    that sounds horrible

    basically if you ever have had chicken pox

    the virus doesn't leave your system, it just gets locked down in the ganglia of your spine

    where it stays, kept in check by your immune system

    this protects you from ever getting chicken pox again BUT if something happens to your immune system later in life (such as it did with me) then the virus gets loose and proceeds to wreck up the place arrrrooooooooo

    so then you get the shingles

    shingles is very contagious, but with a proviso: you can't catch the shingles, but if someone has the shingles and you've never had chicken pox, you can catch chicken pox.

    there are people i work with who have not had chicken pox, so, i am not allowed to come into work until i've been cleared by a doctor, which won't happen until at least july 9th.

    so instead i am going to sit the next two weeks on unemployment bangin' back opiods and hoping to god i don't develop an addiction to this stuff

    Pony do shingles ever go away?

    yes and no

    the outbreak i am currently experiencing will likely pass in a week or two

    but the virus will never leave my system ever and if something tanks my immune system like it did before then whoooosh shingles are back

    and every time you get em it increases the chance that you will get them again

    OH!

    and also there is this thing called postherpetic neuralgia that is basically permanent nerve damage and i may have to deal with chronic pain for the rest of my life because of this

    which may lead to permanently being on hydromorphone or something similar

    hooray because it's not like i used to have a drug problem and spent a year in rehab or anything whooooo

    fuck man

    between this and zonky thread this is just a poor night

    the zonky thread made me cry a little

    for totally self-centered reasons and if that makes me a prick i am sorry

    i wasn't crying for zonky, i don't really mourn people, what with my brain being screwy and all

    no it's that reading that thread and everyone being affected by the dude's life and then his passing it reminded of the thing i've been trying to put in the back of my mind for the past week, which is that my own death is quite likely imminent and i have no idea how much time i have left and i am terrifed and depressed and i am worried about the people i leave behind my fiancee especially

    on the upside i think it is a sign that i am developing a better ability to empathize with others which is cool because i've been trying real hard at that for years

    but on the downside empathy for others hurts i don't know how you people don't get driven insane by these things

    Pony I think you should know that all us normal people are pretty crazy in various ways too

    also you cannot die until you write a book about your life

    the world needs to know your story

    yeah you know what's not a pretty neat experience

    allowing her to get close to me and trust me and let herself love me just for me to turn around and die

    because you know that will do wonders for her self esteem and ability to care about anyone ever again

    part of me wants to break up with her right now just because i am afraid that if i don't, when i croak within the next few months it's going to destroy her

    i love her so much i want to save her that pain even if it hurts her now

    but then i don't, because i don't want to give up hope that i ain't gonna croak and ultimately i can't stand the idea of choosing to hurt her

    so pony that means you have two options you've outlined in that post

    either have a terrible life until you maybe die who knows when

    or try to enjoy however much time you have left

    I'm pretty sure this lady has a good idea of what she's gotten into with you

    Pony look at it this way, if you die in the next few months (and I obviously hope you don't) regardless those few months may be the happiest you will spend with her, you don't really know. Or you will be hopefully fine in a few months and wont be with her in a few months because you foolishly broke up with her.

    Point is that half the point of having feelings is taking risks for the rewards.
