Welcome to the club. Collect your stake proof vest over there and there's type O negative on tap at the bar.

Band, blood type, or both?

Well, both natural light and fluorescent lights give me headaches, plus I'm easily susceptible to sun poisoning.. so yeah..

Interesting news Count Verilon.

On another note is it normal to get a craving for blood, I've had this a lot recently, anyone?

Well, now it's time for you to get a leather trench coat and wear hooded track suit tops outside

Sesame Street has a character named Bert. He acts like Bert. Towards my favorite character Ernie. That is why I never liked Sesame Street.

My Naproxen says to avoid long exposure to the sun, and my optometrist said that I should be careful about being int he sun because of my eyes, or else I HAVE TO get sunglasses. So basically, I've been told I should be a vampire.

Anyone else have doctors tell you to do something that already fits in with some of your everday quirks?

Sure, my medication says to be careful about exposure to sunlight. It tends to cause me to burn instead of tan.

Luckilly I work nights so for most of the winter I don't see the sun at all and in the summer I only see it briefly in the morning.

Also, I've been warned that people with blue eyes tend to get cataracts easier than people with darker colored eyes so I have the UV protection and the automatic darkening thing on my glasses. For as little as I'm out in the sun it's nice not to have to fiddle around looking for my sunglasses. Plus, perscription sunglasses usually blow.

Well, I have to get scrip glasses because I've got astigmatism in both eyes, but that IS getting better. I just need to go out and get sunglasses, is all. The doctor told me I needed to get tinit in my regular glasses, though.

[EDIT] Those glasses, by the way, I only have to wear outside or while on the comp until I get sunglasses.. then I only have to wear them while on the comp. ^^;

The UV filters are supposed to help with eyestrain associated with computers and being under flourescent lights as well as helping with the UV from the sun.

Been on all sorts like tetracycline, but recently he had a blood test to determine if he was eligible to use a newer and more powerful antibiotic called Roaccutane. Other than mood swings and redness of the skin, it is advised that the patient stay out of direct sunlight where possible. Luckily summer is over now, back to bleak ol' stereotypical England.

Antibiotics are for wimps.

I'm on Accutane! Live for the Liver Poison!

I stay inside most of the time and I'm very pale, but I also have another vampiric quality no one else has mentioned: a disdain for humanity and my sense of obvious superiority to it.
