Absence makes the heart grow fonder?

I really am my own worst enemy.

I announced a while ago that I was going to try to boost this site a bit, and then what do I do?  I go and leave it unattended for weeks on end.

Maybe I chose a bad time.  The old medications are fucking up the head a bit, so writing isn’t as easy these days.  Maybe a trip to the old Horse Doctor is the answer to my ranking problems? 

I wrote a few months ago about RLS.  This has become progressively worse over the last while.  I am taking medication to suppress the symptoms, and that medication is doing a grand job.  I am getting a good nights sleep, and the symptoms during the day are bearable.  However that same medication has the side effect of slowing the brain to a crawl, so that the simple act of writing a short post like this becomes quite a task. 

It may seem reasonable, that if a medication is having deleterious side effects, that I should come off it.  However, you can take it from me – I would rather the side effects to the incessant RLS!!

So it is time to make an effort.  It is time to squint my brain and try to update this a bit more.

Time will tell.

  1. Hah! You and me both and I wouldn’t give up the medication either though I suppose since I recommended the stuff in the first place this is all my fault.

    Sometimes I find myself wishing more and more for a diagnostic bed in the sickbay of the Starship Enterprise. At least then there’d be a chance of a permanent fix?

    Good luck with the brain squinting.

  2. I think it is time for a reevaluation? Bugger!!

  3. Last time I had a reevaluation they signed me up for another 6 year hitch. Perhaps I’ll just pass then and keep taking the medication.

  4. Sorry to hear you’re suffering but good that the meds are making it tolerable.

  5. Kirk M – Maybe I should sign up for the Silent Service?

    Baino – Suffering is a strong word. The way I look at it, life could be a hell of a lot worse!! ;)
