I'm out of the hospital: ask me (almost) anything

[sakabatou]

[Gormy Cuss]

1. How long were you in the hospital?

[sakabatou]

2. I think a little over 2 weeks...

[mwdem]

3. Why were you in the hospital?

[sakabatou]

4. Officialy... they don't know

I had a seizure.

[ThomCat]

16. I hope it doesn't happen again.

:hug:

Or, at least, I hope it's not serious.

Please be well.

[sakabatou]

24. The meds I've been taking are supposed to stop that

[SeattleGirl]

5. Welcome back.

Feeling any better? :hug:

[sakabatou]

8. Sorta...

I don't really remember it... in fact it has been plauging my memory, especially my short-term.

[sakabatou]

21. Yes

But not at 100%

It's frustrating!

[TimeChaser]

6. What happened?

O.O

[sakabatou]

9. I had a seizure... that's all I know...

[TimeChaser]

12. That sucks

I had an asthma attack at the con this weekend. It seems everyone's having problems :-/

[sakabatou]

14. At least you have your memory...

My short term has to be reconstructed.

[sakabatou]

20. What do you know!

My short term... is coming is comming back slowly... I think :(

[REP]

22. Asthma Attack is WAY BETTER Than An Unexplained Seizure!!

I've been having asthma attacks all week - I'm sensitive to cold air - and I'll be damned if I can find the albuterol inhaler, but I'll take those ANY DAY OF THE WEEK over being in the hospital two weeks with an unexplained seizure!!

Sakabatou, I hope you (and your memory) make a full and speedy recovery and that this was a one-time, never-recurring thing that means absolutely nothing bad about your long-term health.

[sakabatou]

23. Well I am recovering

It'll just take time ^_^

[wildhorses]

7. was this your first seizure?

are you on medication?

[sakabatou]

10. First

[crim son]

11. I'm sorry you've been ill but glad you're out of the hospital.

My question: Why do you love MySpace so much? :P

[sakabatou]

13. I don't

i just have one for the message boards.

[BarenakedLady]

15. I hope you are ok.

:hug:

[sakabatou]

17. It will take some time until I'm back to almost normal

[Patiod]

18. Did your nurse do a competent IV stick?

After a recent operation, the most pain I had was on my GODDAMNED HAND FROM THE FRACKING IV!!!!!! Sore for WEEKS!!!!

Last week when I gave blood, even the phlebotomists were complaining about RN competence in doing IVs.

[sakabatou]

19. Yeah

But me... no... I accidently pulled it out and they had to stick again.

[sakabatou]

25. Hospitals suck... very much

>_<

[sakabatou]

26. F-ing headaches

[JitterbugPerfume]

27. Take care of yourself!

Get plenty of rest and stick to a healthy diet and exercise (((((hug)))))

[sakabatou]

28. I do the bikes at the gym...

I don't know about the diet though :P

[sakabatou]

29. Update

I'm scheduled to go back to the doctors concerning the meds and their side effects. And other issues as well.

[madrchsod]

30. good luck on your meds

it`s a trial and error ordeal but you`ll be fine

[sakabatou]

31. But it's such a giant pain in the ass...

>_<

[Sanity Claws]

32. No question

just hugs for you dear. :hug:

[sakabatou]

33. Thanks

:hug: back

[sakabatou]

34. UPDATE: Avast ye maties

I be gettin' an eyepatch (vision thingie)!

[bridgit]

35. feeling better?

cause i hope so :hi: :hug:

[sakabatou]

36. A bit

But I'm still wacked out. Balance, eyesight, speech...

[sakabatou]

37. So it turns out some of this stuff is due to my meds

but I do get to get an eyepatch!

Yargh!

[REP]

38. Well, The Pirate Look Is Cool...

But stop having problems! Don't make me come up there!

I take Topamax for migraines; I take a pretty small dose since it is just for migraines; it keeps me from going blind in one eye (I usually don't use "just" for migraines, but in this case, I think it is appropriate). What the HELL are they giving you??!!??1!

[sakabatou]

39. It's not the meds

They're not sure. They have me for another MRI later.

[REP]

41. Ask For Wallet-Size Copies

And start feeling better. I'm in PA a lot these days anyway - I'm getting married at the Stanford Barn - but I'm pretty busy so I'd be pissed if I had to take time out smack you, so just get better, okay?

[sakabatou]

42. I am

It'll just take time. But, it's really annoying...

[sakabatou]

44. What am I going to do with the MRI photos?

[Redstone]

40. Stay away from hospitals, would you? They're full of sick people, and you might catch something.

Redstone

[sakabatou]

43. Hospitals suck so very much

[sakabatou]

45. So there's goes another batch of MRIs

and it's getting better.

They're still puzzled about my eyesight.

[sakabatou]

46. Funny story

So it turns out that my left eye is worse than my right... THEN HOW COME I CAN HARDLY SEE SHIT OUT OF MY RIGHT?!

[sakabatou]

47. Oh JOY! More testing later next week

Ugh

[sakabatou]

48. ::headdesk::

What the hell is wrong with this winter?! First I have to go to the hospital where I could have died. Then my memory is bad. My coordination sucks. My eyesight is still sucks.

And the latest? They took away my youtube page.

WTFH?!

[edbermac]

49. How'd they take your temperature, orally or the other end?

}(

[sakabatou]

50. Oral
