Gurm's Absence and Illness

[mutz]

...I get it, I get it. I've just booked a two-week vacation in a psychiatric clinic, totally cut off from the world.

Hehe. Don't fear Mutz, MURCitis can go into remission for weeks, months, or even YEARS at a time. Hope is not lost. While there is no cure, several therapies exist to make your life more tolerable. I won't go into them here, though.

Semi-Daily Update:

Well, day by day I am feeling ever so slightly better. In fact, immediately after I started sleeping full nights (YAY for relaxants!) I started feeling better overall. Thursday night I slept a full night and Friday morning although I was queasy it wasn't until 5am and I dozed on the couch while Logan watched mind-rotting PBS shows (j/k, they're good for him - HONEST!) for a couple hours... and then felt tolerably good all day.

Friday night I slept a full night, and Saturday morning the queasies didn't hit until 6am, and again only lasted an hour or so. Saturday night we went out to dinner with friends and I ate a full meal (Outback - YUM).

Saturday night I slept a full night, and Sunday morning... Julie let me sleep in. I slept soundly until about 7AM, and then dozed until 8:30 or so. I got up, had coffee while watching the last half-hour of "Willow" and then launched into my day. Felt GREAT all day, got a ton of stuff done on the computer, and noticed that the floaties in my eyes do NOT affect my abilities (or lack thereof) in Unreal Tourney 2003. (W00T!)

That brings us to today. Today I woke up HUNGRY. Queasy because I hadn't eaten since dinnertime (no dessert, no snack, 'cuz I was supposed to have an ultrasound this morning). When I finally got back to the house after the appointment, I devoured a HUGE breakfast (omelette, home fries, toast, coffee, juice) and it felt GOOD.

So, the verdict? Maybe I'm getting better. Yes, I still wake up queasy but not so much any more. Yes, my eyes are still messed up but they might be getting better (except the floaters).

I'll keep y'all informed, but things ARE looking up, it seems.

I think this is an exception to the rule. If Gurm is not always optimistic than I won't hold it against him if he IS optimistic about his health.

If you don't have your health than nothing else really matters as much.

I too am glad your feeling better!
