where's the heat? -Frying my Brain?

    Oh super, I've been commuting in my car and as long as I can remember I
could smell a little coolant sweetness.  Only until about a month ago did a
visible coolant loss occur.  I have had some odd health problems as of late
and maybe this is the cause, hope not.  Occasionally I get headaches, vision
hasn't been 100% for a week or so, weepy eyes usually associated with
allergies, and my left upper thigh has been numb for a week, though the
thigh is most likely related to sleeping in a really odd position that
pinched a nerve after the final college Christmas party, whoops.  I haven't
experienced any memory loss, dizziness, though occasionally I do feel a bit
"drugged out."  I always account for the drugged out feeling as a side
effect of high school and my freshman year of college, another big whoops.
    Well when I turn the heat off completely it must seal the heater core
off entirely, because I smell nothing.  When I have the heat on lately I can
smell it just a little constantly.  I have been keeping the heat off, but
the past two times I've used the car my Aunt has turned the heat on, maybe
why I have been feeling a bit off possibly.  I'll get that new heater core
in ASAP!

Thanks,
