a momentous week in the life of...

well after being told that all the major muscle groups are working I was a bit pleased, likely only two more operations and I will be as done as i can be…then its just years of rehab…ho hum to that…

then I decide to sell my R1, my kh400 and the GT550…they go this weekend, all sold and off to new homes…

In the mean time i have bought myself a new zil 131, number 4, but this one is road registered, an FV432 as you all have seen and a couple of new tractors and a unimog…

And the real good news is that to manage the nerve pain I have been taking a drug called Gabapentin, its a miracle drug as it completely wiped out my nerve pain, unbelievable, but unbeknown to me was the side effects, lethargy, tiredness, an inability to get an erection although me lady says that she doesnt believe I suffered from that…anyway dues to a miscalculation i ran out of them, and after 8 hours wasnt in that much pain, so i thought I wonder…and after a 24 hour period the pain was manageable, so yesterday I stopped altogether and I am not in great pain and feel a lot better, not tired or knackered all the time…i feel good…

And to top it all off we are singing a new contract on Monday that will virtually double my annual turnover…ooh life is good…

\o/

It’s good to knock the medication on the head. There are side effects to none at all too :smiley:

Nice one 2T! Good to here that lifes on the up again. ;):slight_smile:

Nice work 2T:)

Good to hear that things are looking up fella.

So will you be getting a new 2 wheeled toy?

This is great news, 2Strokes. Very glad your recovery is going well and you are off the drugs.

Congratulations for this also. Will you be providing karaoke services? :laugh:

Very good news… looking forward to seeing you soon we will come down to play on the 272 again :smiley: Qx

I think all of that deserves a visit, but I’m a bit wary now you’re off the gabapentin… :wink:

wendy doesnt believe it worked and wants me to double the dose…no more for me, will try paracetamol from now on when things are tough…

Not sure if I will be buying new again Chunks, got another pair of H2’s and a GT750 kettle coming in a weeks time and think I will stick with the oldies from now on…

I enjoy the high performance bikes but find I really cant stop riding them when i should really be taking the car…so will stick to my fragile oldies which get a bit tired if you ride them too much…

Try Nurofen Plus, available in pharmacies… if you neck 2 to 4 of those it will kill most pain and it won’t make you into a space cake zombie. (Worked a treat on my road rash and toothaches.)

Also… your willie will still work as advertised! :cool:

This is very positive. That unimog sounds cool. For pain you could get stoned all the time, you wouldn’t be very productive though.

Great news 2T well done.

sad moment as the R1 drove away…gotta believe it is a real bugger but best its gone now…cash will be used to buy me another truck…I want a box bodied Zil131 or a 16 ton TM…6x6…
