My battery just zap my spinal cord trying to cause numbingness in my back and legs but they forgot to explain to me that I couldn't really be by a welder and two months later
Ooooffta. How does that feel going off? I had a defibrillator implanted under my arm. That thing never went off, but my old roommate... his went off. Like 3 times. He said he went across the room. He was not a small man.

His name is Michael Kelly. Blackest Irishman I know. 6' about 320lbs.

Do you happen to know what a TENS unit feels like imagine that in the lower half of your body going through all its settings one right after the other sometimes twice but you never knew when it would go off I will say that when it worked it did get rid of my cramps in my legs was able to stand up straight didn't have to have the wife full my legs out of my chest so there was that but three and a half years of it going off randomly at different times was a bit much :hump:

Funny Chicago 6 flags story. Was right before I went into the hospital, so I was bag holder. Let me set the stage.

I'm about to sit down on a hot sticky bench, just got a beer. I'm wearing 4 backpacks, 5 wet towels, 4 pairs of flip flops, and 3 1/2 pairs of sunglasses. 3 of the park cups are dripping sprite poweraid combo down my leg.

In the distance I hear a beat.

Oh, what's this? A treat for the bag holder? Enjoy your coaster, I'm getting a parade!

I nestled my overburdened back into the sprinkle sprinkled bench and took a sensible sip of my beer. It was $17

The beat got louder, I can hear a bunch of stairs too. Rat tatat Takata rattatarrata. Sick!

Around the corner came the first Nike shoe, and bouncing basketball. Each pair of shoes and bouncing basketballs had the same purple shirt. Faith Baptist summer outreach. Every kid. Maybe 10 busloads came by. Dribbling basketballs in synk like a marching band. Way better than any shit parade. And I couldn't stop laughing for like an hour after.

Like 400 basketballs. Old Guss is out behind the free throw challenge booth inflating basketballs. Grumbling to himself. Always basketballs. Stupid basketballs.

Mornin all. Chatterbox here...:D

Much respect to those of yaz goin' through the medical shit. My wife's right there with some of ya. Had afib for years...took/takes all of the expensive drugs (none buzzworthy, unfortunately) daily. I'm sure some of you know the names of em as well. Had a few ER incidents...then she finally got an ablation and that set things right again. Still taking the $20 pills...but at least there was a fix of sorts. I'm lucky...other than breaking down all over/being in pain all the time...most of my fun is in my head. No good drugs there either. I refused to take the SSRI's after my son passed. No pills ever fixed anything in my world....and I knew better from past stupidity to not fall into the bottle....so I just smoke and ride the roller coaster. Today feels like we're on the level....and that's good...

Wet out there...but not anything of note. Got out the pump yesterday and filled my water buckets for my grow in the garage from the creek. Heehee...no water or heat down there. Talk about not automated... (except for me) Water was 7.5pH....180ppm and 38F. Who needs a swim?

Have you folks checked into any of the patient/manufacture assistance programs available? Surprising of some of the resources available even if you think your income will/would prevent you from participating.
