Well, after this weekend I will have just a few. I am passing them on early to my son. I just had a health scare that indicates I won't be here much longer. I almost died yesterday and it doesn't look good. But it's been going this way for years.

The medication that they were treating me with almost killed me. They also suspect that I have had a series of TIA's. CT shows some evidence. They let me come home and I have tests scheduled for Monday at the VA. Some of the other problems I am having are just too embarrassing to talk about.

I am only keeping the 4 Ruger P Series pistols that I recently bought from a fellow forum member. They are the only guns that brought me any joy in the longest time. I am not buying anymore other than the parts kit I already agreed to buy from the guy who sold me the pistols. My son will possibly need them at some point.

They didn't want me to go home, but I told them if I'm gonna die this weekend, I would rather it be at home in my own bed with my dog. The bubblegumed up part is that I had to figure out what was happening for my damn VA doctor. Yes I'm a medical person, but not an MD. I had just saw the doc at the VA the day before. I told him all the symptoms I was having, and he never made the connection.

I asked him for hydrocodone for the pain, and he dismissed me as drug seeking and said the VA wouldn't let him. I guess that my slurred speech made him think I was on drugs already. Even though my UA from 3 days earlier was clean. So Monday is more blood tests, another EKG (my QT is quite long) X rays and god knows what else.

So yeah, I am hoping to make it out to the range at least one more time, but it's doubtful.
Sorry to hear this but it falls in line with what I have heard about the VA.
