I am dealing with what I think might be a DVT in my right calf. It started two days ago, but is worse today. Most likely caused by too many hours at my desk, flying a ship conicidentaly named the Normandy. The pain is mostly unbearable. Walking is difficult as I found out taking my morning pics. It is a bloodclot in my leg, the danger is it may break free and travel to my lung, heart or brain. In my lungs it might make breathing extremely difficult, or cause a heart attack, in my brain a stroke.<\/p>\n<p>Last time I went to a hospital for this the idiot doctor at Peace River hospital thought I was drunk and refused to give me a two dollar blood test that might have confirmed this. He implied I was drunk because i was slurring my words. Signs also of a small stroke.<\/p>\n<p>So I will fire up my gen later hookup my treadmill and try to walk. I will try to walk a quarter mile. That will either kill me or cure me. I pray not for me but for my cats.<\/p>\n<p>I gotta go a bad headache has come my way it might mean the clot is breaking up. I better go feed the cats.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Getting up and down the stairs was interesting as was feeding the cats. All i can manage right now is a collaose on my bed, head and chest pounding, the pain in my leg got worse again. To prove how bad this is. I am using my tablet to write this post. I really dont enjoy that.<\/p>\n<p>Today is 17 hours 30 minutes between sunrise and sunset.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_17638\" style=\"width: 2570px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/rodbinder.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/06\/20210606_111710-scaled.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17638\" data-attachment-id=\"17638\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/rodbinder.com\/journal\/2021\/06\/06\/jun-6-d-day\/20210606_111710\/\" data-orig-file=\"http:\/\/rodbinder.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/06\/20210606_111710-scaled.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2560,1152\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.2&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;SM-A515F&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1622978230&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;1.74&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;40&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0029411764705882&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"20210606_111710\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"http:\/\/rodbinder.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/06\/20210606_111710-300x135.jpg\" data-large-file=\"http:\/\/rodbinder.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/06\/20210606_111710-1024x461.jpg\" class=\"For ecercuse i murdered thistlse with hoe wp-image-17638 size-full\" style=\"border: 6px solid #000000;\" src=\"http:\/\/rodbinder.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/06\/20210606_111710-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1152\" srcset=\"http:\/\/rodbinder.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/06\/20210606_111710-scaled.jpg 2560w, http:\/\/rodbinder.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/06\/20210606_111710-300x135.jpg 300w, http:\/\/rodbinder.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/06\/20210606_111710-1024x461.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/rodbinder.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/06\/20210606_111710-768x346.jpg 768w, http:\/\/rodbinder.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/06\/20210606_111710-1536x691.jpg 1536w, http:\/\/rodbinder.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/06\/20210606_111710-2048x922.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-17638\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">This was a beautiful herb garden and could be again.
