I've heard that from other people too - either we are getting older, or diseases are getting stronger.

I suppose a mix of both, but the second option is sadly a real menace.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

You forgot the third option - we are getting weaker.

Wow, eight days... 
I've had four and it was driving me mad.
The worst part was wanting to get some pain killers, but they were downstairs and I had to get out of bed to get them.
Don't be sick and alone.
Always have someone to bring you your meds 
At least I had the cat to keep me company.

Hope you're feeling better. Did you sleep the entire time?

Not the entire time, but I slept quite a lot.
It was either sleeping or feeling miserable, so that's not a difficult choice 
The problem is actually sleeping... I used melatonin pills to get sleepy.

You need a brighter cat: ours is well aware of where his cat food comes from, and that you need opposable thumbs to get at it ...

And thus, taking an inscrutable point of view, doing some rather long-term lasting pain management.

I have been that sick about 3 times in my life. Weird how that works.
Glad you are on the mend.

Intersting (not the stuff) how trying to read it reminded me how reading Dutch really teases at an English reader. Especially knowing some German. Just so close to, but not quite, readable.*
* Do Netherlanders feel the same about reading Dutch?

We sometimes get sick of the Dutch language too, I really dislike using the "Dutch" version of Windows, yuk 
Although a lot of words are the same in German, some words can mean something totally different.
For instance "bellen" means using the phone in Dutch, but in German it means "barking".
Imagine the confusion when Dutch people are asking if they can use the phone in Germany: "kann Ich hier bellen?"

For my sh*tty week, I tore my distal biceps tendon last Saturday. Just had repair surgery yesterday, now comes the post-surgery pain, PT, etc.

Ouch, speedy recovery to you too!
I'm guessing yours is going to take a bit longer than mine.

Warm a cup of milk, add a teaspoon of ground black pepper. Drink within 2 minutes, and go to bed.
Works every time.
