Thanks, Inzil. I've been a lurker for months because of my health; my doctor put me on a statin drug in June of last year, and though it was a low dose, it built up in my system like things tend to do. Around Christmas, I thought I was irritating the tendinitis in my right arm and shoulder from too much typing, but it persisted for months, and eventually started to spread into places it didn't belong — and I was getting more and more exhausted. The pain was horrific, and nothing helped it, not Physical therapy, not even the strongest narcotic painkillers. On the first day of this June, the date on which my father died, I suddenly remembered what had killed him: heart failure caused by kidney failure that had been caused by him taking a statin drug. I went off it immediately, and the arm started to improve within a few days, with no other medical intervention. It's almost back to normal now, though my energy isn't, but I figure it took time to get real bad, it'll take time to get better. Sigh. But it's a happy birthday, because I'm still alive when I might not have been, or might've been in far worse shape if I hadn't taken things into my own hands. The only bad thing today is the heat and humidity, which is the worst it's been in well over ten years. But I have AC, so I am grateful!

I've heard similar stories about statins, but I'm glad to hear you're doing better, Ibrin. Your insights have been sorely missed.

Happy Birthday Ibri! I am sorry you have had a difficult time. I have learnt the past year that health is a house of cards ..disturb one thing at your peril... I wish you better things for the coming year - and this article may interest you http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/he...t-old-age.html

Belated happy birthday Brinn, Pitch, Lauri, Gwath, The Barrow Wight, Glirdy and Ibrin! (I don't know... go away for a couple of weeks, and people start having birthdays all over the place...)
And congratulations to Legate on completing his first quarter-century!

Thanks for the birthday wishes, Zil and Nerwen! I must say, passing the milestone of quarter a century with the perspective of being a 'Downer is quite a nice feeling.
And now, a very, very happy birthday to Miggy, as always, hope you had a great day!!! (And belatedly I'd like to wish at least in thought to all whose I have missed... as it happens especially always in summer.)

Ouch! Missed alot of birthdays during my absence!
Belated congratulations to Gwath, Dury, Glirdy (sending you pie up north!), Wilwa (and some muffins too!), Perky (where are you?), Ibrinidhilpathanezel (may your name only get longer in Entish terms, and may Treebeard add many good things to it!), Legate (may your riddles only get more and more cryptic!), and last but not least The Mighty Guard of the Citdel!

Same here. Belated best wishes to wilwa, Ibrin, Leggy and Miggy - and (probably too early in your time-zone, but lest I forget it) Happy Birthday Dimturiel!

A very happy birthday to Roa and also to Urwen, two members who can hardly be overlooked, even though lately they both haven't been very active... Who would have thought of them having so much in common if it wasn't for this birthday-coincidence?
