Some days, I'm only half joking about the above. Today is one of those days. Blood pressure and heart rate are all over the place, got the Mother of all Migraines, and I'm just making time 'till the meds kick in. I know my emotions will be much improved once my heart stops pounding, my blood pressure gets normal and I'm not in so much pain I'm on the verge of banging my head against a brick wall cuz it'll hurt _less_ !!!!

Thanx for listening to my vent. It helps to know you guys understand.

(((Mike))))) thanks for the smile. Fortunately I only feel like that a few times a year. Wonder what kind of bids you would get on ebay? lol:atv

it's a bugger when the old body won't work in the ways it is meant to. If I live to an old age, I will be in big trouble.

I get the heart thumping thing from time to time. Docs checked it and can't figure out what it is from. Just like they can't figure out why I have phases of wanting to pass out.

Life is never dull when your body/health is like an amusement park. I was going to say house of horror, but that is too self pitying. lol

How about a really bad foreign monster movie. It's so bad you wish it would just end, but then you realize it's the only show in town.

Hit a button - presto chango...
