One of the things Sacks describes in his book that one nasty thing about migraine is there's no medication, and that if you cure one symptom, the
patient might/will get another. He describes that he's seen two male patients getting migraine from ejaculation. That's one for the category "it
could've been worse".
Very interested in what your neurologist could tell you.

Among the alleviating actions he does list vomiting, and a power nap. Some of his patients never get a headache if they go to sleep by the time they
see the swirls.

At least I have a significant chance of being cured of my difficulties. Recently had a relative die of cancer - it was not pretty at the end.

Saw the neurologist yesterday. He's convinced that my Migraines are just that and definitely not some type of epilepsy. The type of my Migraine is
Migraine with Aura, one of the less common types.

That's good. I had a blackout at the funfair last year (and looking at video footage of the ride is something I really shouldn't do) and I hope it
never ever happens again.

couldn't be real world friends with someone like that without arguing all the time. |
KUIII's a nice guy but brought up like a "good ol boy". He's also a concert going friend of mine, we've shared rooms, gas and all that. His political
views are like Poly sez... redneck, but not like Pedro's! I'm tryin' to change KUIII's perspective and he's receptive to new ideas. Not your ordinary
redneck. He's a seeker, that was raised and educated in a place not fit for seekers of the truth. It makes him very frustrated that he can agree with
us but we can't disagree with him. He doesn't even see it, ya know?
I'm so sorry for all the deaths in your family Poly, but at our age, it's to be expected. It doesn't make it any easier. I lost my last really close
friend last year and there's a big hole in my heart, fer sure. Hate it! I miss her!
I got me. Thats it. You still have young family around.
I haven't had any relations alive for years now. Sorta nice that way, they don't die. They already have.
What I wouldn't give for a non judgemental friend right now close by or at my side.
Sorry, I forgot to ask about you Agua, how are you and things doing now?
And a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to BONNY! The real pride and joy @ zappa.com! May your goose never be cooked! :wink:

That was a fun Easter. Sadly ruined by my sister's absent-mindedness. She lost her traffic card and we couldn't find it in time, so now we're
searching all over the house for it.

Hmmm... apparently research indicates that plucking out hairs may stimulate hair growth.

Thanks for your thoughts Kirk.
I'm still struggling a bit healing from my surgery. I've missed a lot of tutorials and the associated benefit, but luckily now we're on mid semester
break. Two weeks to catch up on lecture recordings and exercises and hopefully by the end of that I'll be ready to return to the fray.

Sorry to hear that Poly, hope you'll recover soon!
A man was shot dead in Eindhoven last night, possibly a liquidation. His name and age check out - it seems like I went to school with him. He was a
year younger than me but we've been in a combined group a few years.
