Update on Health/ BLFC and Badges
9 years ago
So got the MRI results back. It shows that I have the herniated cerebellur tonsil thing still (it's a thing in the back/bottom of the brain), 4 mm so I'll be going to a neurosurgeon some ways off to see what his thoughts on the matter are. It appears there some inflamation in the brain just below that. I've also got some disc degeneration which they said is a bit odd for my age, but not particularly dangerous. There's a narrowed region..thing in some part of the spinal fluid passageway which is problematic and additionally there is some...thing I forgot the name of that doesn't have enough spine fluid stuff. Soooo I'm supposed to get that stuff looked into. They think the inflamation may be the cause of my splotchy memory. They suspect I have a relatively high likelyhood of having Chiari I, but that will be for the neurosurgeon to decide, and additionally for him to decide if I should have the surgery or not.
BLFC, so long as the neurosurgeon appointment doesn't land on it, I'm going to -try- to make it there, since its only 2/3 hours away. My parents said they'd take me. So we'll see how that all plays out. If I do go I probably won't be doing much, haha. Maybe sitting around somewhere, drawing or something. I'm always happy to meet people though.
Badge commissions are basically permanently open, so if interested, just toss me an e-mail at sharkyfloof[at]gmail.com
As for the going away part--this part sucks. It basically sounds like my doctor things reading overstimulates my brain and may never be fully cured. He made it sound like eventually at some unnown point in the future I may be able to read-some- that's not good with me, nor has readng giving me troubles beyond headaches. So long story short I will be around only very limited. And for a time I may be away entirely. I'm basically going to see what he wants to do and try to do it some. But I am NOT leaving permanently. There's no real basis that reading is causing me any real trouble, so it's more or less just to appease the doctor for now. So my appearance will be splotchy. Right now I'm around(ish). So I'll probably post some stuff up and then post a journal indicating I'm not entirely around etc.I don't want to leave too long/entirely because I've worked really hard to get where I am and I feel like if I'm away too long it'll mess it all up. So there you have it. Current things going on.

Glad to hear that figured out what the issue was, but it does suck that you have to deal with it.
Wish for a swift and full recovery.
