Still Alive

[Coleman]

Here is a message in a bottle I'm throwing into the sea of messages in bottles.

Carbon Dioxide poisoning with an unknown source.
Sinus Infection.
Constant memory loss. (Sometimes I lose entire hours just randomly, which is insanely Jarring.)
Still have Sleep Apnea.
Still have vitamin K deficiency.
Intense back pain, which I get to have expensive tests for.

Still Alive.

[wcaclimbing]

Its sad to hear all that, but its nice to see you again.

Good luck with everything!
and Happy Holidays

[CrazyAnglican]

Likewise, I'm sorry to hear that. Hope you recover soon.

[Minister Masket]

That's all very depressing, but that's no excuse to copy my thread!
GAH!

sounds like fitter happier by radiohead.


good to hear from you coleman.

Constant memory loss. (Sometimes I lose entire hours just randomly, which is insanely Jarring.)

Yeah, I tell my wife that too for the hours I play conquer club. She is not buying it either.

Laughing is good.

Hope things get better, Coleman.

This needs to be quenched.

As long as any post goes, and seeing as how I'm a hopeless moron, I'll give out more private details of my medical history, in the rare event some lurker cares and because I feel the need to at least get it out all out of my head.

They decided my carbon dioxide count, while high for some, was normal for me.
They did, however, decide my red blood count was much too high and I am currently undergoing fun tests for that. Today I had, not 1, but 2 IVs which I still don't quite understand the point of, but meh.
My Sinus Infection passed.
Still have constant memory loss. I have an EKG next Friday.
Still have sleep apnea.
Still have vitamin K deficiency.
The bone doctors gave up on finding the source of my back pain after a nuclear bone scan and a CT scan. I have, in turn, given up on my current doctors and are seeking others who are willing to pick up where they left off.

Of course still alive, but wary.

Did they tear you to pieces? And throw every piece into a fire?

I believe that is the next logical step.

Coleman... I have a good friend and these symptoms are exactly what she was going through in the early stages of lyme's disease... Maybe throw that out at the doc and see what can be done to check it out. She went months without diagnosis, all becuase the doc never thought to check for it.... Worth a shot anyway..

Goodluck

James

[jonesthecurl]

A good point. Where are you, coleman?

[Coleman]

Still alive.

Memory is really bad, probably the worst it has ever been. Doctors gave up on figuring it out. I can litterally read something and then imediately forget that I read it or that the message even existed. I can be told something 5 times in a row and still have no idea what was said to me. Everyone can beat me at Settlers of Catan. I think that part of it hurts the most.

My back pain was fixed by chiropractors. I can sit for longer than 30 minutes and then get up without screaming now, that's a massive improvement. I still don't recomend chiropractors though, money sucking greedy bastards they are.

Still have sleep apnea. Just recently had to have the setting on my machine increased because I was able to wake up long enough to rip the thing off my face, now it keeps me asleep again.

No longer have vitamin K deficiency. NO explination for it, but yay for being able to sneeze without drowning in blood for the next 20 minutes.

As far as my actual life goes, still a college student, hard to get through college very fast because of the memory, but I'm a good ideas guy whatever that means, so it isn't completely pointless to finish my Information Assurance degree (computer security).

Also I'm engaged to the only person I've found who can put up with me, so I must be doing something right. We just aquired an appartment together, I refuse to let her go through with this unless I'm certain she can stand living with me and not just being around me. So far that seems to be going well.

Again, not sure who cares, writing this mostly for myself. Hope everyone is having a good life. I might try to play again, but it's tough when I forget about the games existing. We'll see how it goes.

[muy_thaiguy]

Good luck Coleman.

[john9blue]

Damn that sucks, usually people get 60 years old before they have to put up with that ****.

Maybe you could get a PDA or something to help you remember stuff...

Anyway, good luck and get well.

LOL, my memory is clearly shot to shit as well as I was about to post the same damn thing I did last time I saw this thread. Hope the engagement works out Coleman.
