Pluggers by Rick McKee for May 27, 2022

when I got it weeks ago, all I really remember is the laryngitic thorat

This so so true. When I go to the doctor’s office and they do the usual “have you experienced …?” litany, my answer is “no more than usual”.

Proof that the Golden Years are not so Gold ;-)

How did they get my check off list of health problems?

We got a couple free test kits in the first giveaway. Haven’t had reason to use one. We’re vacc’d and double-boosted, so we’d probably be asymptomatic anyway.

Seems to be the basic list for almost every ailment. The devil is in the details.

List looks like the side-effects for the medications a Plugger has to take. Only thing missing is diarrhea and skin irritations.

Those same symptoms go with so many other maladies, it’s really difficult to tell which ailment it is anymore.

This is also the list of side effects for just about every medication I’ve been prescribed. :) :(

the 4 y.o. MRI of my lungs look like I’ve already had it.

I told someone this about menopause symptoms in 2020. She just laughed at me. :/ She also said “There’s no virus” Followed by “The government is going to spray ‘Covid’ from the clouds and the mask wearers will get it the worst!” Yes.. she is flaky.

Twenty minutes in the doctor’s office and it takes me 4 hours to read through the list of medical conditions! A lot of medical terms that sum up to “old”.

That’s just sad.

Regrettably I have all those symptoms and ailments. Had them long before Covid

If you don’t feel old before you read the ‘Medicare’ survey, you certainly will afterwards. I’m talking about the one that starts out with a series of questions like: ‘Do you have trouble dressing yourself, feeding yourself, going to the bathroom?’ and ending with ‘Do you have a fear of falling?’ I feel 10 years older after going through the list.
