Things I have a renewed interest in

That’s pretty witty

On my street there are fingalians, Dubs, Americans, Australians, polish but no muldoons

No hurling strongholds there, but no soccer football strongholds either.

I’d say everyone is just mindlessly watching Twitter to see if the Yanks have elected a President yet.

I have my moments but what would you expect from someone who has Jaime Lee Curtis’s left tit from trading places as his avatar?

I’d say 100% of the Limerick players wouldn’t be recognised in Dublin

I’d say you’re wrong there. All the daycent people living inside the pale are all either good culchie stock or first/second generation of same. Sure the native methadone head dub lot wouldn’t recognise their own mothers. The crayturs.

Evolution is amazing. Purebred methadonians are born with a curved hand for looking for spare change these days.

Walking.
I heard good things about an ankle specialist from a brother of an acquaintance. So I went to the GP and asked for a referral. A three month wait ensued but ultimately I had my appointment. I think I wanted an ankle replacement but he talked me out of it, telling me I was too young (!). Eventually I will have to get them both replaced but in the meantime he prescribed a change in footwear and steroid injections in to the ankle joints.
The improvement to my pain profile has been seismic. I’m walking 5-6 miles a day now with little or no pain or stiffness. I’ve lost an amount of weight as well. The injections will last for approximately 6 months and then I’ll repeat them. Eventually they won’t work any more and then I’ll get the replacements.
My GP tells me the specialist is known in the trade as Johnny the Foot. I’ve never met a medic as passionate about what he does.
It does however beg the question as to why the last specialist I saw 7 years ago never thought to do any of this for me. But sin sceal eile

Unfortunately you win some and you lose some.

Yep.

Had the same fella. Great guy.

I was referred first to another surgeon in santry. I asked should I get an MRI before coming and was told no. Came in and he said I’ll need an MRI. That’ll be 200 notes. Back in with the MRI. I can’t see anything in that, I’ll refer you on to the other fella. That’ll be 150 notes. Fuckin robbery!
