Good I have been doing that. She is finally sleeping . That is a good sign, she hasn't slept in like 76 hours.

I meant you said you were freaked out. What did people say to calm you down.

Well, it started with me not feeling so well all day long. I sat down to have dinner with my family, I picked up my fork and it felt like I had just walked into the sun. My whole body felt like it was on fire. I started shaking like crazy. My eyes (supposedly) started to roll back. My brother grabbed me and pinned me down, while my dad called the hospital and rushed me over there. I kept shaking until they got these big buckets of ice and put my arms and legs in them.

It ended up being part of a bigger virus I had. I couldn't hold anything for over a month. I was 17 at the time. Kind of sucks needing your family to dress you, brush your teeth for you, cut your food for you, etc. when you're 17

The actual seizure? I don't remember exactly

I was sick for around 5 weeks then another 3-4 months until I got fully healthy again. It sucked, my fever hovered around 105 degrees for a week then it "dropped" to 103.5, I couldn't walk more than a few feet without help from someone, my eyes were bloodshot red half the time, I lost just about all my hair, a full layer of skin, and 45 pounds (which at the time meant I was under 100 lbs.).

They tested me for everything under the sun (TB, Lyme Disease, and so on) but couldn't ever pinpoint the problem. And they were reluctant to give me any medicine because they were afraid of the reaction my body and the virus would have to it (plus I'm allergic to aspirin so even that wouldn't help). Ultimately though it subsided thankfully.

that's good to hear. But I never heard of that before. Maybe you drank what is known as "heavy water"

Good evening LB. How are you? Long time no talk.

I think eventually they determined I had something similar to this

Babesiosis

But not exactly that

I am doing well. Yes, it has been an eternity since we last spoke. Nice sig btw. At least you found some humor in it.

I actually thought that was a joke at first until I clicked on it. I was expecting to see some hottie on the link.
The last we talked about it, I thought you didn't know what it was, but that link makes sense.

Haha, yeah I suppose with a name like Babesiosis, I could see where you might think that.

But yeah that's what they suspected it came closest to, but were reluctant to actually diagnose it as such
