Hi again gang, right now I feel like my life's a sorry pun...
I am finally back again, hopefully for good this time - spent another full week in hospital after another, more serious breakdown (I was fully conscious but left side paralyzed and aphasic, i.e. couldn't communicate any more in any meaningful way, threw up all over the place, finally became disoriented and extremely irritable) so luckily they looked a little deeper, punctured my spine and inspected the liquor which was full of proteines and dead cells that didn't belong there and decided on meningitis which was later changed to encephalitis; both have a letality rate in excess of 10% so this time I do consider myself seriously fortunate as it seems it could have gone undetected after all, took them over a week to identify and they had already declared me fine and aborted therapy once when the lab found it... no idea when they pulled out their heads and started thinking... Anyway, strangely becoming to a punster with my dirty mind, the virus bears the fabulous name of Cocksackie so no wonder I am feeling a lil bit fucked... there is no drug to fight it so I will have to deal with it myself but luckily I have developed the antibody and they say I am in an excellent state of repair so to say otherwise so if I take it easy, I can make it and have reasonably little to worry about given my immune situation. This is immensely good news to be thankful for. It is not a this will be my 2nd birthday feeling but there is a deep knowledge of this could have gone worse so I guess I will think twice before and about a number of things as well as two times less before & about some others. Speaking of things I have to perhaps be quick about, is book submission still open? Cheers (from the heart) Ecke 2010/2/7 Toine <to...@repiuk.nl>: > That sounds like a serious burnout.
