Just got a piss shot in the comfort of my own home.
    #7847568 - 01/08/08 11:58 AM (16 years, 24 days ago)

I've got a nasty flu, and the last few days was retaining over a gallon of fluids. as I'm a cardiac patient that's bad news. To make things worse I noticed today that whenever I lie down, I start coughing up fluids, probably due to the fluid retention giving me some degree of pulmonary edema when lying down.

I called a doc, he came over with an assistant, examined me and gave me a whopping 8cc intramuscular injection (ouch) of a diuretic drug to get rid of the excess fluids.

And I'm running to and from the bathroom ever since so I'll likely have good news in the follow-up appointment tomorrow.

You gotta love Dutch health care - no money exchanged hands, the doc takes his bill directly to health care at no additional cost to me. :thumbup:

When you're sick and miserable the last thing on your mind should be the paying of bills.

Of course we know Michael Moore would be the ideal health specimen if our system were somehow different...

For future reference do a google on "elderberry extract".

Good stuff to have around the house.

Well I got drained off sufficiently for most of the problem to be over. After a couple vhours of tossing and tuning I took a glass of Absinthe (the other kind of cough medicine :P) and let exhaustion take its course.

Only got 4 hours of sleep, ending in a cough-o-rama upon awakening, but it'll have to do :smile:

Pulmonary edema is scary as fuck.

Wow man that sounds scary.
Best of health to you brother.
On the plus side at least you have good health care.. if I was in bad condition I'd rather die than go to the hospital and face some $45,000 in bills or whatever they would want to charge me.
