QUESTION OF THE WEEK - 09-25-2023

 What lifts your spirits when life gets you down?

SUNDAY TALKING...

I have experienced three heart attacks.  Today awakened with a very sore left arm and chest pain.  These are symptoms they talk about on TV all the time that tell us we should try to get to hospital or call 911 for transport to the emergency room.  This just does not feel like the other three. Sitting at my computer contemplating this dilemma a rather large belch occurred and all is well.  That took care of the chest pain but what about the left arm pain...suddenly remembering my flu shot this week in my left arm.  Did you all  know that I am a hypochondriac? The used to be a television show called MARCUS WELBY MD and after watching it the same symptoms from that show would hit me the next morning.

A man left for work one Friday afternoon. But, being payday, instead of going home, he stayed out the entire weekend partying with the boys and spending his entire paycheck.

When he finally appeared at home, Sunday night, he was confronted by a very angry wife and was barraged for nearly two hours with a tirade befitting his actions.

Finally his wife stopped the nagging and simply said to him, "How would you like it if you didn't see me for two or three days?" To which he replied, "That would be fine with me."

Monday went by and he didn't see his wife. Tuesday and Wednesday came and went with the same results. Come Thursday, the swelling went down just enough where he could see her a little out of the corner of his left eye.

THE  CASHEW SHELL IS POISONOUS

Cashews are never available to consumers in their shells due to the toxic nature of the cashew shell. Cashews are a member of the same family as poison ivy, Anacardiaceae. Like poison ivy and other members of the family, part of the cashew plant contains an oily chemical called urushiol, which can be fatal if ingested. The irritants are found in the shell oil but not in the nuts themselves. To ensure safety, cashew seeds must undergo a high-temperature roasting process to eliminate the harmful urushiol oil before being made available for consumption.

Pistachios Can Spontaneously Combust

It turnd out there's a price to pay for how tasty and nutritious pistachios are: Under the right circumstances, they can spontaneously combust.  Everyone’s favorite shelled nut is especially rich in fat, which is highly flammable. Thankfully, that only becomes a problem when pistachios are packed too tightly during shipping or storage. It’s important to keep the nuts dry lest they become moldy — but if they’re kept too dry and there are too many of them bunched together, they can self-heat and catch fire without an external heat source.

Me: Awfully bold of you to assume I’ve peaked.

 Me: I’m not saying a word without my lawyer present.     
Cop: You ARE a lawyer.   
Me: So where’s my present?!

What you don't know won't hurt you...???

I believe that I have mentioned my recent coughing syncope.  It happened while driving and only blanked me out for a minute.  That was enough for me to awaken in the oncoming traffic lane, heading for a ditch.  Thankfully no cars were in the oncoming lane.

My children learned of this error and insisted the information be shared with my doctor.  He received the news with great concern and began requesting a load of tests for me.  All but one has returned with no problems detected.  However a Holter Monitor was prescribed for me.  It was worn for 48 hours and returned with no results.  As second monitor was prescribe for another 48 hours.  Something disrupted the Holter and nothing was seen so a third monitor was prescribed.  

Results from the third monitor were never reported but I was  mailed an e-Patch Holter to wear stuck to my chest for 14 days. At least I may shower with this one and it does not have the wires the other had.  I am confident the results (if any are ever reported) will be good.  

I keep cough drops next to me in the car and at the slightest feeling of a cough coming on, one is there to stall off a syncope. Thankfully I have excellent insurance...hum could that be the basis of all these tests???
