Re: The Vent Thread
@Aimo,
Grades don't necessarily reflect your skills or your hard work! There's also the issue of personal motivation. From what I've heard from you, you've been feeling like computer science isn't your thing afterall, right? It's only natural that if you need force yourself to study every time your grades will drop. Maybe you can turn this around and take it as a sign that this field doesn't really suit you nor does it really bring forth your potential?
And it's totally OK to let yourself break down and cry. It's also OK to argue with your family and refuse to feel guilty for putting your own issues in the first priority when you just need that. It's not right for your parents to put your care towards them on a test like that. They should give you some room when you need it.
As for the uncertainty about your future, that one I'm afraid I have nothing to say about. I can merely sympathize since I'm always anxious about my future as well. Perhaps, instead of trying to make concrete plans for the future, you could try to think about the things you already have? Not to remind yourself that you should be grateful for those things (that's a recipe for self-blame) but to provide yourself some sense of comfort? For example you're not going to get kicked out of your home right after you graduate, no?
I had no idea since you're always so cheerful on skype. I should have asked! Take care

Yeah I know, there are actually quite a lot of classic movies I haven't seen. Oh.. oh you mean... oh of course, right.aesling wrote:Holy shit, what!?!
Haha no... I'm trying not to get ahead of things and not to worry. The MRIs simply show signs that I have MS. Brain lesions that weren't illuminating on the scans or something like that, it was kinda hard to absorb information over the phone, safe to say I was (am?) a little shocked.
The spinal tap itself doesn't bother me nearly as much as it should, someone shoving a needle between two of my vertebrae to extract fluid from my spine... it's entertaining the possibility I have developed a chronic incurable progressive brain disease at the ripe old age of 25 that is getting to me.

Re: The Vent Thread
Pain. And lots of it, totally out of nowhere.
I felt totally awesome all day yesterday until we were just about to leave the grocery store later that evening. Then sharp pain in my lower back on the left side. Shrugged it off, got home, took some tylenol and made dinner. All the while, the pain hung around while nausea kicked in. Took more tylenol, nothing. Went to bed early in an attempt to sleep it off.
Woke up feeling ok, shortly after my shower the pain comes back. Now the feelings of nausea are like, rolling through me. Feel crappy but ok-ish one moment, want to vomit the next, starts to go away, comes back. As long as I don't move at all in any way, shape, or form, the back pain seems to go away a bit but not by much.
Now to make it through a 10 hour shift and hope this shit goes away on it's own. Leerrrrrroooooooooooooooooyyyyyy....
Fucking annoying as all hell.

Re: The Vent Thread
Actual back pain, or does it feel more internal? Like in your kidneys or something? I only ask because those were my first symptoms of what I had.Radical_Yue wrote:Pain. And lots of it, totally out of nowhere.

Back to the thread now. So... grandmother died 4 days ago. She was in great pain on her last week so, I'm kinda happy she passed away in the end. Anyway... my mother, who knows that I can edit some sweet videos, promised my grandfather I would make a video with photos of them, memories etc... Yeah, as if it wasn't so hard till now. Thanks, mom.

Re: The Vent Thread
To be honest, I'm terrible at describing pain but I suppose it could have been internal-ish. It wasn't like a normal soreness... I don't think it was kidneys since it spread up my back.BasharOfTheAges wrote: Actual back pain, or does it feel more internal? Like in your kidneys or something?

It went away for a bit earlier today around 11am or so but came back after I ate lunch. I've taken more tylenol due to the back pain (now it's in my upper/middle back) and I've started to get dizzy with slightly blurred vision.
I don't plan on going to the doctor so hopefully this will go away soon. Until then I'm going to try and take it easy.
