Update on me

I saw the neurologist this morning.  Nothing immediate was resolved.  They are going to run further blood tests and want another MRI (pending insurance
approval).  He is fairly certain it was a mild stroke that happened.  He totally ruled out nutritional deficiencies.

The good news is he is positive it will get better with time.  The further tests are to try to discover what caused it and if we can prevent it from
happening again.

I have noticed some very very slight improvement and it has never gotten worse.

Thank you everyone for your encouraging words.

I'm sorry he wasn't able to give you a definitive answer.  I am glad you're noticing some improvement, even very, very slight and that the doctor says it will get better.  Thanks for the update, I was wondering how you are doing!

I can do this, I can do this, I can do this - AND SO CAN YOU!!

Paul,
It is really tough to handle when they can not give you a definitive answer.  I hope they can help you prevent this from happening again.

Huh...  a mild stroke?  Well, TG it was mild!!!  I hope you feel a little better every day, until the day you feel BETTER than you did before things went south!!

(I hate to think what this could have been like for you if you were still 200+ pounds heavier!!  )

Love you, Paul...
