To be honest no one is sure exactly what happened. For a while some doctors claimed it was a psychiatric problem with me, which drove me NUTS, but now the general medical consensus is: something happened, we just don't know what. I've been through, let's see, four neurologists and I'm going to see a new one in a couple weeks. Doctors are like people in every other occupation, some are good and some aren't so good, it's just that with doctors the stakes are higher when they AREN'T good. If only there were more people in the medical profession who were more open-minded like Curtis...Anyway, in a nutshell, that's what happened.

And, in case you all are wondering, I'm expected to fully recover eventually.

Did you ever go to an Epstein Barr/Chronic Fatigue specialist? I had the some of the same symptoms years ago (disorientation, dizziness, etc.) and that's what I was diagnosed with. Took me a few years to kick that ****.
