    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Not the ER results I wanted

I'm imagining it feels like this...... :dgrin:

Get well soon!

well im home now, with instructions to rest and drin a lot and no caffeine.

thogh i ha ve to clean my rats, and doing so with latex gloves now.
 
im resting now, but no one knows my operation for the rats.


Still getting migraine pain once the Keteorol wears off. Vision is worse today, so im glad i dont need to see the keyboard to type.
 
Thanks, The vision has gotten worse, and onlything keeping pain down is excedrine. So im taking that rather my Rx .

I showed my step dad how to clean my rats today, so he did that for me so i didnt have to deal with it.
 
That's good! Do they have you on preventative antibiotics at least? With such a severe viral infection I wouldn't be taking any chances of a secondary infection if I were you. Has the doc given you any idea how long recovery will be? The vision problems are especially worrisome.
 
Caffeine raises your blood pressure. Also, if you drink diet soda, aspartame is known to mimic the symptoms of multiple sclerosis. Caffeinated and diet beverages should only be consumed by 100% healthy individuals whose bodies can adjust to the changes in blood pressure.
 
When I use to suffer true migraines, caffeine (Excedrin) was my lifesaver. It was 20+ years ago, and the available prescription medicine really didn't touch the pain and had violent side effects. I'm glad you found something to provide some relief, and high-five to your step-dad for helping with your rats!

No antibiotic can begiven for this at all . Just have to stay rested, hydrated and take pain meds when needed to stay comfortable. And then let the virus works its course.


as for the caffeine, too much can cause problems with headaches by increasing the blood pressure. Im taking pills that have caffeine, and drinking one caffinated drink a day as it helps my head.
 
This is probably not possible, but don't stress TOO much. Get yourself as healthy as possible with diet and go into the neuro with an open mind. Mind your salt and caffeine but still live your life.

And get off the BOI.....that's just asking for high blood pressure.
 
My blood pressure is good at 120/60.

I dont have an aneurysm but Meningitis. Which is the cause of everything.

The nero went over CT scans many times and its just cluster of vessels. Ive got my migraines under control just waiting for vision to come back fully. Does feel like i have a slight improvement in the left eye.
 
Tomorrow will be week three.
Eyes still bad but with slight improvement. Head ive got under control but still there and neck hurts.

Cant wait for it to all go away. This being in bed all the time and stuck here sucks
 
I had a severe case of mono back in 1978. I went from 244 pounds down to 175. Was sick for 4 months and took me almost a year to get back in shape. I cannot look at orange or Lime gatoraide (only flavors back then) without wanting to puke. I know what it's like to just lay there. Get better soon!
 
I have been getting better, Wearing my glasses now has focused eyes more, Still bad vision at night time.

Im so sick of drinking gatorades, OJ, AJ and other stuff, i have to alternate non stop. Im so sick of it all.

My neck isnt hurting anymore when i wake up in morning, headaches are now about a lever 3-5. and Im able to not need my pain meds every 6 hours but rather push it to every 7-9 hours now.
