Ummm...accident or weight loss surgery?  (sorry, I 
haven't kept up much with the group) Sounds about
the way things went for my wife after her weight 
loss surgery.

Hi all,

Sorry I have been quiet lately, but life has gone from bad to worse lol

Bad news is I split up 2 weeks ago with my partner of 5 years. (she just 
so happened to ring me A while I was in hospital and B as the nurse was 
trying to get a cathaer in lol)

Good news is that we will still be friends, but I am moving to a house 
on my own, which is great as I can do what I want when I want (and I do 
not have to worry about kids touching my office :))

My phone should be on in the new place sometime Friday, so my server 
will not be down for more than a few hours.

I hope you are all well, apart from the bladder problems I am doing well 
(I am able to walk about 5 Km a day without getting tired (all in one 
go) so my fitness is improving and I have lost ~30Kgs in 2 months (23 
was done in 11 days of being unconcious in ICU lol))

Regards,

Kat (List Mom)

Actually I can claim to be very rare, only 2 other people in the world 
have reported the problem of Baclofen Toxicity, the drug Baclofen is 
primarily used to stop the shakes etc in Parkinsons sufferes, I was 
using it to stop muscle cramps from another drug I am on. For some 
reason it was not being removed from my system and built up to the level 
where my brain shut down, luckily I was found by my ex partner 
unconcious, but still shallow breathing, when I was in Resus, in the 
hospital my breathing finally stopped. luckliy my heart kept going, but 
it was touch and go for about 8 days where my heart kept stopping and 
then restarting on its own, my breathing was artifically halted after 
day 2 with drugs (the baclofen was removed from my system by 
haemodialisis) but I was badly fitting so they had to keep me heavily 
sedated and also kept me sedated so that the brain had most of the O2 in 
my system to carry over when my heart stopped for up to 30 seconds 
(after 30 seconds they were using CPR and a defibrilator)

It was rather scary for my family (and the stress killed my relationship 
with my then partner) but I was blissfully unaware

Luckily no lasting damage, and they predict I will have a full recovery 
in the next few months (liver is slowly repairing its self still)

Regards,

Kat.

Subject: [AVR-Chat] Hi all

Hi all,

Sorry I have been quiet lately, but life has gone from bad to worse lol

Bad news is I split up 2 weeks ago with my partner of 5 years. (she just so
happened to ring me A while I was in hospital and B as the nurse was trying
to get a cathaer in lol)

Good news is that we will still be friends, but I am moving to a house on my
own, which is great as I can do what I want when I want (and I do not have
to worry about kids touching my office :))

My phone should be on in the new place sometime Friday, so my server will
not be down for more than a few hours.

I hope you are all well, apart from the bladder problems I am doing well (I
am able to walk about 5 Km a day without getting tired (all in one
go) so my fitness is improving and I have lost ~30Kgs in 2 months (23 was
done in 11 days of being unconcious in ICU lol))

Regards,

Kat (List Mom)
