Comment on Rhabdomyolysis Update (And Lessons You Can Learn From What I Did Wrong) by Denise

I’m home after a hospital stay of 4 days with rhabdo. I’ve been told just to drink, drink, drink fluids. Does anyone know of anything else I could be doing?

Note that it should be two normal dashes in –ssh-options, not a html entity dash as is written on this page.

I copied/pasted the text from here and it took me an hour to realise that it is.

I had a similiar case, except the doctors couldn’t figure out the reason since I only did light exercises. I’m 15 and a guy btw and I went to the hospital with a ck level of 472,000. My parents drove me bcuz I felt like I was dying (until I slept in the ER) and the coke pee. I didn’t have any sitffness,swelling, or pain. Like I felt fine the entire time I was there. My ck’s dropped really quickly though. I was discharged with no kidney damage 4 days later! But I still have to see a kidney doc unfortunantely.

I am so glad you wrote about this experience. My son just came home from the hospital after a bout with rhabdomyolysis and alarmingly high CK levels. The doctors were stumped. He plays violin seriously and his bow arm swelled up after working out with weights. He’s down to 9000 now and we hope dropping.

Hi. Similar story with me last week. ck 90000.

Going for a EMG with neurologist today, at my request.

I don’t know what to think, just starting to google about this stuff.

Comment on OS X Docs are Wrong; How To Run Periodic Maintenance by Lisa Spangenberg

The very first command I learned to use in Terminal, before OS X was actually released was

sudo periodic daily

weekly
monthly

Comment on Two Not-Highly-Recommended Books by charles

charles — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 20:59:49 +0000

“The Mythical Man-Month” is thirty-four years old, and people still recommend it and read it. Of course many of the details are out of date. But Brooks’ observations are not, and time has shown most of them to be fundamental. It remains to be seen how “Joel on Software” will hold up.

He seemed to take it to heart. I don’t have permission to post his e-mails, but both his original question and his response to my answer seemed sincere and thoughtful (and quite funny in places).

As to Rands — yeah, he rocks. Even though I try to be a monotasker. I highly recommend his book, “Managing Humans” for anyone who, you know, does that.

Nice that your response was so thoughtful… Hopefully your not-to-be young apprentice will take it to heart.

I Like the Rands guy- I have NADD. Oh no. It has a name. I give everyone at work a headache when I drive the laptop. They only let me because I am so fast…

Hey Michelle, can I borrow your pet rattlesnake?

I need something to get the rat that lives in my ceiling. That bastard’s been keeping me up all night practicing his dance moves and the neighborhood cats can’t seem to do the job.

Sorry to hear about your flood schof, my shack is still holding on, for now anyway.

Comment on One-Year Weight-Loss Anniversary by schof

I put on some weight over the holidays — got up to 230 pounds. (Yoyo is bad. Bad Schof.) Just lost that 20 pounds from January 1 to February 1, and I’m back to 211. Aiming for another 20 in February. (Though I’m not sure if that’s really practical.)

geez- to think that I thought having rattlesnakes in the house was a bummer… So the question that comes to mind…moving?

Sorry to hear about the water damage… I was wondering how the rains were treating you, but that’s pretty trippy. Hope you’re covered with some sort of insurance or didn’t suffer much loss. (We just got through with dealing with some flooding of our own, but that was due to the upstairs neighbors doing some illegal plumbing, DeNiro-in-Brazil style.)

Our sole adventure with the rains so far was my wife’s car hitting a huge rock in Malibu Canyon and getting a flat… got towed out within about an hour but that’s not a fun place to be at 9:30PM with rain and bad visibility.

But, yeah, beats the fires.

Wow, Brett. That sounds WAY worse than my situation. I’m just wet and dirty, your sand cliff sounds a little scary. Still, you’re right. At least we don’t have to worry about fires for a bit.

Brett — Sat, 05 Jan 2008 16:19:28 +0000

Wow, good luck with that.

My hippie shack is built between an unstable sand hillside above and a unstable sand cliff below. When I came home this morning the hillside above came down on top of it, it’s not buried but looks like it could be if things get wetter.

All in all it’s a nice change from worrying about fires…

Thanks to everyone who wrote in or commented with their thanks! It was a lot of work, but I enjoyed doing it — and it was a hell of a lot better than just sitting back and watching things burn on TV.

I’ll take payment in beer, at Froggies or Abuelita’s. {grin}
