Thanks for the very generous offer! :thumbsup It's a little premature but nonetheless appreciated.

I'm getting ready to go get checked out now. I'll be back on as soon as I get some news.

:1orglaugh I actually would have missed it if not for the quotes.

:321GFY ?

:D I got a chuckle out of that one.



Thanks for all the well-wishes, everyone. I sure hope they can give me a concrete diagnosis today.

best wishes and good luck

hope you feel better.. that doesn't sound too good..

wow man i hope you will be good as new soon....health is the most important thing so try to keep as much of it as you can :)

Happy you can take a little joke.
I really do hope it is something simple that can be fixed easily.

I wish you the best with your eye ailment

my vote is for diabetes. I suggest a healthy diet asap. best of luck

congrats on the 20k! keep on postin!

Congrats and good luck to whatever you do buddy!!:)

congrats and goodluck to you

lso go and buy some special vitamins for your eyes. That is all you can do so far. :(
So pity....
Congrats with 20K.

congrats on the posts, good luck with the doctor.

DAMN man, that SUCKS! Hopefully the U.S. won't have the Canadian healthcare system soon ... :Oh crap

damn that sucks dude
I hope there is somehting they can do for it.

congrats on the 20K

congrats on the 20k and goodluck on the eye treatment. wish you all the best.

I hope that's not what I have to look forward to at 20k

Congratulations , I hope that I will have postcount like you

Ouch, that sucks man... hopefully it's something minor and easy to fix.

28 weeks?? thats terrible.. Not sure where you are but you should call around and find out what wait times are for different doctors, here's a couple numbers to check out.

Dr. Tenhove, - Neuro-opthamologist- 166 Brock St.(Hotel Dieu Hospital-eye clinic) Kingston, Ontario Phone#(613)-544-3400 ext.2600

Dr Sam Nisbett, Opthalmologist - 814-388 Portage Avenue (Boyd Bldg.) Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada R3C 0C8 Phone # 1-204-943-7823

congrats and holy fuck man... If you believe in god you better start praying. Going blind is the worst thing that can happen to someone imo...

and like others have said, hop over the border and see some US doctors if the waits are that long in Canada. Might save your eye sight if you do

oh boy, Hope you get well soon.
Congratulations on that 20k posts!

:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

best of luck man!

Are you sorted, hope everything is ok or at least able to be corrected without too much hassle. All the best....

worst news I've heard all day. I hope that the Dr. can figure out what the problem is. I have faith in the Canadian health system. I hope it doesn't let you down

Congrats on the 20k.... and you are in our prayers, hopefully it's nothing to serious :)

Congrats Man

:upsidedow

any news yet?

yeah I'd appreciate some news too

good luck dagwolf, hope everything will be ok for you...

Question from southern neighbor:

Is the long wait for "free" health care ... If you want to pay cash can you get a doctor quicker?

Any news on Dag??? Did I miss a thread??? Should have been to the ER Monday.

Sorry to hear that man.. I hope u get better soon

News it is... Ok, I went to the E.R. and they admitted me.

You know how they have those signs saying people with the most critical problems will be treated first? Well, for once I got rushed past everyone. It turns out my blood pressure was 244/170. They stuck me in a bed for 24 hours and treated me for high blood pressure.

Apparently I've suffered some kidney damage somehow; they performed ultrasound exams of my heart and kidneys before letting me go. They basically gave me a couple of prescriptions and said take them or die.. My head's still spinning.

I'm going to rest up. More news when I get it.

P.S. They say my eyes should get better as my blood pressure gets under control... I'm not convinced, but I'm hopeful.

good luck man

i hope it's not bad as it sound and docs are right. my best wishes.

HOw's your feeling today?

Still waiting to see the doctor for a checkup. My vision's still pretty messed up but I'm getting a little bit of my night vision back.

...

Well congrats and good luck for tomorrow.
