gloom and doom

[ramtops]

thanks to flickgc, I now know what I'm suffering from after three rather unpleasant insect bites at the weekend.

You have West Nile How you get it: Mosquito bite, organ transplant Incubation period: 3 to 15 days Early symptoms: Headache, irritability, fatigue, rash Symptoms at full disease onset: Confusion, swelling of the brain, tremors and weakness Final outcome of this horrible disease: Encephalitis and meningitis are the most deadly features of this malady. Brain swelling causes convulsions and cognitive failure. Swelling of other nervous tissues cause muscular degeneration and severe pain. Either way, the outcome is coma and eventual death. There is nothing you can do now but wait for death to arrive and hope it comes quickly. Make your peace. get your own internet diagnosis

wonder how long it'll take to kill me ...

About 40 years or so, at a guess. Carpe Diem.
