Day 112: When there's nothing left to burn...
Hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving. I don't really do the whole Thanksgiving thing myself; it's a long story but it stems from an incident involving a church boiler and too many potatoes. So there.
SO, after having a long sit down with my doctors, it seems like we've figured out why my immune system is falling apart. I won't bore you with the details, but it seems that we're dealing with intermittent acute porphyria. Oh boy! So now I'm part-robot, part-vampire, and all messed-up.
There's a lot of work to do, and I'm still kinda reeling from the blow, but we'll sort this all out later. The bullet-points are this:
-Reaction to infection puts my immune system in red alert
-Porphyric build-up damages nervous system and stomach
-Situation gets worse until can't digest anything
-Need fresh blood
So yep.
