This has been the "off-season" from hell - supposed to be my break from building the house over the last 3 years(Spring, Summer, Fall) with Winter off.
Surprise ankle surgery, t-cell lymphoma treatments, crazily f#cked up hormones, and now to be included - prostatitis. I'm still on crutches so the most I have been able to cycle is 20 to 30 minutes easy on the trainer 2 to 3 days a week - so I don't think that was the cause.
Any recommendations?
If I believed in god, I would believe god truly didn't like me ; ) |

Dang man that's a series of tough breaks. No advice, just counting myself lucky with health of an armoured tank. Heal well and hopefully you get it all sorted soon. |

Are you still seeing your hematologist? I have non-medical experience in hem/onc, and sometimes it seems there are seemingly unrelated ailments that can be a result of the disease or treatment, that the non-hem/onc doc might not catch. Sorry to hear about all of that. N |

Bummer! Hope you recover fast. By the way, I'd love to see pics of the finished house if/when they're available. |

Nick - I am quite sure many of the issues I am dealing with are related to the treatments for the t-cell lymphoma, and luckily am off them now for a new treatment which will hopefully be more effective and not have the same effect on my hormones - which in turn effect many of my other issues. Doctors like to poo-poo it all ; ) |

VT - I still have about 8 weeks of finish work and then on to landscaping, but you can see whatI have accomplished up to this point on a blog I was keeping so my wife could see what I was doing as she stayed in SF working while I was up in Washington with the house... http://balkyhill.blogspot.com |

BEAUTIFUL house. I've gone as far as renovating a kitchen and bath (nothing fancy), replacing windows, etc. I have a lot of reverence for what you've done there. N |

Thanks, Nick. The house has nearly killed me - literally and figuratively ; ) I look forward to actually living in it. |
