On The Road Again with Perfect Aim....

Denver

Rhea,
Gene was here several years ago. He should revisit us. I like him and took his PA lesson. Great....Gene has got 2k worth of action, or more, anytime he comes to CO.

Bring it. I think Gene is afraid to post if he has a chance to lose. I challenge any Gene supporter to come to CO and get down. Rhea, lots of lady players here in the mile high city...

Rhea you got 2/1 on the money when you can negotiate a fair game.......
Geno, Im beggin you to come out......... we want to see your action. Seriously))
 
Send me a PM and I'll set something up when i go to Denver

I gave about 50 lessons out there when I was there.

I made allot of friends. You must have improved to be calling me out. I will give you action when i come out there for sure.

Right now I'm trying to find out why i am having these darn siezures when i sleep. I wake up and I feel so tired I can't believe it. This is how I have been trying to play since May 4th.

Right now we are on the east coast but that can change in a quick hurry. It's going to get cold here soon so we will be heading to the west by the way of the south.

Getting older and being banged up right now I'm getting all kinds of offers.

CAN'T WAIT TO GET SOME PILLS OR SOMETHING SO i CAN SLEEP WELL.

i HAVE A SIEZURE about every hour. That sure cuts into your rem sleep. you need the rem sleep or you just don't get rested.

I'm still playing and still teaching. The road can be brutal but I'm kind of a tough old bird.

But what makes it possible is i love it to death.

If I could spend my last few breaths playing of teaching that would be my way to go.

A siezure in the night just ain't goin to cut it.

Send me that PM. I have to stop in Indy for some $5,000 action there locking up 2 sets for sure.

Then it's off to Beloit to play a friend of mine named Tom. Don't know what we will play for but it will be enough for sure.

These guys are both friends of mine and that will make it all the more fun.

I feel like everyone that i work with is a friend. But that doesn't mean that we can't mix it up a little.

Send me a PM or give me a call. 715-563-8712

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. Been a pretty tough last 5 days. Lots of lessons and not enough rest.

Neurologist tomorrow at 3:00.

Kind of excited to find out how I can finally get some rest. I got a tourny to knock off this weekend.

Thanks again.

One man a van and still on the road......

Rodney Morris Colorado is calling you ;-)
 
zbotiman said it I think. It may be sleep apnea.
I never knew, but it apparently can cause seizures.

Sleep apnea is associated with a higher incidence of many medical conditions, other than heart and circulation.
The links between apneas and the conditions are unclear.

There may be an association between seizures and obstructive sleep apnea, especially in older adults.

I have it a bit too if I try to sleep lying on my back.
Breath gets caught and I wake up. Can happen a bunch of times and leave you exhausted in the morning.
Trained myself to always sleep on my side.
 
I have a machine...........

That can be ruled out for sure. My machine works well and keeps the air flowing good.

Missed my appointment with the Neuroligist. Was yesterday. thought it was today.

Now they can't get me in until next week.

Need to try and see one in the next town. tough part is I need a referral.
 
Are you nuts? You have a freakin' phone don't you? Every phone has a datebook function. Even if you didn't have that, you know how to write, don't you? On top of that, you have a road partner to help you remember things. You're flirting with serious consequences, and you act like, "Oh well, I'll just see another doctor in another town." You were lucky to get the appt. you had. Some doctors are booked months in advance...especially specialists. :rolleyes:

Whoever set the appointment said Thursday at 3:30. I wrote it down.

I checked in my notebook later tonight.

Yes I did write it down.

I know this could be real bad and I was floored when they told me it was yesterday.

Nothing I could do about it. Their ball game.

I didn't write down the date. She probably said the right date but said Thursday by mistake.

Not much I can do except get another appointment with someone.

Problem is i need a referral for the insurance.
 
Saw the nuerologist today and

She gave me some pills and confirmed that I was having siezures for sure.

Put me on no driving restriction for 6 months until this is under control.

I got a script for levetiracetam 500 mg to take twice a day.

it's amazing. i can actually look at a shot and see the ball. i didn't realize how my eyes were moving all the time a little bit. I would be looking at something but felt like I was kind of looking from the side if that makes any sense.

I can look at a license playe and read the number. It wasn't that i couldn't see it but it seemed to be moving back and forth a little bit making it seem a kittke blurry. Kind of weird.

Have to see how this plays out but I felt a little droggy but made every shot tonight.

The tough ones I could zero in and fire. in the hole they went.

Just before this accident i won 3 tournys in a row. it was pretty messed up after that with many words even erased from my memory.

Won the tourny tonight and feel good about winning the qualifier tomorrow.

Excited to play with half of my brain back at least.

Just the opposite...........

Well shit...guess we ain't playing then :(

Iy looks like we play. it might just take a week or 2 to get used to the meds.

I can focus on the balls now. Kind of like a person that needs aderal that has attention deficiet disorder.

I really need this with my brain injury. Just wish it didn't take so long to find out.

I've had a real hard time typing on the threads since the accident. i need to go back and correct allot of mistakes.

Playing pool you can't go back and correct mistakes. Tonight is the first time in a long time that I could just zero in. I know how to aim. Just couldn't hold it steady.

Time will tell but I will be trying this out on a few guys on the road.

We're still on there me bobby.

We got a date and I will be there.

Hope things are well at home.

I edited my post. I guess I ain't playing then. I don't play on anything and now you have a miracle drug. :eek: Have to even it out...maybe lay me 6k to 5k or something. I'll talk to Hank.

Glad your feeling better tho! Looks like RRRRRRHHHHHHHHHHHEAAAAA has got the wheel from now on!! Try not to fall asleep while she's driving!
 
Nightly Bump for Gene so he can see this on front page...

Wanted to bump the thread for ya GENO so you don't have to search for it. Hopefully it stays on the front page by the time you two road warriors get back to the room.

How did the qualifier go? Rhea take anybody off tonight?
 
Thanks .......

Congrats to Gene for winning today's qualifier! :)

It was a race to 5. Double elim.

I lost the second match to an oriental kid from Q Masters area.

I guy I had to beat twice in the final was Eric moore I think. He plays pretty good. local guy.

I started taking the siezure meds last night and felt real groggy today.

The good news was i woke up and had no sore neck or shoulder. These siezures were really wrecking me. Looks like the meds are working.

I could actually focus on the ball I was shooting instead of feeling like I was just gazing.

I need to practice a little more to get this all back on track but the results today were promising.

I only got 6 hours sleep. Rhea got up at 10:00 and woke me up somehow. But not having a bunch of siezures I could still play tired.

Can't wait to play tomorrow or find a little action. I don't think it will happen around here though.

I too have trouble sleeping sometimes. Saw some TV commercials for ZZZQuil. (Makers on NiteQuil/DayQuil).

It's advertised as non-addictive - sole purpose is a sleep aid. Thinking I'll try it. Anyone here ever try it?

Go get 'em Gene and Rhea!


Matt <-- one keyboard and a can

I have tried Zquil and it works, although I haven't won any pool tournaments as a direct result of using it. I did however, once stay at a Holiday Inn and slept well.

One Benadryl and two Tylenol work as good, if not better, than any sleeping pill on the market.... That was a tip my family doctor gave me years ago. It works great! If you never do try it, that combination is well worth being aware of. 8-9 years ago I was doing a job about an hour from home, I was just finishing up and taking my last picture when a bee flew in the truck and stung me on the cheek. Knowing that swelling was coming I pulled into a store and got some Benadryl and took one. About 5 minutes later I remembered the headache that I had about 30 minutes prior and the Tylenol I had taken for it and was like "WTF?!?!?!". I spent the last 40 minutes or so of my drive on the phone with my wife fighting to stay awake....
 
Looks like the meds are doing their job

I didn't know it but it was like my eyes were jumping all the time. It was like I wasn't really looking at something but just gazing at it.

I can really get down and zero in a shot now. I can get down and really see it.

We're going to Albermarle, North Carolina for a tourny this Sat.

Then we are real close to Charlotte and plan on teaching up a Perfect (Aim) Storm and show them all something they have never seen. before.

Should stay busy there for about 3 weeks until I need to come back to Midlothian, Virginia for the East Coast 9 ball tour finally Main event on the 7th of dec.

Allot of big guns will be there.

I've been blaming this seizure thing on being diabetic.

Can't wait to practice and exercise more than ever before and not be all sore and wiped out.

One man a van and the road............See ya at Lucky shots this weekend:grin:
 
Hey Geno, hope all is well ! hit me up when your back in the EC area, maybe we could work on Doc a bit... LOL Take Care !!! Tim M
