Very bad time.
purring is in progress for your hand, Tiger fur hiz howze
Fred Williams wrote in message ... I'm becoming increasingly convinced that this is a flare up of the infection, because it's starting to swell up my hand again. I'll give it just another hour or so and see what's happening with it. I already had the operation, but they did it through little keyhole incisions and injected saline through the tendon sheath like it was a garden hose. That's a weird feeling I can tell you. But If this is the infection again, I'll probably be in for more of it. I really don't like this part. The cats don't like being left alone while I'm at the hospital either. It's no fun for any of us.

Fangu, Stormmee. Just an update. I have my pills and everything is going not too badly. There is still some swelling in the finger, but it may be due to irritation from the exercises which really pull on the tendon. There is no redness and it doesn't seem to be spreading. So we'll continue for now and maybe it'll go away. Fred. -- Regards, Fred (remove FFFF from my email address to email me) |

Very bad time.
Those purrs worked very well. The hospital got me through emergency in
record time, but the diagnosis was that I was going too hard on the exercises they gave me and the swelling was due to the tendon being irritated, not due to the bacteria. So I have a clean bill of health and if the infection is not back now, it is unlikely to return. It's a load off my mind, Now I just have the regular nightmares to worry about. Fred.

But so far, s good. It's supposed to be OK now. Tine will tell. That's GREAT news, Fred! Your first post really freaked me out, what with the risk of losing a finger. I'm soooo glad it's "so far, so good" and hope you got your medications back yesterday...you'll need to keep taking Auntie Biotic for awhile, I suspect. Melissa -- Remove the first m to reply |

There is now very little chance of the infection coming back now, but wow did I get through the Emergency Room quickly this last time. Turns out that the exercises to recover mobility in the finger, I was doing were irritating the tendon and causing the swelling that I had noticed. There were no more bacteria involved, so I got out of the hospital and went to a party. I'm even starting to play piano a little, although I can't quite squeeze a clothes pin yet. The finger is still too weak. Likely tomorrow I will, though. Starting to catch up on my laundry and cleaning after a week of not using my right hand. Fred. We'z all furry happpy Fred is staying home today. But we know he missed cleaning ourownselves litterboxes. Grrrrrrrr.

I guess many of you have the same system. We'z not to crazy about mechanical boxes, but could be willin tu lern. Have you or ennyone exoerience with the CitiKitty toilet training system? If this is reasonably effective, I think it would be the way to go. We cats are already curious about the toilet and enny water flowing. It fascinates usses! It's a technology already in place in the best compartments and it wood mean zero fuss for our hooman wif no worries about hisownself forgettin tu clean our boxes out and usses havin to go inna stinkin old litter. Wen that happenz, we leaf hisownself messages, but his memory duzn't improf. Well at least it's not tuu often. Ifn we coud use da toylet like hisownself, we'd feel more equal and more like famili.
