Dodgy Kidneys
A week or so ago during my 90 minute Wednesday run I stopped for a pee. Nothing unusual here, most of us have done it from time to time. The only difference this time was the colour.......BLOOD RED. Faaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrkkkkk.
When I got home (had to finish the run 1st of course) I phoned the Doctor. He said to see how it goes over night then if it continues go to the Hospital.
Next morning was all clear. Lovely. That is until after my session that afternoon when it all went funny once again.
Off to the Hospital for tests and more tests and as yet I still dont know whats going on. I have been pricked and poked, scanned and xrayed yet still dont know what the issue is. All I know is that I have a Macroscopic Haematuria, which basically translates to blood in the urine. The Antibiotics have cleared up the colour but the test keep saying that there are still traces of blood present.
I have another load of tests tomorrow and a kidney scan on Wednesday. I havent been allowed to run for over a week and its killing me. I would almost sacrifice a Kidney right now just to go for a run!!!
Needless to say Burnie Ten is off the agenda. Bugga, was kind of looking forward to that one!!
Stay tuned for an update later in the week, and hopefully a run report!

Mate.......I hope all turns out good!
Shit news about Burnie!
How shit!
Look after yourself old chap, you'll be back flying in no time. I guess it's time to start carrying the can for the team eh? Shame about your footy team, the missus was sooky all that weekend!
Thanks for the kind words big fella...I wasn't ready for 10K, but a mate gave me the entry form and I fear I may have won him the 40-44 age group.
Sorry to go all gangsta here, but the Lunaracers were dope! Very comfy indeed.
