Irony

I read something yesterday that just about made me fall off…well, I was on the floor so it’s pretty hard to fall off the floor.  However, had I been sitting on anything higher, I might just have fallen off that.
It reminded me of something that happened a few years ago, and related to that, I [...]

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 [...]

What’s Left Then?

Well, the ADD is all pervasive.  It never leaves.  I could wake up with another Migraine From Hell tomorrow but we’ll have to wait for that?
So, within one bloody, fucking day, we’ve (I’ve?) managed to go through all of all my diagnoses.
This is some kind of record.  No.  It is a record.  This makes no [...]

You Are Not Sick…You Are Well…You Are Not Sick…You Are Well…
As Far As Meds Tonight:
Another Maxalt/Rizatriptan (On The Heels Of Just Getting Over “The Migraine From Hell?” Another One? Neurologically Not Good?) Gravol/Dimenhydrinate, Valium/Diazepam.  The Regular Stuff: Topamax/Topiramate, Lamictal/Lamotrigine, Clobazam/Frisium, Seroquel/Quetiapine.
Ibuprophen That Didn’t Even Make A Dent Before Taking The Migraine Triptan.  My World, It [...]

The Second Time, The Worst One

October 7, 2009 in Cranky, Facts About Patient Anonymous, Health, Medicine, Meds, Migraines, Political, Spock, The Tummy Blues, Therapy, You Decide

This migraine is my worst ever.  I have only had two “Puking Migraines” in my life.  I’m sure you have guessed this is one of them.  The other happened when I woke up on my 29th birthday.  “Happy Birthday!” *horns tooting* That didn’t matter so much; it happening on my birthday.  I’m not really big [...]

Time For a New MP3

September 22, 2009 in Blogging, Facts About Patient Anonymous, GLBT, Health, MP3 of the Moment, PTSD, Spock, Therapy, You Decide

This is just one of those songs where I could say so much.  Too much, in fact.  So, I won’t say anything at all.

Just When it Couldn’t Get More Interesting

I am still bedridden, yet diligently researching what else could be wrong with my brain.  In all matters of repetitiveness, this is due to my first tonic-clonic seizure that occurred on September 02, 2009.  You see, I need to be repetitive as I do not know who may stumble upon this post, or all of [...]

Concrete Resonance and Wake Up Calls

September 18, 2009 in ADD, Asperger's, Bipolar Disorder, Facts About Patient Anonymous, Head Injury, Health, Medicine, PTSD, Patient Advocacy, Seizures, Spock, Therapy, You Decide

I’d like to joke that banging my head on the concrete pavement when I had my first tonic-clonic seizure (which I did do), has “knocked some sense into me.”  However, I think that maybe it did.  Well, not literally but please, read on.
The seizure happened on September 02, 2009.  Considering the date of this post, [...]

The Importance of Seizure Observer Accounts

September 17, 2009 in Facts About Patient Anonymous, Head Injury, Health, Humour, Life is Stranger Than Fiction, Medicine, Neat Neuro Stuff, Patient Advocacy, Seizures, Spock, Therapy

I can not stress this enough: It is of the utmost importance to obtain an observer account, with as much information as possible, if you have a seizure (provided an observer is there.)  Most people with Epilepsy already know this.  However, if you are an observer, here are some things that you should definitely know.

Tick Tock, Tick Tock, Non-Arsey Neuro Rocks…

September 14, 2009 in Facts About Patient Anonymous, Head Injury, Health, Medicine, Neat Neuro Stuff, PTSD, Patient Advocacy, Seizures, Spock

I woke up straight away and called Non-Arsey Neuro’s office this morning.  I just about had a major meltdown as I thought I lost his number.  And why it wasn’t listed anywhere online is beyond me.
Anyway, his Receptionist rocks too.  I could barely string together two non-coherent sentences when she just confirmed my phone number [...]
