Vernon Derby, Dr. Lucien Tomlinson, and Nurse Practitioner Chelsea Coleman. |
Today was one of those days when certain health-related pieces of information hit you; it is devastating. Thanks to surgeon Dr. Lucian Tomlinson and Nurse Practitioner Chelsea Coleman. When I went to the hospital, although many readers encouraged me to be strong, my legs felt weak. I had already come close to bone yard, and I did not like this second visit to do what is regarded as a simple operation. A simple operation can be major for me.
Dr. Tomlinson, who must have done this procedure numerous times, knew I was was tense. It was time to what rural folks call "deaden di area. I felt like bawling out murder when I felt the first juck. Dr Tomlinson started to tell the nurse a story. I know that was to detract me from the onslaught of that needle. I don't think it was all that bad, but mi fraida pain.
Dr Tomlinson said to his assistant, " how do you spell puss?"
His assistant was quick to answer, "Pus"
Dr. Tomlinson then continued, "This has plenty of pus, so how would you describe it?",
His assistant either did not know the answer or she did not want to say it. I let out a peal of laughter, which was short-lived. Here comes the big bad needle again.

Cyst on my shoulder. |
Doc started to work on what he described as a cyst. It was the size of a small lime. He had to get all the pus out, and some nasty things came out of it. It smelled awful! I did not smell it initially because my sinuses were clogged up.
I felt the pressure ease a bit—it felt like a small load was removed from my shoulders. Thanks to Dr. Tomlinson, a Trelawny man, Nurse Coleman, and all the staff at the Andrews Memorial Hospital. Let's remember to treat the members of the medical profession with love and respect. Many of their parents have spent the last cent helping these young medical students acquire their qualifications. Sometimes, the funds are not there, and for years, many have been struggling to pay off the loans to serve you and me.
That is one problem out of the way. The sebaceous gland was clogged up, and it became infected and developed into a cyst. That does not go well with diabetes. There are those of you who have similar problems. This includes a principal of a secondary school in the West. Find a doctor immediately, Sir and have it dealt with. It could become a major issue.
Today, I am sure my heart went up into my mouth, but I am still alive. There is another issue. Call that Part Two. That is far more serious. Pray for me. Thanks to those who called and sent messages. It helped.

ReplyDeleteHey Vernon. Glad you are okay. I had a similar experience with a cyst. But here in the USA, its treated by removing it surgically as those cysts have a sac around them which if not removed, will cause the cyst to grow back. Simple procedure, I didnt feel a thing!
