[QUOTE]Originally posted by HopefulNebula: [QB] What kind of boss gives you a birthday off? And how do I get to work there? Anyway. I guess I finally have something to say in here. Not as acute as everyone else's stories, but still sucky. (medical intro: Hi, I'm Nebby. Severely underdeveloped nervous system, mildly autistic, sinuses extremely prone to infection, severe chronic depression, and pretty much screwed from all genetic fronts.) The short version: Around March of this year, I started having problems with my energy level. Namely, I didn't have one. After missing loads of classes in a week, I finally hied myself over to the college's med center, where they did a few blood tests and ruled out mono and anemia. Not long after, I got what I thought was a nasty sinus infection, and thought "oh, that explains it." I went on Cipro for 10 days and thought that was the end of it, since at least my sinuses were better. Well, it wasn't. After my grades tanked even further because of this, and the energy problems persisted even through the summer, I went to my primary doctor. He tells me that the test the school did for mono is only effective for a period of about 5-10 days, which to a months-long infection is nothing. Anything outside of that gives a negative. So, I had a buncha blood drawn for tests that are actually effective. Good news is, my thyroid's lovely. Bad news is, I did contract mono sometime in March. At least I'm not contagious now, and it's not severe. Never was. One of my cousins missed a year of middle school when he had it, because when he had the energy to get up, his spleen was too inflamed to risk it. So, I'm writing to my advisor re: retaking classes and the med center re: why the fuck don't they do an effective test. *sigh* [/QB][/QUOTE]
