Now in the 2% group

Docs reviewed brain scan and found an area of concern where the temporal lobe sends information to a "drain pipe" looking hole where signals are sent to my spine. They measured the opening before and after surgery. The opening was 0.083 cm and now, in the interest of making sure it doesn't close and cause a siezure, I'm on 1,000 mg per day of Levetiracetam.

They say that I am a medical "oddity" and my case should be in a book.

They've more or less medically retired me and I'm already recieving my retirement check every month. More later.

I've moved from 95% die within 2 to 12 months, to 5% survive more than 15 months and then 2% live a long life.
