Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

Discussion Threads

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Ann, that's a ferret.

So, in the perpetual drama that my life has become. (Cue Roseanne Roseannadanna: It's always something.)

I've been diagnosed with Chronic Inflammatory Demyelilnating Polyneuropathy -- or it's easier to call it CIDP. Short version -- my immune system is attacking the peripheral nerves in my feet (mostly) and my hands.

I walk with a cane now. Without treatment, there's a good chance I'd end up in a wheelchair. Luckily, there's treatment -- consisting of IV injections, 5 days a month, lasting several hours each time. So, hey, more teleworking, less commuting. My goal is to improve enough to join a bowling league this fall. The neurologist says it's feasible.

Bonus irony: I've probably had it for quite a while. So last year's back surgery was probably not necessary.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh dear, Fred. I'm glad you have a diagnosis and treatment plan. It's always something is right.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, Fred, those sound like pretty unpleasant symptoms. I'm glad you know what it is and have a plan!

Herding cats for fun

Hope the bowling will be very feasible for you.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I cheer for the feasibility and the treatment.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Oh wow, Fred. Very happy you got the diagnosis and treatment plan and bowling feasibility, but ouch, the way. Much, much ~ma to you.

Thrive to spite them

Fred I hope the treatments work better than expected.

I have new glasses. Progressives. This is weird. I don't think the prism strength is right but I have to wait a few days to adjust.

Also work continues to be its own stress. But they are going to try and get me transferred in about 2 weeks

Ann, that's a ferret.

askye -- Progressives do take a little getting used to. But it's worth it.

Thanks to all for the thoughts. It never ends.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Fred, add my good wishes in there, would you? I should have said before.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

All love and rapid improvement ~ma to you, Fred.
