Hospital, Thunderstorms, Panama ID, Mini Salamander
Dear Friends and Followers,
Week seven since my move to Panamá has arrived. With it, more rain. But the sun still burns just as hot, and it's getting lighter a little sooner. Lot's has happned in week 6. Here is my update.
Emergency Room in the Hospital
In the previous week, I had a little accident. I will talk about it on Frequency Waves, as it is related to Frequencies. That aside, I burnt my foot.
I hardly ever visit a doctor. Surely not for a cold, headache or a sore throat. But this one hurt. At first, my foot seemed to get better. I did the things Globi does. I paid little attention to the burn. This was careless. Finally, the pain reached a level that was hard to ignore. In addition, the swelling was getting worse. The wound did not heal up, and showed signs of an infection.
@disarrangedJane and @thebugIQ encouraged me to have it looked at. I finally gave in and made the decision yesterday to go to the emergency room, not least because I could hardly walk and needed to go to Immigration the next day. I spare you the picture of the foot. Needless to say, it wasn't pretty.
Off to the emergency room I went.
Drip Drip and Blood Tests
The nurses had a look and called in a doctor. I ended up with three doctors.
Thing is, the Punta Pacifica is the best hospital in Panamá. It is a mere 500 ft away from my house. The Doctores spoke English and security was high in the facility.
I was given an infusion and some very good pain killers. Lala land stuff. After three hours, the third doctor came back, with two sheets of test results - all negative - which was positive. No bacterial infection. That was the biggy!
Got some prescription for an ointment, some supplies of proper dressings and, what else, some more painkillers. Equally effective stuff. All is good. And so I was able to go to Immigration today.

Last night was rough. Emergency room visit. Drowsy pain killers. And I was tired -- too tired to complete my post about JANE'S CHAOS SHOW Extra from Saturday, in which I covered 
However, at 1 AM, my foot was burning up, and I got up, sat at my desk, stuck my foot in a bath of cold water and completed the post. If you haven't seen it yet, it is worth listening and watching. Please spread the word about the injustices carried out by the state against our children and their parents.
My Salamander Friend Visited
In an earlier #lovepanama update, I reported about a cute little Salamander who was hiding as quicky as I spotted him for a second or two.
Well, yesterday night, I got lucky. As I was turning the monitors off and putting myself offline, I saw it again. Behind me, on the wall. There, there it was. Oh My God - how cute are you, little guy!
The Salamander was quick and frightened. I spoke to it softly: Don't be afraid little guy!
Let me take a picture or two of you. I won't harm you. I leave the window open, so you can leave anytime you want. BUT, if you wanna stay, you need to pay your part of the rent. A tiny Steem amount through this post will do.
It ended up high on the wall. I was confident it just paid me a short visit and would find it's way back ourside to catch bugs and climb even higher than my studio on floor 21. I welcome you anytime, little friend whenever you may need a roof over your head to shelter from rain.
I have a little video of the guy, which I will show another time, together with the most powerful thunderstorm I have ever experienced in my life. We'll enjoy that in another post.
Studio Addition
Before I go, I wanted to share with you my newest addition to the CHAOS Audio Production Studio. It's a Supercardioid mic.
This is Andrea, a AKG P5S. It's purpose is to supplement the audio function of my other friend: the Roland synthesizer Juno DS.
Yep, I does all kind of fancy Vocoder things, and I am planning to do a MSP Waves jingle with it. Stay tuned!
That's it for today.
Did you like my update from Panamá? Please leave a comment! I'd love to hear from you!
Till my next Panamá update...
