May have noticed I've been lying a bit low lately. Thanks to the joy of welding on the van and breathing in an hours+ worth of fumes; HEY! I was a 40 a day guy, no worries. Like Marmitee! THE hangover of Beelzebub for foreverish, had the next day off work, less said the better, but involved getting tangled on the stairs with the duvet, nailing me baseball hat to me head with the button on top of me skull and a foot behind me ear. THEN being woken by a sodding toothache, one teggy less now, and Mrs P coming home and saying "HEY! You've turned yellow! 7 weeks down the line and getting fittish. Off the fags now,feeling 10 years younger. Shame I felt 70 odd before. Thankfully no galvanised involved. Look after yourselves better than me gang. Luv n lite.
Ooh ow. Didn't quite follow the diagnosis there but whatever's happened sounds grim. Jaundice? Good you're bouncing, well, tottering, back into the land of the living. Bloody fags.
Was it Welder's Fuminess, or whatever it's called? Usually strikes if you've been inhaling zinc. Nasty.
Blimey , sounds awful - all through welding ?? I tend to hold my breath as i weld - silly i know . Also hold it when the MOT tester is rattling around my welding with his screwdriver ... Up your way shortly if you need a healing ale or two
Wow I suppose it gonna get to you over time, What are you welding with,,? You need some cross flow ventilation A circular fan placed to one side to pull the fumes away will help when welding, Having it blowing at you will probably,move the shielding gas..
Welding with mig. Chose the stillest evening of the year. Thanks for all the good wishes all. Really feeling TLB lurker.
