Oversharing on the internet

I feel weird about giving medical updates on tumblr, but I’m not talking about it anywhere else, and some of you guys seem to care, so…

I went to the doctor yesterday. He was like, (and I’m paraphrasing here), “Dude, you had a seizure. I want to you stop driving.” 

And I was all, “Uh… no. I need to go to work and whatnot.”

And he was like, “Okay, I get that, homie. But here’s the deal. You need to go see a neurologist, like, right now.”

And I was all, “Okay. Well, hook a brotha up with an appointment.”

And he was like, “Dude, I will call my neuro boy right now.”

Then later he was all, “They’re booked up ‘til November, but I’m gonna get you in sooner. I’ll give yo’ ass a call tomorrow and let you know what’s up.”

And I was like, “Shhiiiiit, son. Word.”

So I’m waiting for him to call and let me know if/when I can get into the neurologist. Until then, I’m going to a dentist appointment and then to work. Yes, I know… but daddy’s gotta make money. I honestly think the entire episode was a fluke brought on by a handful of factors (what I ate that day, lack of sleep, etc). 

I’ll keep you updated. Besides, it gives me something to talk about on tumblr.

  8. raiselm said: When I first read about it, I thought you might have had a seizure. I have a seizure disorder and take medication every night. I haven’t had a seizure in 8 years. Get a good doctor and avoid strobe lights (discos and arcades). You’ll be fine.
