He sure did get hit hard poor fellow.He's trending towards better. Some days are better than others. Sat down in the low 90s and even hit 88 on Sunday. Most of the time, sitting 93-96. Still dizzy and vague feeling. Runs down quickly. Definitely starting to feel better though. I feel like half of what I have to say anymore is don't do this, no leave that alone, and no... you really shouldn't try to do that right now! He is wanting to do stuff. Doing a little more. He just wants to do more than he can and needs someone to remind him to slow down and do things that are easy to do in chunks so he doesn't overdo.
Studying is insane. I need another 2-3 weeks. I have another 3 days. I'm, hopefully, going to make it through. We'll see. I have an assignment to beg the instructor to take late then a big programming assignment to scramble through. If the other guy gets my current assignments in, I might be able to skip the last of the other assignments and just take the hit to my grade. Need to see though. Need a solid 74% to pass for graduation. Would rather it be better, but I just want to make it through at this point!
not sure what is up but prayers are outgoing for Greg and you
Yikes, you two have had a decent share @missy! Is Greg having a PCNL, where they enter the kidney through the back?
Thanks Dandi. Not sure if they will take additional measures if they have trouble. Right now I believe he’s getting a lithotripsy but due to the general anesthesia perhaps if necessary it might become more invasive a procedure. I wish I could speak with the surgeon beforehand. This whole Covid situation makes almost every aspect of life more challenging.
I appreciate your good thoughts. ❤
Could they have you on speaker phone to talk with the surgeon before surgery?
Sending you hugs.

Good. Grief.
Spent aaallllll afternoon at the ophthalmology clinic yesterday. Ultimately saw a retinal specialist. Told me I have severe oxygen depletion inmy left eye due to restricted blood flow. My vision is, at this point, normal, but I'll ultimately go blind in that eye if it's not treated. Luckily, the stent in my carotid may well fix it and, if it doesn't, there are other ways forward. Will have an ocular angiogram in August and start ANOTHER phase of Mrs-B medical care.
Aaaaand the hits just keep on coming. I frigging expect to live FOREVER after all of this! If I have something wrong with my body, by the end of this, we will have found it! Nothing's gonna come popping out at me unexpectedly! This is a good thing - I know. But it comes at a price.
