BF answer... HTFU.

I'd say... maybe do some easy miles next.

dayum kid hell up.

So not related to the clipless topple?

I would guess that in rare instances anybody can have a stroke. When it's neurological, don't F around. You did the right thing.

Will do :thumb:

Don't think so. They said def. complex migraine, and both my parents get/used to get migraines, so I can thank them for that.

I suppose so, but the EMS people were reassuring, even though they pulled up in a friggin fire truck.

is this migraine attack a regular thing? if so you might be able to work out what triggers it. i knew a girl who got it by eating chocolate which was rather unfortunate since chocolate is tasty stuff.

They don't know. In middle school it was actually the stuff they cleaned with on the weekend, so I would get a migraine every Monday. Now they aren't sure of the cause, but it is genetic. Not chocolate anyway, I just ate a hersheys bar.

This was the worst one so far - the pain was mild, but the overall thing was what they called a "complex migraine". I've never had more than just head pain + nausea before.

thank goodness it isn't chocolate. that would be a severe blow.

Speaking of chocolate, my local Staples sent me a box of Brownie Points, Inc. brownies today, with a little sales pitch. I guess they're trying to bribe me into using them more for office supplies.

I already buy all my supplies at their store, but the profit on the volume of office supplies I buy wouldn't even pay for a Biro.

The brownies are very tasty just the same.

That's awesome.

I just gave my new Gillette Fusion Proglide it's first run. It is the best. Ever. Srsly.

are you talking about leg shaving? everyone is talking about shaving tonight.

Run Away, Run Away

I'm not. Face. I couldn't get the stupid hospital sticky stuff off my leg hair though, so I shaved it, and now I have a bald patch. I will tell my friends it is from 'Nam. I plan to shave legs, just can't during the school year. I don't have da womens climbin' all over me as it is.

there are a lot of migraine meds, If one doesn't work just move onto the next. They all work differently for different people.

On a serious note I know you are excited about the MA race (I have been stalking the junior thread) if something like that happens just pull out!

PS I also have a race on the 10th It will be my 10th cat 5 race (pending no disasters). I am pretty excited about that.

Nice! Good luck in the 4s.

I'll pull if I get one, sure. I have excedrine which I usually use, and prescription immitrex ($20/pill) which I use very sparingly due to cost.

How the eff do you do these?

sqrt(45)/sqrt(5)? The answer is 4sqrt(5)

And

5sqrt(3)-9sqrt(3)+sqrt(25)? The answer is -sqrt(3)

Figured out the math :).

Math final tomorrow, we get out at 10:30 am. School starts at 8:35. :thumb:

Ok: sqrt(3x-2)=x
Answer is 2, 1

Sadly people much younger than 95 have strokes. It's probably very rare at 16 though.

The problem is that when you experience new symptoms for something you just don't know what to compare it to. And it only takes being wrong once to really put an end to your racing plans.

Did they say how having a migraine causes your arm to go numb? I'm unfamiliar with that.

I know, they just didn't really take it as a possibility since vital signs were fine.

They said it does that because the blood vessel that was pinched causing the migraine was linked to stuff on the left side of my body. That being said, said vessel is on the right side of my brain which controls the left side. That leads to Left hand numbness and left tongue numbness. Complex migraine.

Bailey is asking if you can take him and the trike on some more hill repeats. He likes hills.

Holy shlit. You take care of yourself, you hear me? :thumb:

Lol, okay. I'm in the best shape of my life now though, which is great.

Is he a Mets fan? That's a factor.

Hey coasting, our travel itinerary includes a rather unfortunate 7 hour layover @ Heathrow on August 17. Should I have a Pcad Book Signing for my UK Fans?

Oh wait, I don't have a book.

Oh god no.

You have time, get started. My birthday is August 17 :thumb:
