Yeah Drogheda. On a ward now, hope all the oul lads don't snore too much

Can your phone charger reach a socket from your bed?

Best of luck Egg. Sending good vibes your way.

It can. I actually recorded some of the snores last night - one fella has something wrong with his voice and his snores sounded like a cross between a moaning child and a tiny trumpet. After each one another guy in the room would mutter "dear Jesus"

Glad you're out

Not to pry, but do you have VHI and all that or are you at the mercy of the state?

 

[Reets]

Glad you’re out, maybe a good night sleep before the scan might be better for the tests.

I met a guy in the ward who'd seen Herbie Hancock and Keith Jarrett live. Saw Keith Jarrett in a pub in Ashbourne - apparently he was on hols in Ireland and the publican recognised him and got him to do a gig

They have an MRI machine in Navan now. I've previously gone to Smithfield. But I'll be trying to go to Navan in future.

So in an MRI like a doctor's punt?
Like fuck-it, ask the machine?

Or are they trying to narrow it down from some prime suspects?

They're making sure it's not a brain tumour or stroke

 

[magicbastarder]

i had a CT scan for some weirdness many years ago. turns out i was just dealing with a virus which was never identified. hopefully it's something as benign as that for you.

Hope you get the all clear, man

It can rule out other disorders too. I had one when I was diagnosed with epilepsy. Not to make the diagnosis but to check if my hippocampus was scarring as a result. (All was good)

HIPPOCAMPUS - I can't remember hearing of that before. I must be getting demented.

It’s the Latin for seahorse, when you remove the human hippocampus it looks remarkably similar:


It has a number of regions like the dentate gyrus and CA1, CA2, and CA3. (CA standing for Cornu Ammonis…)

I don't feel comfortable about having one of those inside my head
