A ghost.\u00a0 My neurological system is so screwed up, I now have ghosts living in side of me. &#8212; If there weren&#8217;t enough of us in here as it is. LOL.<\/p>\n<p>The internal ghost vibrations have ghost heating pads to keep them company.\u00a0 I feel like I have a heating pad applied to the outside of my body, and it keeps moving.\u00a0 The warm spots last for about a minute then move.\u00a0 It keeps life interesting.<\/p>\n<p>One thing of note: The spasm I had Friday night (I referred to it as a lightning spasm) did some lasting damage.\u00a0 I&#8217;m walking, kinda, with the help of a krutch, or wheelchair.\u00a0 Either is difficult.\u00a0 I&#8217;ve injured about 60-70% of the muscles in the left side of my being, from head to toe.\u00a0 Mobility is an issue again. I can&#8217;t put weight on my left leg, and my left arm is in sufficient pain to make operating the wheel of a chair difficult, and painful.\u00a0 I generally choose to gimp around on a crutch because I can suspend my weight on it.\u00a0 I&#8217;m trying to heal the muscles using the RICE technique as much as I can. Hopefully, mobility will improve in a couple of days.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for reading, God Bless,<\/p>\n<p>Jay C.
