Marnie et al:

definition of a crackpot = psycho-ceramic

Cindy:

My doc once explained that having urininary retention can leave the urinary

tract inflamed making flow more difficult and occasionally causing small

blood vessels to rupture - again, more water, more emptying

Jim;

Congrats, must be both thrilling and discombobulating.

Brain exercises;

I have a number of books of quotes and try to memorize and use in

conversation; also set them up along with physics (formulas, laws) and

latin phrases on a screensaver (set on ramdom); when I sit overwhelmed and

feeling without direction I put it on and do my best to get caught up in it

(rather like playing not-so-trivial pusuit by yourself). You have to make

these things up to suit, match latin names to your garden plants, buy a

book of brain teasers. Studies have shown with alzheimer patients those

who use it still lose it but much more slowly. Be patient, fill in the

akward brain fog patches with humour, not frustration (does not alwys

work). As my universe collapses ever smaller, I respond by making my

smaller universe more intricate, which really compnsates to a very great

degree. At this rate my universe should be on the purely molecular level

in a couple of years (works for Hawking).

Marcel;

One thought per week, or only one you dare write about? You said you lived

in Rotterdam? I was born in Amsterdam, then lived in Hoogvliet (pappa

worked at ROV Shell, as research chemist), moved to Beek Limburg (where I

loved it) then moved to Canada, moved back several times with different

dance companies, later worked out of Instituut voor Kunstzinnige Vormen in

Middelburg, by best friend lives in Spijkernisse, with any luck this year I

might make it home for a few months. Do they stil have lunch hour concerts

at " de doelen " ? As far as the tapes - can the tapes be converted into MP3

files and downloaded that way?? My X did that for his voice demo? If it

is lengthy it could be segmented..

I'm going to keep mentioning this until I get some answers -

what does MSA do to a woman's reproductive system, I even contacted the

authors of Out Bodies Ourselves, nothing. I can't be the only one who has

ever had to tackle MSA and being pre-menopausal female - let's just

consider what menopause can do to a normal woman let alone one with an out

of whack autonomic system. If you cannot perpire how do you deal with hot

flashes - or do you simply not get them? Who would have the best overview,

the neuro, endocinologist or a gyno?

Anyhoo, should get some sleep. Night.
