Neurological Appointments... how did it go?

Today, I had my doctor's appointment to discuss my seizure disorder with not just one, but two neurologists. While it was disheartening, they did take my heart issue into consideration and reevaluated the treatment plan for my other neurological problems. They concluded that, for now, the priority should be deferring treatment to the cardiologist, as addressing my heart problems is crucial. They assured me that my neurological issues can be managed through physical therapy, though that won't be happening immediately. So, the best course of action is to focus on fixing my heart issues and consider neurological treatment in the future. I'll be okay as long as I faithfully take my medications. The main neurologist made me feel better by emphasizing that my issues are genetic and not my fault.

I can't help but wonder about my family's long lives. My father lived to be 93, my mother passed away recently at 92, and my aunts on both sides lived to be between 90 and 100. Yet, I can't shake the feeling that my own life may be much shorter, probably in my late 60s or early 70s. But who knows? With the advancements in medical technology, anything can change. Lately, I find myself sleeping a lot, and I used to blame it on the medication. However, the doctor explained that it might be my heart causing the fatigue due to insufficient blood flow, which takes longer for me to recover from. It's tough, and sometimes I feel hopeless, but I must face the reality of my situation.

On the spiritual side, I'm going through a tough phase. I currently feel spiritually weak and stagnant, like I'm not making any progress. It's hard to find motivation to move forward when, statistically speaking, my outlook seems bleak. But who knows? Life can be unpredictable, and I try to hold on to hope despite the odds. Right now, I feel like I'm part of "The Walking Dead," but maybe, just maybe, things can change. I'll keep striving and see where life takes me.

Have a great day. Neurology Hospitals in Chennai - AskMeBlogger

"Movie Review: Dune Part 1 & 2 🎬

  Spoiler Alert! Buckle up for a desert journey like no other! In the vast expanse of cinematic adaptations, Villeneuve's Dune emerges as a monumental undertaking, spanning two epic installments that delve into the rich tapestry of Frank Herbert's iconic sci-fi saga. While paying homage to the source material, these films chart their own course, offering a visually stunning and thematically resonant exploration of power, prophecy, and the human condition. Part 1: Betrayal and Escape The journey begins with Duke Leto Atreides, a nobleman entrusted with the stewardship of Arrakis, a desert planet coveted for its reserves of the spice melange—a substance essential for space travel and coveted by factions across the universe. Accompanied by his son, Paul, and Lady Jessica, a member of the secretive Bene Gesserit sisterhood, Duke Leto embarks on a perilous mission to Arrakis. However, their arrival triggers a chain of events orchestrated by the insidious House Harkonnen and the shad

I had my Math test today...Epilepsy had other plans.

Today, I had my algebraic concept final test and I failed. Of course, my body sabotaged my efforts. This seems to be the norm with everything I do. That is when "everything I do" is extremely important and "the everything I do" maybe a life changer. Passing a math course is a life changer. So let me describe how it went today. Keep this note in mind I studied the entire weekend and the more I study things got more complicated As I wrote many times before, my neurologist and gastroenterologist have repeatedly told me that when my brain acts up my gut will too. When I take any other academic tests I usually don't get sick. I have taken all my meds and then I take life day by day. As I mentioned in previous posts on the internet maybe Facebook or G Plus, I have a few abnormalities in the brain. These abnormalities affect my behavior and my thought processes. It is not that bad but I perceive and understand things a little bit differently and that is why I may

Asimov's Foundation and Philosophy

  The essays in Asimov's Foundation and Philosophy are engaging and thought-provoking, and they offer new insights into one of the most influential science fiction series of all time. Here are some of the key philosophical themes that emerge from the essays: The ethics of manipulation: One of the central questions raised by the Foundation series is whether it is ethical to manipulate large populations of people in order to bring about a desired future result. Hari Seldon, the fictional founder of the Foundation, uses psychohistory, a science that can predict the future of large populations, to plan for the collapse of the Galactic Empire and the subsequent Dark Age. He does this in order to ensure that human civilization survives and eventually rebuilds. However, some people argue that Seldon's manipulation of the future is unethical, even if it is for a good cause. Free will vs. determinism: The Foundation series also raises the question of whether humans have free will or whe
