Thread: A not so funny thing that happened last weekend.

On Saturday I arose, did the morning rituals which include taking meds and feeding the varmints, among other things I won’t go into. I fed the cat, then knelt down to put my min pin on a cable so she can do her business. When I tried to get back up my right leg wouldn’t cooperate. I didn’t think too much about it. Later we went through the same procedure, and my leg still wasn’t cooperating. I went outside to look at possible antenna locations. While outside I became so dizzy I could barely stand up.

On Sunday and Monday that calf felt as if it had been twisted, the muscles hurt so bad I couldn’t walk. My home health nurse came by that afternoon and she was concerned enough that she informed my Dr.

Yesterday was my three month check up. The Dr questioned me about what had happened. His opinion is that if had a small TIA stroke. He says if it happens again I’ll have to have a MRI done of my brain.

The reall kicker? It happened on my 55th birthday!
