My last 12 pills of pylera! These antibiotics are damn strong. I hope it is effective, the answer in 2 months!
I am loving the white vinegar: very effective, environment friendly and quite cheap! My whole place is spick-and-span. I wonder why people buy other chemicals besides white vinegar and bleach. They are the only products I use.

One of the resident is an annoying fat dude with his wife and his horrible daughter. They are finally gone after 3 years. He is squatting 3 empty parking lots and it generates a lot of tensions. I am glad this fat dude and his family moved out.
2 more days and I am done with the treatment. The antibiotics killed all bacteria in my stomach, therefore making my digestive system a bit weak and I lost appetite. It started to be a burden and I cannot wait to get it over with: 27 more pills to swallow!

After 3 years of of experience with the management company of my building, replaced 2 times by me, I am moving forward and I decided to take control of it. I told the management company to modify the budget, to ignore the general assembly and to take direct orders from me. In exchange, I will extend their contract. So far they obey reluctantly but they see how effective I am.
The management company asked me one funny question: “So what are we supposed to do then if you take care of everything and that there is no general assemblies?”
My direct answer: “Enjoy your salary and sign the contracts I’ll send to you!”
I even added after the astonishing look on his face: “Please do not forget to increase your salary by 2.5%”.

My parents and my brother have developed some kind of fear of interactions with others. When they have a problem, they keep talking about it instead of doing something to fix it: calling someone appears to be the worse solution for them.
I find it so much easier to tell people one sentence: “I have a problem, please fix it now”. People can feel in my tone and my body language my determination and they will fix my problem.
If I have questions, I just look on Google to find answers.

I really hate it when I have to deal with BIOS systems: very basic but really tricky. I thought that Windows 10 could not be installed from a USB stick on my old Asus laptop. It worked but 2 conditions are required:
- FAT32 format for the USB stick
- Plug the USB stick AND make the BIOS boot changes then!
If you do not do the changes normally as indicated above, the laptop won’t boot or install Windows 10! It took me ages to figure that out!

Life is really unfair. My brother and my parents have access to optical fiber for internet and they also have access to 4G LTE Advanced. They have the 2 fastest speed available at the same time. I would love to have at least one. 4G isn’t too bad where I am however I am being picky.
Not many people know that they have access to 4G+ most people who realize that are almost alone when they use it!

I’ve started the 10-days treatment against helicobacter pylori:
- 12 pills of pylera, combination of 2 antibiotics, per day (3 pills after each meal and 3 before bed)
- 2 pills of an IPP, omeprazole
After 2 days, I am feeling good, very good! I wonder whether the antibiotics killed other things besides this bacteria. Besides minor diarrhoea and headaches, nothing really annoying as side effects.

According to the letter from the specialist, the loss of blood had nothing to do with alcohol, it was just an accident that both happened at the same time. I made a mistake and I thought AINS meant alcohol.
AINS means: Anti-inflammatoire non stéroïdien (example: Ibuprofène)
Indeed, the specialist checked everything and he only found the bacteria in my stomach as the main cause and the use of AINS as the triggering event. I am feeling much better now! I can drink :)!

Here is the specialist’s letter to my “general doctor” in french:
Madame et chère Consoeur
Vous trouverez ci-joint les comptes rendus des examens endoscopiques de votre patient Monsieur XXX, né le XX, suite à la découverte d’une anémie microcytaire assez sévère à 8,7 g d’hémoglobine et notion d’un mélæna très probablement en rapport avec la prise d’AINS.
La fibroscopie retrouve une minime œsophagite peptique et une bulbite érosive de la pointe du bulbe.
Macroscopiquement le duodénum est normal, et à l’histologie la muqueuse est également normale.
En revanche, l’histologie gastrique met en évidence une gastrite à « helicobacter pylori » active dont il faudra envisager le traitement d’éradication usuelle*.
Sa coloscopie est normale.
On peut envisager l’hypothèse d’un saignement bulbaire dans ce contexte majoré par la prise d’ AINS.
Il me parait nécessaire de surveiller ce patient après un traitement martial, qui permettra d’obtenir des taux d’hémoglobine et de ferritinémie normaux.
Une ré-évaluation à distance du taux d’hémoglobine et du bilan martial me parait également indispensable avant de clore le chapitre et considère cet incident d’anémie comme ayant eu une étiologie ponctuelle.
Je vous remercie de votre confiance.
Bien confraternellement.
