I have familial multiple lipomatosis (or FML, :) ).  It kicked in about a year ago and now I have about a dozen tumors from my feet to my arms (that I know about).  I'm thinking I'll get some cut out sometime soon.  It's not (generally) anything serious, but it's annoying as hell.  I've looking into ways to avoid getting these things and there's basically nothing out there.  I'll probably be stuck with them for my whole life.

Oh man suck.

Update on mine- Today my vision is much better. Fuzzy ring is still there but less defined and things are clearer in general. The difference in size has lessened as well.

I have an appointment at the eye doc for next week either way.

Just got back from ophthalmologist.

Serous central retinopathy

Fuck yeah. And it's on the mend yo. So I just have to keep my fucking stress level down and I'm good.

Now I just have to wait a few hours because my eyes are dilated to about ten feet wide and everything glows.

I can't even tell ya. Dude couldn't even see it through the lens thingy so he put me onto this machine that blasted my eye with a really bright red square for a minute or so and showed me the topography of the back of my eye. Was a 3d model that he could rotate around and shit. He was all like "Yep, there it is, looks like a Hershey's Kiss. Barely there." Then he tells me to just keep chill and try not to stress and I shouldn't have a repeat event.

We aren't married. Been together 8 yrs and both have our own homes and like it that way, at least for now.

She's at home doing laundry.

Nice

Two working eyes are good to have. Everything changes without em, especially in your line of work.

Xanax helps me.

Besides, weed just makes me useless for two or three hours. I can't get anything done with that shit. Same reason I don't drink.
