ridden due to the Crohns disease. I am sick and tired of all the medication and the constant feeling of being so tired and knackered. At present I am taking the following medications;
1. Ciprofloxacin 500 mg 2 x times per day
2. Clarithromycin 250 mg 2 x times per day
3. Clofazimine 200 mg 2 x times per day
4. Metronidazole 400 mg 2 x times per day
5. Rifabutin 200 mg 2 x times per day
6. Methambutol 400mg 1x time per day
7. Gentamicin 160mg daily injections
8. Azathioprine 100 mg 1 x times per day
9. Oxycodone 20 mg 2 x times a day morning and at night
10. Panodol Osteo 650 mg when required during the day
11. Venlafaxine 75 mg 1 per day
12. Nexium 40 mg 1 per day
13. Glucosamine 1500 mg 2 x times per day morning and at night
14. Vitamin D 1000 mg 2 x times per day morning and at night
15. Multivitamin 500 mg 2 x times per day morning and at night
16. Fexofenadine 180 mg 2 x times per day morning and at night
17. Ventolin 100 mg 2 x times per day morning and at night
18. Seretide 250 mg 2 x times per day morning and at night
19. Zolpidem tartrate 10 mg 1 per night when required
I have also just been diagnosed suffering from chronic fatigued syndrome caused by trauma and having 16 general anaesthesia operations over the last two and a half years! I piped up to the specialist “no farken kidding Einstein”
At present my arse feels like a farken dart board lounge lizards, I have had to endure 14 days straight of daily injections of 160mg Gentamicin antibiotics, believe you me trendsetters these farkers do not tickle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
On top of all the medication the bloody abscesses returned to my bowel, this has caused me to be to be extremely depressed over the last two weeks. (i am even thinking of seriously consulting a farken Witch-doctor for help lol)
Three weeks ago. I suddenly a woke at 3.30am in the morning suffering from excruciating pain in the arse; “I honestly thought that a Toyota person had jammed a farken pineapple up my arse and then suddenly decided to pull the thing out quickly leaving all the pointy bits jammed into the side walls of my arse (get the picture lounge lizards!)
I said to my wife calmly, darling can you please get up and call an ambulance, I might need to go to hospital! OK, they were a few farks here and there when I made the request!
My surgeon has allowed my family and I to head down to Victoria to catch up with family and friends for Christmas, unfortunately, I am booked back into hospital on the 13th January 2014 for more bowel surgery.
Folks, I have said this many times! With-out your health, you have nothing! Please take care of yourself this festive season.
A special thanks to you all the forum members for all your well wishes and your PMs and phone calls over the last 6 weeks! I will not forget your camaraderie!
PS, my family and I would like to wish you all a “Merry Christmas and a safe and prosperous New Year!”
Kind regards,
Paul (RLI)
