Ok.\u00a0 So the spasms are back, and they are pissed.\u00a0 But, I think I may have noticed a sequence of events leading up to the beginning.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u00a0Random zones of heat:\u00a0 It feels like you have a heating pad on an area for about a minute, and then it moves.<\/li>\n
  2. Small muscle cramps and tiny twitches.<\/li>\n
  3. Knees really feel unsteady.<\/li>\n
  4. Left side of face feels pulled.<\/li>\n
  5. Mental confusion\/anxiety<\/li>\n
  6. Unsteadiness in the lower extremities lead to debilitation.<\/li>\n
  7. Chest heavy, hard to breathe<\/li>\n
  8. and.. then … they start.\u00a0 Easy at first, then very painful.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Somewhere in there, I start sweating (drinking myself) and my legs swell.<\/p>\n

    In the after affects, what I’ve noticed is:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. sleep….. this immediately follows the peak of the spasms.\u00a0 You sleep because the pain has put such a drain on your body and mind.<\/li>\n
    2. You feel like you have been in a fight with a baseball bat and lost.<\/li>\n
    3. You eat to replace your spent energy (anything, even leather from the couch)<\/li>\n
    4. You sleep to repair the damage done to your body (this is good sleep)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      I’ve taken narcotics.\u00a0 I was a brave boy on Sunday.\u00a0 I said, “screw that” today.\u00a0 I’m tired, both mentally and physically.<\/p>\n

      Note:\u00a0 My wife and daughter took over the soup-making and it was absolutely incredible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
