<div>Sometimes it just hits you like a ton of bricks. I have not been feeling well the past couple of days and then last night I couldn’t keep my balance and fell. Went to ER and while this is how I look right now, turns out I got some kidney issues to deal with as well. Getting tests done to see how serious it is.

<div>Thank you to everyone that has reached out to me publicly and privately. This means more than what you know and I am eternally grateful and thankful to all of you.

<div>I am staying overnight and have more tests done tomorrow and depending on results, I might be able to go home late tomorrow or sometime Friday. To make it simple for now, looks like the main problem is not the kidneys but the bladder and the prostate. need to do more tests to see how that comes out and we go from there. I promise to get back in touch with everyone individually. At least I wanted to give you an update in the meantime, thank you very much for being who you are and know that this is something I will never forget.

<div>I was given a Flomax pill and then sent home Thursday. I went to lay down to rest a bit before going to CVS to pick up my scripts. I went to get up and hit with a dizzy spell that knocked me back down. I tried again in a few minutes and the same thing happened. I had to call EMT and this time they had to break into my apartment, no damage, and bring me back to the hospital. I’ve been at the hospital ever since. One side effect of Flomax is dizziness, and that definitely happened with me. There is talk about sending me to rehab until we are 100% sure that the dizziness is gone because I live on the third floor and have three sets of steps I have to use to get to my place. Obviously I can’t go to work until that’s gone as well so that really sucks. As you can imagine I am not happy about the whole situation I’m in right now, but I can only control so much of it. I just have to deal with this one day at a time, one situation at a time, and hopefully it will work out in the end. Thank you everyone for what you have done and one of these days I will get to everyone individually just has not been easy for me right now to do it all with so much unknown and frustration and stress happening at the same time I will update again soon and thank you for putting up with me.
