You and me both Vic. I developed bursitis in my left heel last Sunday. Managed to make it through the week using ice and crutches, but this weekend I am completely off my feet.

GO BLUE!

Eating at the blue tractor now, nice to be around a few Michigan fans for a change!

Getting old is a bitch!

Sorry you two guys are both laid up...here's to a speedy recovery...

Add me to the list of those with health problems. For the last three months I've been dealing with some kind of neurological issue apparently caused by an immune system gone a little haywire, and the symptoms are just vague enough that my doctor doesn't know if I should be treated for it or not right now. On weekends I'm pretty much confined to the couch.

I'm sorry. I wish you the best.

I've always liked your Emerson sig.

Thanks, to both parts of your statement.

For the most part, I'm fine. I just can't move at my normal pace or else my leg starts tingling, and if the tingling gets bad enough, my entire lower torso then feels like it's in a vise grip for several seconds. It sucks because it's quite uncomfortable, but it could be a hell of a lot worse.

that's really bizarre. sounds like the kinda thing you might want to see a couple different doctors for.

 

[Michchamp]

well, there goes my score prediction...

I have (my neurologist is the one who isn't sure if I should be treated).

Between my primary care physician and my neurologist, I have undergone 3 sets of blood tests, 3 MRIs, and a lumbar puncture, and I will be going back for a fourth MRI and an EMG just to rule out all other possibilities. Needless to say it's been an eventful 3 months.

i mean go see a couple different specialists (eg different neurologists at different hospitals).

you might luck out and find a doctor who has encountered that condition before.

I'm going to the Cleveland Clinic at some point, after my other tests are done.

Grandpa MichChamp was just there (for a preliminary exam prior to heart surgery). I heard the facilities are amazing.

 

[Michchamp]

we're all getting old...

Jeez, sounds terrible. A lumbar puncture? Yikes! I got nothin to complain about.

You are correct, it is a renowned institution. My mother was saying that rich Middle Easterners often get treated there.

 

[TheVictors]

Yeah, I'm just pretty bored ...can't really drink and waiting for the meds to really start helping. Could definitely be worse ...best luck tsume

It didn't help that the area of my spine they needed to get to is narrower than in most people, so the procedure took longer. They give you injections to numb the area, but that doesn't mean crap once the needle goes deeper. It wasn't the most painful thing I've ever experienced, but I don't ever want to get another one. I also got a nasty headache complete with sore neck, nausea, and tinnitus over 3 days following the lumbar puncture (it's not unusual to get all of those symptoms after getting one).
