Getting older and slower (i'm sick)
Posted: Tue Jan 22, 2013 9:22 pm
Guys/Gals and all my tractor buddies. I just found out i have prostate cancer plus my heart needs a defibulator. I haven't been myself in many years now. I have no energy plus i'm always tired. Lately i been sleeping more and more too. I can't even sit at the puter for too long too before the pain starts in my lower back. My point is this is a silent killer so get to your doctor for the prostate test and get a stress test often.
My own doctor missed this with me having a blood loss for many years. But its part my fault too i hated going for tests. My new diabetic doctor caught this with a full blown blood test. This guy is very sharp. He saved my life by me getting a handle with my diabeties and now he may have saved my life finding the cancer early. Right now I can feel my heart miss step a beat every now and then too. But they tell me they can fix it. But my favorite passion is welding and with a defibulator i won't be welding anymore. But on a bright side i can work on my tractors if i have more energy...its not the end of the road yet. Godbless; Bigbill
BTW; I say this because the hospital tech told me you want to see the younger crowd comming in there for this lately. No matter what age it doesn't matter go to the doctor and be tested anyway. Its just a blood test for prostate cancer and get a stress test to be sure your ok. I'm lucky to have made it to 62yo so far. Not only are my tractors going to be rebuilt but my body is going to be restored too.
I been living each day as if it was my last for many years anyway. My new grandson at 2 1/2 yo has every toy i can get him.
