A woman went to the doctor and said, "I've got a bad back."
The doctor said, "It's old age."
The lady responded, "I want a second opinion!"
"Okay", said the doctor, "You're ugly as well."
A man went to the doctor with a strawberry stuck up his bum.
The doctor said 'Don't worry I've got some cream for that.'

Hello everyone, I had blood work done before my doctors appointment last week. The results said I was anemic. So after a B 12 shot and a iron supplement the last 4 or 5 days have been the best for me in a long time.
What I was perceiving that my pains were the contributing factor of my psyche of hopelessness turned out in part to be because I am anemic.
Might sound weird but I am actually a little relieved.
Fixed the refrigerator in the garage. The freezer worked but the refrigerator side didn't. It ended up being the defrost heating element.
I will try to catch up on what has been going on in the CDR.
Hope all is well!?
Good news that they managed to find that out and treat it Ray,
So glad you are feeling better in yourself.

Good evening all
My surgery is all done and dusted.
They took a 3 cm diameter circle around the melanoma and grafted skin from my neck onto it.
I have a wound about 5 cm long with stitches on my neck and goodness knows how many stitches around the graft - I lost count after 18.
Then they put a special dressing that helps skin grafts over it all and stitched that to my face!
I am bruised and my eye has almost closed up so I look as if I have done a few rounds in the ring with Tyson, so I'm not a pretty sight. All I'm missing is the bolt in my neck and I'd have a great Hallowe'en costume.
I have to wait 2 weeks now to see if the graft has been successful - I don't know what they'll do if it isn't.
It's pretty painful and I feel as if I've been through the mill today but all your posts have helped cheer me up again so thank you for that.
Anyway I'm off to bed now so nos da and take care.

I couldn't find out what you did either Mark but I'm glad you're on the mend too.

Tripped in the garage, lost my balance, came crashing down on all the metal bits on the garage door. Tore a nice jaggedy gash in my elbow. Whacked my wrist & head on the door too. Still bandaged, but healing.

Another one is 'Your skin is like peaches - football peaches', ( funnier when you say it).
I'm so glad to finally find one of your quotes ? I'd be worried if he said my skin is like peaches though cause they're kinda hairy. He wouldn't get past the peaches part before I punched him ? and if he got as far as the football part I'd have to punt him. Missed you and hope stuffs getting better for you?

That's not weird. I've been taking calcium and d3 and it's been helping me. If I get kidney stones again I'll deal with it. The difference in the way I feel is sooo worth it ?
