Be nice.

Mine was a bleed, as I stated earlier.

Slow down. Keep yourself in good nick. It's critical.
Thanks, that's the feedback I was looking for, I've already had one (hemorrhage variety) due to a TBI near infancy but travel a lot for work, work insane hours am constantly under excessive stress with a GAD diagnosis. I need to slow it down.

I didn't get my PAF yet, reliving me of duty.

Who wants that v10???

No-bodies at the bar need know about the positive results just yet. . . long as you still have a bit of a limp to snare them.

Stop. Take a hard stop and reassess.

I felt great, looked great and didn't skip a beat in any activity. Keep in mind 2 weeks before the event, I loaded 200+ bales of hay on the trailer in less than 1.5 hrs. At 60# per bale, it's no joke.

Besides the HTN readings, I had no other warning. One of my best friends just had high readings and the doctor wants to engage watchful waiting. I told him to fire the doctor, go to another internist and get pharmalogical treatment.

I would tell anyone the same. I'm incredibly lucky and blessed in my recovery. I will get back to normal. Most aren't so lucky.

MKSixer, excellent news to hear that you're recovering fast after gotten MIA. Get back soon after this 'Big Reset'.

Sounds like a DNF due to some engine shutdown gremlin after a system overload.

But according to Lisa Belgetti, the intriguing blonde down at the hospital authorized to toy with your BIOS settings and also capable of 'turning your software into hardware', the "MKSixer 2.0 Upgrade Program" has been uploaded into your system to fix the gremlin: "We can rebuild him. We have the technology. We can make him better than he was. Better...stronger...faster", she confided with a glint in her eyes whilst beaming a mischievous smile.

System reboot and upgrade install currently processing for 'A New Dawn'.
Shine on you crazy diamond.

You raise an interesting point - when they were rebuilding him do you think they had some fun with his settings and changed his allegiance to certain drivers?

MK - do you really like verstappen? Is he the greatest?

Can you check in and see if he's still doing ok - it's been a while.

I reached out to him quite some time ago (just checked: exactly 2 years ago).

His response sounded to me that he was back on track.
