Anyone Seen Polygon AGAIN!

Bad news guys! Polygon is back in the hospital. Friday night he wasn't doing so good. He was tingling all over and couldn't feel different parts of his body. His speech was getting slured and he was losing control of his body.

I haven't been able to talk to him directly but he is doing better. I'm not only good friends with him but also his mother. Last night I was able to talk to her and she told me all this. The doctor he has been seeing apparently is a goof. She didn't tell him that after a operation like he had you need to take b12, calsium, and magnisum supplements, as perscribed by the "doctor." He wasn't taking any of these because his "doctor" didn't tell him too, which is why he's in the position he's in now.

Anyways, Best wishes dude and we hope to see you really soon. Well get your stealth all taken care of and then go slash the tires of that stupid doctor that did this to you.

Seriously get better soon.

Pull through Polygon, i know you will

So he ended up going to the hospital after a night of heavy drinking? Pansy.






I kid. Best of luck Polly, ya already pulled through once, might as well do it again, lol. See if you can get your money back from the first doctor. Say something like medical malpractice. Not sure what it means, but it scares the living shit outa them, I hear. Look at it this way-you need to get better so you can get back into that Stealth and go whup some ass.

Wow, get better.......agian.

Don't crap out on us Poly...I still need to come back to Utah and smoke your ass!!!

stay up buddy...

best wished to mr polygon. i suggest finding a more competent doctor too :)

Get well soon, Poly...

Well, I'm back.

I was released yesterday from the hospital. I swear that my doctor is trying to kill me. This time I had some strange symptoms. Thursday September 20th I started to feel a very slight tingling in my hands. The kind of feeling you get when you loose circulation. I was using the computer at the time so I thought that's what was happening and thought nothing of it. That Saturday I started to feel dizzy again while grocery shopping. By Monday the tingling was getting worse and had moved to my legs. Tuesday my speech began to slur and I began to loose motor control. By Wednesday I began to have convulsions, almost like seizures and they got worse throughout the week, also the tingling had moved to my face and my teeth began to hurt in the gums. By Thursday I was having a lot of trouble doing anything. By Friday I couldn't eat, walk or even empty my ileostomy bag. It was Friday at about 11:00 a.m. that I had someone take me to the emergency room at the University of Utah hospital.

It turns out that I had a vitamin B12, calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D deficiency. I was treating the B12 at the time with injections on advice from my doctor. She also told me to get an over-the-counter supplement for the others. However, they were far worse than that. I don't recall how low the calcium was but the magnesium was at 0.02. They said I should either be catatonic (vegetable) or dead. I needed an IV of both the calcium and magnesium right away.

Right now I have my motor control back for the most part and I should be back to normal next week I hope.

Thanks for the concern, again, guys.

Well, I'm back.

I read that and all I can think of was the follwoing line refering to the character Doug on the TV show Scrubs:

"I swear, that intern has killed so many people I think he just may be a government agent."

Good to hear your back!

Now lets keep it this way

no kiddin

glad to see your okay polygon!

Everytime i leave and come back you're sick poly...s.o.b....


Get healthy will ya..lol

Thanks for caring guys, seriously. :)

Well, my speech is almost back to normal and I'm not dizzy anymore. In fact after getting out of the hospital there have been a lot of changes. It's like I'm a new person, or more accurately, I'm like I was before I ever got Chron's as Neutrino and BeZerk know, I'm a little OCD. Before I would let things pile up and get out of order, it was like I was lazy. Now I am keeping things as they should be. Before I wanted to do things but I felt like crap so I never did them. I usually spent time on the couch watching TV and working. I used to not have a big appetite and I was very picky. Now I'll eat almost anything except beets, and a lot of it. Lastly, I didn't sleep well before. Now I have energy to do stuff during the day and I sleep well at night.

Not only that, but now I'm allowed to work out and lift up to 50 pounds. So I can work on my car now. Also, when I left the hospital and lost all the water weight, which isn't real weight, I was around 110 pounds. Yesterday I was at the doctors and I was at 155. Just 25 pounds away from my goal!

If you didn't feel like reading that, in short, I feel better than I've felt in 7 years. Oh, and Civ, I don't look skinny and pale anymore. :)

awesome man!

Oh, and Civ, I don't look skinny and pale anymore. :)

Are you fat and pale now??? :biggrin:

Glad you are ok dude!
