It's time to play...

What's My Affliction?


In the venerated spirit of DIY health care, a family tradition of self-mis-diagnosis, and a personal history of vague symptomology and hypochondria, I put it to you, the lay reader, to consider the evidence below and offer your [thoughtfully considered] suggestions re: what's wrong with me lately.

Symptoms:

  • Low back pain
  • Rest of back pain
  • Migrating neuralgia
  • Sloth
  • Cupcake cravings
  • Sinusitis and accompanying headaches
  • Hurty muscles
  • Sleep disturbances
  • Fluctuations in blood pressure
  • Occasional vertigo
  • Itchy legs
  • Difficulty relaxing
  • Lethargy
  • Pain in butt
  • Poor and/or intermittent mental focus
  • "Funny" feeling in lower abdomens
  • Moments of confusion and short-term memory lapse
  • Numbness and tingling
  • Clumsiness
  • Questionable decision-making
  • Bloating
  • Gas

  • Did I mention constipation?

    Note: While all or most of these conditions could be understood as afflictions in themselves, in keeping with a holistic attitude toward disease, I urge you to interpret these as symptoms of a more pervasive, all-encompassing set of disorders.

    Thank You, and Good Luck!

    As a renowned brain surgeon (this one's gratis), you are either in love or have diptheria. Both afflictions have similar side effects.

    The cupake cravings however are inexplicable. These have never been observed in mice nor men.

    Well, as I am neither a mouse nor a mens, I guess everything's ok re: the cupcakes.

    I disagree; I don't think those symptoms could be caused by an anal lick fest.

    Kurt: you just haven't been to the right Anal Lick Fest.

    It could be that your back isn't receiving adequate support. Try moving and flipping your mattress more often, or placing a pillow between your knees, or if your mattress is very old simply buying a new one.

    Itching and bloating could be due to mild food allergy to something. The most common foods to cause allergy are eggs, wheat, soy, dairy products, corn and anything starchy, like potatoes.

    If you really don't want to see a doctor about this, why don't you try posting this question on Dr. Weill's health forum? There are usually people more than willing to give out advice.
