So, that shit is fun.

Started having some really cool and powerful deja-vu at work on Tuesday, then a strong ominous feeling set in and then started seeing small, flashing rainbow colored lights under the brim of my hat. Figured that it was either a premonition about an earthquake (like animals get) as Salt Lake City sits on a fault line, either that or I was hitting a major fatigue wall as I had been working long hours and had been hitting the gym pretty hard while not getting as much sleep as required in addition to cutting carbs from the diet. Anyway, I got a little freaked out, went to the bakery, grabbed a croissant and detoured it and everything kinda went back to normal.

Later on, started getting the deja-vu again (and it was super good shit - like I was seeing the future and shit - and it even had a soundtrack going along with it), and that's about all I can remember. Apparently I turned to the guy next to me, said something about tripping my balls off massively and told him I was going to puke, then my eyes rolled back into my head and I passed out and hit the floor like a sack of potatoes.

Came to with the EMT dude holding a ice pack to the back of my mellon on a huge goose egg. They were going to call an ambulance to take me to the ER and I told them it was nothing and I was fine. Fortunately the HR guy was standing there and convinced me to go to the ER. When I got there they did a CT scan to check for concussion probabilities.

Dude came back into the room with the radiologist and said "Um, bad news. There is a mass in the right side of your brain and we want to do an MRI for more detail."

"Well, shit."

So they did that and sure enough, there is a golf ball sized mass sitting there with a bunch of fluid around it. Nuerosurgeon (chief resident who looks like he's 17, comes in and says that they want to schedule surgery on Friday morning. Okies.

So, I'm sitting here in the Neurology wing of the University of Utah hospital (which is highly regarded) worrying about these guys going to the Utah/Michigan game tonight and coming back into surgery tomorrow hungover as shit.

Bonus is, I've had two really hot nurses in a row the past two nights. Tried to convince both to give me a leisure massage and body shampoo, but they didn't go for it though I had a girl from work come by last night to visit who wanted to give me a hummer.

Anyway, I'm feeling pretty fortunate that shit went down the way it did, because I most likely would have blown it off for ever until it became really bad. (Although, I am going to ask them if it's benign if they can just keep it in there because I was digging the deja-vu bordering on omnipotence.)

Also I hear that the chief neurosurgeon is totally old school and I think I saw him sharpening his hacksaw on a rusty pipe outside and telling the nurse that she should find his favorite spoon.

Good luck and best wishes.

Lost my step dad last year to a brain tumor. The VA finally, recently, did him and my mother right. Gave my mom $17k and a monthly stipend. 14 months later.

Any pics of this girl? I assume "wanted to give" means she didn't give and we need to be able to judge how bad of a decision you made.

She wanted to give you head? That's pretty twisted.

Hey man, so sorry to hear you are going through this. Glad they were able to catch it.

One awesome thing is that we live in a pretty good age for medicine...

about 2 months ago, my 2nd son was being born and there were some complications and the doctors amazed me with the technology and what they can do.

You're in good hands, and sounds like a pretty good state of mind.

Maybe when you are all patched up and well, and you come to the realization that you want to be a hippie and live your life in tie-die in a commune, and you are wandering around northern california (tripping but not from a brain tumor)....I can buy you a beer and give you a ride or a 20 spot.

Best of luck and thoughts/prayers going out your way.

Prayers up. One of my best friends had 2 separate surgeries to remove tumors in his brain -- neither one malignant. He is one of the most brilliant minds I know and those surgeries didn't harm his genius brain one iota.

Here is assuming your tumor is benign, and like him you will return to 100%. Sucks to have no hair for a while, but it is a small price to be back to normal.

Prayers for you.
