Sweaty palms ...

Today hasn't been the best of days thus far: I'm experiencing rolling nausea (a tiny bit o'vomiting) with sweaty palms ... a little feverish I would guess ... maybe a little bug. :-\

And of course ... throw in the aching, etc. ho hum!

Keeping my chin up,
R.


PS: I hope you stop to remember Dr. King today with a moment of peace - today is his actual birthdate (Jan. 15, 1929).

:-]

I survived the holidays ...

heh heh heh ... I hope you did too.

I was actually too sick to do anything. :-\

All the usual suspects: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, severe aches and pains, itching, muscle cramping in my feet and legs, mouth ache (believe it or not), bruising and bleeding, and profound fatigue!!! I'm still thinking I may have to move to the first floor of the house .. the stairs are a killer!!!

:-\

I am about to receive a document (as is NCNM) from my doctor, in which, she recommends my not returning to work due to the degenerative nature of my incurable disease. This document was faxed to NCNM on October 30, however it was illegible. I did not receive a copy so I was unaware of its specifics. :-\

And, unfortunately, I (and my partner) agree that no one would be best served by my returning. I cannot work longer than 15 minutes before I am generally overcome by exhaustion / profound fatigue. Of course, lest we forget the "fuzzy brain" -- it is the weirdest thing I have ever experienced.

So ... it is with a heavy heart that I must pass the torch [**] to the new NCNM Campus Receptionist. I do hope you will continue to follow my progress here at Living with PBC dot com. Keep those emails coming. I promise to respond! :-)

All my best!
Robert


PS: Next doctor appointment: January 25 - status check; blood work
