The Ka-tet Cantina

I know about dry heat. We were in the Nevada desert , close to area 51, and the humidity was at 2% or less. That was hot. Grand canyon was much cooler.

Absolutely! There's quite a variety of landscape and microclimates in Arizona, not just desert.

It is not a good thing to get yer head hit.

(((NN))) It must be horrible. Makes everything so much more difficult, i can imagine, when your brain isn't behaving the way you're used to. From the small things to the big things. I'm afraid i'm not a nurse but i can offer my support for what is it worth at the moment.

 

[not_nadine]

The board helps to clear the mind. Thankya It will heal

Better start soon though.

If you're having this many problems, it sounds more serious than just a concussion. It sounds like a TBI. Drinking is not going to help in either case, however, so the sooner you can stop that, the better in many ways.

You said you had an MRI- but didn't go back for results? You need follow -up NN. I understand you are not found of medical, pain meds etc. but you need to find out for sure what is happening. It sounds like the brain is having issues healing.
Ck out some of the systems of just MILD TBI--

Spoiler: symptoms of mild TBI

Common Symptoms of Mild TBI

• Fatigue
• Headaches
• Visual disturbances
• Memory loss
• Poor attention/concentration
• Sleep disturbances
• Dizziness/loss of balance
• Irritability-emotional disturbances
• Feelings of depression
• Seizures

Other Symptoms Associated with Mild TBI

• Nausea
• Loss of smell
• Sensitivity to light and sounds
• Mood changes
• Getting lost or confused
• Slowness in thinking

These symptoms may not be present or noticed at the time of injury. They may be delayed days or weeks before they appear. The symptoms are often subtle and are often missed by the injured person, family and doctors.

The person looks normal and often moves normal in spite of not feeling or thinking normal. This makes the diagnosis easy to miss. Family and friends often notice changes in behavior before the injured person realizes there is a problem. Frustration at work or when performing household tasks may bring the person to seek medical care.

What is your spirit animal?


The Wolf

The Wolf: Your life is your family. You wrap your mind and heart around them. You are most close to your kids or parents, and you wish that you could be as close as possible to them, even if they've already gotten lives of their own. You believe in the family network, and want them to be close to home.

Your home is where your family is, and that's easy to see, but letting go is one of the toughest things you'll have to do. You can't check up on them everyday, or freak out when they're not around. Just relax and know that everything is okay.

 

[Spideyman]

The Deer

The Deer: You are a shy type of sorts. You'd rather be home, reading, watching TV, or even sleeping on your days off. You let very few people into your life, but you are best friends to those you do let in. You're often private & reserved, and you're the listener in the conversations that you have.

Your comfort zone lies in the hands of just a couple people, and that's okay. Trust is a big thing to give out, but don't be shrewd to the people that want into your life.

Something is going wrong with the boards. I can't post my reply to animal.

I am a Deer.

That's what I wanted to post! Thankee.

The Salmon

The Salmon: You are one to always look back before moving on. You probably scrapbook or take a lot of pictures. Your memories are fond, so you like to look back on colder days. You are most likely wiser among friends and family, because you learn from past experiences before moving forward. You forgive but never forget.

Though you may revel in your memories, don't forget to make new ones! Listen to new songs, dance new dances, and make new friends. Don't ever get stuck in a rut, because you may fall asleep and wake up years later.

Please get a checkup, n_n. Behave now.

I have stopped that. It was terrible to start again. Self Medication does not work. At All.

 

[do1you9love?]

The Bear: You are the compass of love. People come to you with relationship issues, heartbreak issues, and you are perfectly fine with that. It's hard when you're away from the people that love you. You never do anything alone, a trip for one has no interest for you unless it's a trip to find love that you don't have.

To you, the best thing in the world is your husband or wife. To everyone else, they love you for your mercy and forgiveness, because your offer both easily. However, when someone makes you angry enough where it's hard to forgive them, just remember that they are human. You would want their forgiveness as well.

 

[ghost19]

I've just bought an extra supply of Vitamin D. Pills that you chew. Hopefully they are good. I'm with you on the sun thing. Totally understand people that worshipped the sun. Very logical. I've been to Arizona, but only as far as Grand Canyon, don't know if that qualifies as southern Arizona? Will post about the book when read and pondered about it awhile.

I hope you get to feeling better sir. If you're ever in the States, stop on by here in Arkansas. Plenty of sunshine, lots of mountains, and plenty of locally brewed beer to sample. I can only imagine how beautiful Sweden is throughout the year. Stay safe sir.

 

[Neesy]

Good Tuesday morning all!

I got... The Apache.
You belong in the Apache Tribe! Known as the fierce warriors of the Southwest, the Apache name itself means "enemy". They were infamous for waging war and raiding their neighbors, often enough with the motive of economic gain. This particular tribe was male dominant, having applied gender roles where the women stayed home while the men went out and hunted and traveled. The tribe also practiced polygamy in many of its scattered regions, making it a one man- many women household. The Apache were also advanced in their arts and crafts skills, but most importantly basket-weaving. They were also a superstitious clan, relying heavily on spiritual and religious practice to appease the gods they worshiped. This included ceremonial dances, sand-painting, and the use of Medicine Men as ceremony leaders. You belong in the Apache Tribe due to your strong-natured will and need for survival. You believe firmly in going after what you want and taking it with no consequence in order to protect and provide for those around you. You would fit in well with the Apache Tribe based on your idea of old fashioned family values, and would have no problem spending your days in creation mode, both painting and weaving baskets as a source of interest and income.

Hmmm.

Hmmmm - you must be quite fierce! (underneath it all). Take THAT you crummy bananas!
