I'll wager many of you will not disagree with my thread title, but the truth is I really am.
A little over a week ago I was diagnosed as having Myasthenia Gravis, or MG. MG is a neuro-musculure disease that affects the brain/muscle signal resulting in weakening of the voluntary muscles. Luckily, the smooth muscles such as heart, and digestive system are not affected. Early symptoms include drooping eyelid, and double vision (it's a real problem sitting here trying to type). More advanced stages include: Difficulty swallowing, and breathing.
Treatment is available, however, and from what I read, reasonably successful.
I haven't played pool in almost two months, and have no idea as to when I might play again. It is very frustrating. And scary.
I'm going to lay low for awhile. I don't feel very funny these days anyway, and treatment for this thing may be a long drawn out affair.
Peace to all in the coming new year, and just to cover my Karmic ass, that goes to JB, and PJ, as well.
