Surgery and a lesson learned

Well I had to have some surgery done, nothing major with an estimated 1-2 night stay in Hospital. The surgery went well, but I developed an infection at the 2 IV sights that turned into a blood infection, I had to go back in hospital because of being stubborn,  I put off going to the doctor's about it, because I figured it would go away, besides I had stands to build wood to cut etc.[ yea that's what my wife said]  for the past week I had been feeling bad  having the spins and getting tired real easy [ of course I said zero to the wife about it] That morning I went out to clear brush,not even an hour in, I started to get real dizzy and weak, the worst I felt, so I headed  back to the house,it was a long dam walk for such a short distance, made it inside, went to sit down  passed out and  fell to the floor. Not sure for how long but when I came to, I couldn't get up, I was there for 2 hrs  until the wife came home from work, I could see the clock and I can say, time does not fly by. I took a red light ride back to hospital, for a 12 day stay. I was real sick but I made it, I was another 6 weeks with some heavy meds, resting at home before I was back to near normal. I am still taking a lot of flack from the wife and family over it.

Wow, scary stuff, hope all is well now!

Making through another tough ordeal, glad you're alright now.

Thanks, funny thing is I wasn't scared, just mad at the fact I was down again, when I could of avoided it. I didn't just all of a sudden get that way, I was feeling bad for awhile but ignored the problem and did not let on to the wife. She was already going thru some other problems. Yes, all is well now.

Hope you get well soon. I miss your posts. This year I missed my deer hunt because like you I was stubborn and didn't get attention sooner. When I did the meds messed me up and made it unsafe to carry a rifle. Besides I wouldn't be able to hit a barn door. Safety first!!! I really miss your stories about your family and your hunts. Hope things get better for you.

Thanks, I have missed typing at you all.
