Holy crap Guido!

You must have been terrified! 

Were you feeling ill or tired leading up to the seizure? Thank God that their was an emergency room so close by. This is a no-brainer but I'm going to say it anyway, please, please rest and take it easy until your check up. That means no working out and no running! (I know this is hard to stop doing something that you love but it may just be wise until you find out exactly what caused the seizure.)

Also fantastic news that it's not a tumor.

You'll be in my prayers.

		That makes two of us hoping I'll be ok! LOL!!! Absolutely NO history of it in my family. Got me on anti-seizure drugs now. They did run a whole battery of tests from EEGs to CatScans etc. No brain tumor. That is a good thing. Their best guess now is that it was a provoked seizure due to lack of sleep. The gym is 24hours and has cameras all over the place. I saw my vid yesterday. Man, did I hit HARD! Kinda blurry and hard to see but about a mile into a run you see me go down with EMS running in almost immediately afterwards as they are housed right across the street. I barely remember the event and certainly don't remember a thing about the second that happened in the hospital. Really odd. Just a fuzzy "coming to" where it dawns on me that I am in the Intensive Care Unit. I have a follow-up in a couple of weeks. Right now, every muscle in my body hurts. They gave me some stat where normal muscle protein hovers around 100 and mine hit 1300+. Yikes. No wonder I hurt all over.      ~ MG_Metalgoddess~ wrote: OMG,, thats horrible...  I hope you will be okay?????  I dont mean to pry, and you can tell me its non of my buisness?

Thanks Ron.. I"m feeling sorta human enough now.. mildish cramping throughout the day though. I still managed to get some work done.. Feck got a drumming lesson in an hour and for once I'm not looking forward to it. I'll just have some tea ( I know, not very metal lol) and then head out for the lesson.. or maybe I do really just need to nuke my stomach with a strong as hell coffee!!

Phew! I'm recovering from the most intense stomach cramps this morning. I woke up late (very, very unusual for me) managed to get the kids to school and got home.. Started cramping up and lay on the bed in feotal position. Kinda felt like a combo of giving birth or death.. I was sort of praying for death after a while lol. Craig sauntered into the bedroom after a relaxing shower and says 'you don't look too good' I felt so shite I couldn't even respond.  I honestly haven't felt that much pain in years.. it really felt like labour pains! Craig was concerned only after he'd noticed that I was pale, covered in sweat and hadn't moved for an hour.. Men.. if I had died I think he'd only have noticed when decomposition set in or if the kids weren't home from school yet lol. Anyways, mysteriously cramps have eased off, still feeling a tad shakey and like I've survived some sort of inner struggle with my body but thankfully I'm able to sort of attempt some of the tasks I've got scheduled for today. Very, very mysterious this whole thing.
