Been away from TUSCL for a couple of weeks and won't be on the board any time soon - just a courtesy FYI since often times we regular board-members wonder what happens when other regular board-members dissappear out of the blue.
For the sake of context - I was in the hospital a couple of days b/c I had a severe nose-bleed that would not stop hemorrhaging; I ended up in the emergency room where I subsequently went unconscious waiting to be treated.
Back home now but due to the blood-loss my hemoglobin went from my normal level of close to 15 down to about 9; thus I'm feeling weak and a bit disoriented. This is the 3rd time in the last 2 years this has happened to me w/ the same results (ended up in emergency room; went unconscious all 3 times waiting to be tended to; and my hemoglobin went way low) - usually takes a few weeks for my hemoglobin to come all the way back up and I start feeling normal again. Adding to the issues my nose was packed for a weak to stop the bleeding; packing is now removed but my nose is all swollen inside and I can barely breathe thru it nor can the mucus drain properly thus I've had to be on antibiotics b/c all the blockage can lead to an infection.
Anyway - not meant as a sympathy thread - just wanted to let it be known I won't be posting for a while - not sure when or if I'll start posting again but if I don't post anymore it'll be b/c I decided to go in a different direction vs not being able to connect from the grave :) - I'll probably log-in periodically to read some reviews every now and then.
All the best,
PC

Man, take care of yourself. It rakes those doctors down there a little while to figure things out, but eventually they tend to get it right (I know this all too well from another situation with someone down there).

Sending prayers for a quick recovery Papi. Don't worry about the strippers missing your money, we'll all buy a couple of extra dances to supplement their income while you're gone.
I don't know what we will do to make up for missing your wisdom and reviews here on TUSCL.

Thanks for posting, Papi. Had wondered why the board had been devoid of pithy comments lately -- and mega-monster reviews. Take good care of yourself, and do check back in with once in a while.

Papi_Chulo, you are in our thoughts and prayers. Get well soon, buddy.

Btw, I have found the Life Extension guys to be legit. They have some recommendations under "integrative solutions" that are relatively cheap and could help out a lot with hemoglobin production, like Taurine:
lifeextension.com
Also, longer-term, there are recommendations to help build platelets to help with Thrombocytopenia, which sounds like it could be the cause of the nosebleeds being that bad to begin with.

Been there, done that in Amsterdam. I was so glad the Dutch speak English better than juice!
Wishing you the best papi. TUSCL won't be the same if you decide not to return.

Papi, take care of yourself. I can certainly understand your absence, but sometimes even a moment on TUSCL could be more than someone wishes. Sometimes there really no time for anything other than the singular task at hand.
Be well, my friend!

Maybe your recent "War and Peace" review took too much out of you and your body reacted badly. Hope you are back in true form very soon. Good luck.

Hello All,
Unfortunately I'm still recovering but def better as time passes - unfortunately I live in a Cuban working-class suburb of Miami and the 3 closest hospitals to me are banana-republic category hospitals and this time around the "cure" I received was worse than the original disease/problem - my recovery has been mostly dealing w/ the side-effects of the "cure" and part of my recovery has me being on antibiotics for almost a month - and unfortunately I had a setback earlier this week where I ended up back in Emergency due to a very bad reaction of a strong antibiotic w/ another med I was taking (but this time I asked my brother to drive me to a much better hospital about 30/40 minutes away) - feeling better now that the other med was discontinued and that my bad-reaction cleared my system, but still on the antibiotics.
I've felt well-enough to post for about a week or two now but I was thinking I didn't wanna get sucked back into posting on TUSCL all the time as in the past and thought I needed to do something more-productive w/ my time at least for the short-term - unfortunately I like strip-clubs a lot and thus TUSCL is like a guilty pleasure :) - and unfortunately I've never been good at moderation as to only be able to post on TUSCL sparingly :) - thus IDK if I'll be posting or not in the near-future but I'll probably be posting this weekend since I don't plan to do much.
I sincerely appreciate all of you who posted above - just taking the time to drop a line on this thread above was def appreciated and and def lifted my spirits considering how crappy and down I was feeling.
Thanks.

I'm glad you're recovering from your illness, but what could be more productive than posting on TUSCL?
