A host of medical difficulties have made me lackadaisical about business.
Latest was two weeks in MICU, which gave me a psychosis from lack of sleep. But at least they did an MRI, looking for a stroke. Results were "Wear a helmet, ride the short bus to school". Water on the brain caused by Cervical Myelopathy. Water pressure interferes with vision, making me a crummy welder. I know that damn disc has been pinching my spinal cord for decades, now I have an image of it.
Still in the final diagnosis stage, but I am hoping for neck surgery to make me the 18 year old I never was- I think the prob started at age 10 when I fell out of a tree and landed on my head. But it didn't hurt me none.. hurt me none... none. 55 years of muscle problems night have been spinal cord problems.
Putting a name to it gives me confidence that it might get fixed. There is a little bit of spring in my limp these days. ;)
