Health Report and a Visit With Larry

Wednesday October 22, 2025 Guerneville CA.

Health report

Well, I’m still kicking. About a month ago the docs gave me some meds to retard the eczema and slow down the severe itching and pain.

However when I went to pick up the med, I asked if there was any corn stuff in it. Yes, there was but they said they  had the med in solution form without any corn.

Wrong, wrong, wrong

They were wrong about that, which I found out after using the drug for a couple weeks when my itching got a lot worse, but at least the drug reduced the severe pain a lot.

I’m to get another drug in a couple days which is an injection that is supposed to knock out the eczema which is supposed to work real good. We’ll see.

Doctoring is  a slow process these days, two weeks to get an appointment and then another two weeks to wait for the labs and test to come in.

Larry visits

My cousin Larry who used to live next door to us here came by for a visit for about a week, so we’ve been doing some stuff and went for a ride today in Hondo.

Older pictures

I found some older pictures in the camera of the last bike ride I did with Barry

We rode over to the neighbor’s to visit with Jim and his dog. I saw the dog up there so I knew Jim was close by.jims

We headed for home after that.

Game Cam Pictures and My Health

Wednesday September 17, 2025 Guerneville CA.

My health

It’s not too good right now. I’m suffering with a good case of eczema, skin problems that is making my whole body itch quit a lot and most of the time. I’ve been waiting to receive some meds to maybe help this but they have been delayed, so I suffer. I do finally have an appointment with a specialist at the VA this coming week, about time.

Getting out

I’ve been mostly hanging around the house  as this eczema is very  painful, so today I decided to ride up into the forest to collect my game cam cards.

Posting

I don’t plan to do much posting until I improve some. I can see my body improving very slightly each day. So, maybe in a couple of weeks I’ll be back to posting.

Nice day out in the forest.
