Possibly post-”ick”tal?

November 24, 2009 in Cranky, Facts About Patient Anonymous, Health, Hospitalizations, Medicine, Meds, Neat Neuro Stuff, Seizures

I shouldn’t even be on baby MacBook right now, but I need to gripe.  What the HELL is wrong with me? I am completely, cognitively impaired, totally nauseous and dizzy, I have somewhat of a headache, and a bit of photophobia.  Anxious…  Maybe take a Valium? Tinnitus but that’s been a lifelong condition anyway.  Still, [...]

My (Very Early Morning) EEG

November 20, 2009 in ADD, Asperger's, Bipolar Disorder, Facts About Patient Anonymous, Head Injury, Hospitalizations, Humour, Life is Stranger Than Fiction, Medicine, Meds, Neat Neuro Stuff, PTSD, Seizures

Ugh.  I’m still waiting for the Tea Faeries to alight upon my shoulders, with blessings of sweet caffeine relief, but to no avail…  Yes, I was up very early this morning (after staying up a little late?) for another EEG!
Let’s just say the whole thing started off with a bang.  Literally.  The hospital’s revolving door’s [...]

Networks of Contagion: From the Social to the Psyche and Back

November 17, 2009 in Asperger's, Facts About Patient Anonymous, Humour, Literary, Medicine, Meds, Neat Neuro Stuff, Profanity, You Decide

I’m going to try and keep this as succinct as possible, so you won’t start (yawning and), fall asleep!
I’ve been noticing for a while on Twitter, that when people express themselves, they tend to change their writing styles to that of whom they meet and Follow.  Certain acronyms, emoticons, abbreviations…all of these things get used [...]

Peaceful, post-”ick”tal MP3

October 25, 2009 in Blogging, Facts About Patient Anonymous, Head Injury, Health, MP3 of the Moment, Medicine, Neat Neuro Stuff, Religion, Seizures, You Decide

These women are so amazing.  I heard of them recently and was not sure how they would compare with my blessed Tallis Scholars (an a capella en semble that sings Scared Music.)  The Tallis Scholars are from Oxford, England.  These ladies are based in New York City.  Let me tell you, they are quite like [...]

BAD, BAD Seizure!

Alright, let’s move back a bit to the beginning of my day, prior to when I exploded last night.  Something was desperately wrong with me.  I felt like I was permanently living in a state of Orthostatic Hypotension.  I was so dizzy, felt so faint, and like you could knock me over by simply blowing [...]

Not.So.Good.So.Far.

October 21, 2009 in ADD, Asperger's, Bipolar Disorder, Cranky, Facts About Patient Anonymous, Head Injury, Health, Hospitalizations, Medicine, Meds, Neat Neuro Stuff, PTSD, Seizures, Therapy

I feel like a filthy, disgusting rat that has been traipsing endlessly, throughout the sewers of the city all night.  And speaking of filthy, disgusting and night, I awoke from the worst nightmare of my entire life! Absolutely! Without question! Bar none! I will not disclose any of the content, lest I throw the majority [...]

Simple Partial Seizure Notation

October 19, 2009 in Facts About Patient Anonymous, Head Injury, Health, Medicine, Meds, Neat Neuro Stuff, Seizures

I’m kinda baked so I’m putting this here.  Well, I think they’re all here anyway but I’ll add it to my big document later.
Epigastric rising, unsure of rapid eye blinking but did not seem to occur. *shakes head* Epigastric rising lasted several (app. five?) minutes.  During said time period, minor motor spasms in right leg [...]

Stop the Presses! I’m Eating! And Toe Tapping to A New MP3 Too!

No, I’m serious.  This is actually worthy of “Breaking News!”
My body is weird.  At least from the inside.  I think it’s alright from the outside? *shrug* Still, I don’t eat.  This can be traced back to a variety of reasons.  However, in the immediate, it has tended to work “backwards” in a certain way regarding [...]

There Is Still Time For Epilepsy!

October 12, 2009 in Facts About Patient Anonymous, Head Injury, Health, Medicine, Neat Neuro Stuff, PTSD, Seizures, Therapy, You Decide

Just a brief Simple Partial. We’re getting everything now folks! Rapid eye blinking and some drooling.  Very minor for my Simple Partials.  So…anything left before midnight?

MRI Scan Scheduled at WHAT Time???

October 8, 2009 in Facts About Patient Anonymous, Head Injury, Health, Medicine, Migraines, Neat Neuro Stuff, Seizures, Technology Sucks

While I still have the photophobia under control from this Worst Migraine Ever, I might as well amuse myself bore everyone with a Post.  I really have been wanting to write about more than the mundane, I really have.  It’s just that my brain keeps setting up these, sort of, “road blocks.”  Big Ones.  They [...]
