Thread: Important Moosy Update (Read this all the way through)

This post is hard for me to put up. I usually try to keep my personal issues private, but many of you asked for updates on the Moose. I didn’t want to tell everyone one on one individually on this. This saves time for me too. So here goes. Going for gamer friendly ettiquette here. Bare with me.

I’ve been having health problems lately with my kidneys, bladder, and stuff down in that area for the past 2 months now.

I’ve gone to many docs and finally a specialist in the field to determine what’s wrong with me. Final results….you will laugh just like I did on the diagnosis. I have a BSD in me. Bad WW. Actually medical term wise, it’s a bilateral sphincteral disenergia. (sp).

What BSD means is when your bladder builds up that pressure and you got to go. The valve that lets the flow FLOW opens and you empty it all out. Pressure and all.

Well my valve isn’t always opening up to release it all, so I get backwash and build up so to say. Pressure stays to keep it in me. Not good. Imagine a toilet bowl that flushes but not all of it drains before refilling. There’s the yuck there that stays. Best example I can give on that being PG friendly too. Now it forms a pocket cave in the bladder that bangs on the kidneys causing stomach pains and cramps especially when you gotta go. I tried to avoid the bathroom during that time. It hurt so much to do my biz so to say. This causes other complications too. Vomitting, headaches, dizziness, sleeplessness or knocking you straight out without warning (narcolepsy. think Deuce Bigalow).

Moving on….The kidneys drop the waste to the bladder for you to get rid of it. This build up can be forced back up through the tubes to the kidneys from bad valves and pressure. This is poisonous to the kidneys when it does this. Like acid reflux in the stomach. I have one kidney infected this way at a level four state. I get too much higher with it. They will put me on dialysis. I aint looking forward to that either. It’s just worst case scenario for now. That’s the way I think.

I’m not doing anything caffeinated anymore. Mountain Dew free for 2 months now so that a bonus. Drinking plenty of safe fluids (water mainly) and watching my diet big time. Nothing spicy to upset my kidneys. It’s hit and miss at times. No antacids or pain pills with caffeine. I have the good heavier stuff for that. But my energy is much lower and I get tired quicker. I've had probs focussing on the scrolling chat boards or you've noticed more typos from me on the keyboard replies.

Now here’s my schedule of things to come for me. This coming Friday Jun 25th. They are doing some major lab testing on me around 8:45am till 2-3pm.. Blood work EKG, more kidney xrays, the whole Moosy lab rat package. You get the idea. I probably won’t be in any shape to be on the boards that entire day. I hate needles with a passion and I have to be mentally prepped for em or some nurse or lab tech will get hurt, but for getting this all over with I will endure…the best I can.


I will be having a Fun Night game day at my house the following Saturday Jun 26th from 6pm -??? to relax, plays games, chill etc before I have to go to this next part. I do have some new board games I’m dying to break in too..lmao.

Monday Jun 28th. I go into North Kansas City Hospital for surgery. I’ve been told it’s outpatient….hopefully so. I hate hospitals too even though some of my family works there..lmao. I’ll be in a room at 11am waiting for anesthesia and my family to be there.

The operation they are doing is slated for 1pm that day. This (crossing hooves holding back his tears. I don’t like to cry either.) should fix this entire problem or it may get to other more drastic measures. I’m not even thinking about that right now, but I won’t be online Monday or the following next couple days to heal and recuperate. So no JTM or Moose.

For those of you who don’t have my cell its (816) 522-7322. Call me if you want in on those days, but expect a voicemail answering you back. Leave a message and I’ll get back with you when I can. I don’t know what hospital room number either, but they should know it at the front desk if you decide to stop by. Avoid my dad…he’s an asshole. My mom is open to my gaming tendencies. My brothers are. My dad aint...more like hell no. I leave that one up to you if you decide to visit me. I don’t beg…much..lmao. Don't freak the mundanes. All I ask.

If you want my home address to come up Saturday and hang out with the Moose or send a card (not really necessary to do) etc. Call me first. I’ll give you it over the cell. My place is 2 hours roughly from Lamar. Hour and a half from the Burg or Sedalia. Pretty much 20-30 mins from KC anywhere you drive even from St Joe. Columbia I think is 2 hours as well.

That pretty much sums it up on whats going down now. I’m not one to show emotion on it. I do know my limitations. But now you know the facts so they won’t be bantered about. I hate drama too. So joking about this with me aint cool and probably piss me off....unless I start it and open that one up. Highly unlikely I will. I will be steping down as Newbie Eduactor during that time and Brujah Clan helper, but hope to get them back once I return.

GAME ON!!!! (looking for JTM things to do now. Moose has left the building.)

I plan on being at game come hell or high water that Saturday too. I've got some JTM plans I aint pasing up. I will let you know if I can't make game as soon as I know I can't, but not before. I need the game to think on while I'm focussing on healing too. Big Moosy hugs and hi5's all around for taking the time to hear me out. It's much appreciated.
