Dude,

depending on hou you look at it, you're either "healed" or "screwed." Little bit of both I might say.

My mood is stable, but I'm worried about the side effects. I feel stiff, clumsy when moving around, somewhat shaky, but what I find most frustrating is that at times I experience difficulty finding words while speaking, and feel overall confused.
