Weekend Experiences

New Truck Same Booolshizz...

Someone in Hivelandia was asking me how things were going with the recent upgrade of the eqipment I drive. Well readers I can honsestly say that the Trucks fine. Sammi Jo is loving it.

The Opertor is Fu@$k'd.

Friday night Saturday mornings trip to pick up a preloaded trailer 187 miles north of my home base in Lake City, FL. Was probably one of the roughest trip I ever have taken. Just an 8 hour turnaround that took almost 13.

Here is what I went thru since Friday at 1pm.

We sat down at Marion Street Bistro that is now NO longer my fave place to eat. Horrible service and wings were undercooked. By 7 pm I was in the fetal position in extreme pain.

I have sciatica and am in the middle of a flare up. So the back pain with a belly full of what felt like battery acid and broken glass was brutal. Add that to a case of walking pneumonia that even my ivermectin is not helping with. Maybe whatever killed Kyle Busch of NASCAR fame is in my chest?

I was projectile vomiting in the kitchen sink by 8 pm

I had to leave at 4 am. I tried unsuccessfully to sleep. I took a very hot shower. It did not help. I left out of here sometime just after midnight.

I only made it to the NB scale house. (25 miles) The pain was unbelievable. I went in and puked my guts out @3:47 in the restroom. I got quite a bit of it out. I made the trip to Vidalia and somehow back again. I went the back roads 129/441 due to holiday traffic as to have less interaction with other vehicles.

I layed down after I ate some toast and saltine crackers shortly after I got here yesterday at noon. I just got up. It is 8 am here.

Yes I almost called @pooky-jax to come to the scalehouse and take me to the E.R. Maybe I would get lucky and get the 1 out of 100 white coat so called doctors that would help and not just pimp me some big pHarma drugs that I can not take because I drive and have random drug screening.

Kyle was found on the floor of his bathroom coughing up blood and passing out. Cause of death was pneumonia that quickly went septic they say due to his driving and the G-forces and elevation changes.

Uhhhhmmmm... Hello!

What do I do for a living again?

What do I do for a living is G forces and elevation but @ 100 mph slower.

Now coughing is like being stabbed with a knife in the rib cages due to the several bouts of throwing up... 😡🤬😡

Perfect storm here. Sciatica flare up mixed with a killer walking pneumonia and top it off with what was most likely food poisoning. I must be a tough old fucker cuz I am still standing... For Now

Thanks for ~~Riding along~~ coughing up a lung and throwing up with a disabled broken backed @krazzytrukker on this W.E. #weekend-engagement number... uh? Hey Kermit @galenkp Help an old trucker out here. We all good?

Feel better soon! If you think you have pneumonia, please go to the ER, we just lost a 42-year-old colleague to untreated pneumonia

Bidden by @deirdyweirdy to give you my two cents on how to recover, here is what I would try for myself if I presented with your conditions.

If you can get to someplace that sells homeopathic remedies (most health foods stores do), try Chelidonium in the lowest potency they have, ideally 6c. Take it three times a day until you start to feel some relief in regards to pneumonia, then reduce to 1 or 2 times a day.

For the apparent food poisoning, Arsenicum is my first thought to help with the vomiting, ideally 30c potency. Take it whenever you feel the nausea coming on, then every 10 to 15 minutes for an hour. If that doesn't help at all, move to Ipecac every 10 to 15 minutes for an hour, in 30c. A third choice would be Nux vomica, 200c, same administration.

All of these remedies are commonly sold in health food stores. If you don't have one of those nearby, try Walgreens or some other large pharmacy, look for combination/formula remedies that seem to be for your conditions, and follow the directions on the package.

Try sipping very hot water to see if that gives you any relief. Gently sniffing peppermint oil can help with nausea.

For continued recovery for your lungs, get some Kali carbonicum 200c and take it twice a day for a couple weeks. this one might be more difficult to find.

You can order all of these from Boiron. It will be easiest to just call them to order, rather than trying to find all these on their website, and they might give you more guidance. But I hope you can find at least some of these nearby so you don't have to wait for your order to arrive.

Jaysus, Mr. Krazzy, that sounds horrific. Please look after yourself, we don't wanna lose you. Cut out the bloody wings and that big pharma shite. That stuff'll kill ya for sure. Perhaps try homeopathy. It's worked bloody well for me. @owasco, can you help this nutter?
