A mystery fencing illness...any ideas what it is?

I do like Seinfeld though, but then again, who doesn't?

I don't. It's not funny, and I also hate the slap bass...

I also somehow feel the idea of working out less and feeling better is something that a puritan ancestor will rise out of the grave to smite me for even thinking.

working a little less and making sure your feeling well is more important than pushing yourself too far if doesn't do you any good.

anything that would smite you for that needs a clap around the head... whether it's a puritan ancester or an evil Babylonian war God lol

I hope things go okay for you

Everybody Loves Raymond? Ugh. I do like Seinfeld though, but then again, who doesn't?

That would be me.

Have you eliminated salt issues? Without knowing your fluid intake strategy, the effects sound somewhat like Hyponatremia. Otherwise, I'd wonder about things like potassium levels or other mineral imbalances, followed by the previously mentioned neurological possibility.

What's this craziness? Going back to the actual topic of the thread? Madness. Sheer madness.

Actually a converstion with my pharmacist revealed that it might be related to something called Serotonin Syndrome - because I have been accidentally been given two different Serotonin boosters (the painkiller being a very strong one) - plus I was never told the whole "don't take these painkillers regularly because they can produce toxicity" - anyway, something to talk to my doctor about - until then, my pharmacist recommended I move to morphine - does that strike anyone as odd, "Hi, I love fencing, even if I need morphine to do it!"

Good to see you've talked to your pharmacist! You sound like you're well on your way to solving your problem.
