Hi folks,

Tried to post my status update here earlier, but it
disappeared into the machinery somehow. Here
it is again in briefer form.

Turns out that my original set of problems (at
least according to WebMD) was caused by not
having my diabetes under good control. I switched
my diabetes medicine from Metformin to Glipizide,
and the original problems mostly subsided. Now
I've got to get rid of the remaining effects of the
original symptoms (e.g. rebuild my strength and
balance), clear out the memory problems from the
Versed anesthetic, and deal with the slow but steady
worsening of my hand tremors. All this ought to
keep me busy for a while.

Horrifying to see that long, long needle going into
Dan's knee! I hope he gets some relief out of it.

PS--Please excuse the (now corrected) mistake in
the name of my earlier diabetes medicine. My memory
is even worse than I'd remembered. (Joke intended.)
