Went in to talk to a neurologist about some possible short term memory loss caused by my accident last summer.
He was rather shocked that my doc had taken me off of anti-convulsant meds as quickly as he did and the lack of followup that had happend. He also insinuated that my accident should probably have been reported to the DMV resulting in the loss of my driver's license, but since there hadn't been any issues so far, he would kindly refrain from reporting it at this late date.
So, I got my first EEG today and will be getting a full Head MRI as soon as they can squeeze me in (which given UCDMC's load may be a while).

It's fun to watch a neurologist freak....

Seems that there is some neurologist-neurosurgeon methodological difference thing going on."if the city is visibly one of humankind's greatest achievements, its uncontrolled evolution also can lead to desecration of both nature and the human spirit."

During my brain MRI's, I've gotten to listen to reggae.

The neurologist who's clinic I participate in freaks regularly and yes, it is fun to watch.Monty Python's version of the cougar phenomenon:
"This is a frightened city. Over these houses, over these streets hangs a pall of fear. Fear of a new kind of violence which is terrorizing the city. Yes, gangs of old ladies attacking defenseless, fit young men".
