Health Update (I had my MRI)

So I had my MRI today. Not that back but not the same as last time. The last MRI I had done was of my knee. I was think of Dr Green from ER the whole time...sad. I kept my eyes closed most of the time. They did injected my we dye for the last 2 test. Next week is my EEG..

Today I didn't have the same type of seizure but I backout. I felt really "not myself" I laid down and was I think awake....next I was talking to DH and zoning out, felt really weird and had a hard time talking, DH kept asking what is wrong. It's very hard to explain. I have to call the Nero in the morning and tell her about it. It really crazy.

Re: Health Update (I had my MRI)

  • Oh no.. I haven't kept up with the posts.. I just wanted to say I hope you're ok and I hope they find out what's happening...
  • and they are POSITIVE Mel that you aren't having mini strokes?!

    ((hugs honey)

    just let me know if you need help with Maya or anythign!

  • That's really scary!  Please keep us updated when you get your results back.  I'm hoping for you that everything comes back alright or that they find out whats causing your problems is *very* easily correctable.
  • Hey nicole, not sure but just read about them...well Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA), I am going to bring it up. Thanks!
  • Symptoms of a TIA come on suddenly.

    • One side of your body may feel numb, tingly, or heavy.  "yes"
    • You may not be able to move your arm, your leg, or your face on one side of your body.  "yes"
    • Things may look blurry or dim. You may have double vision or not be able to see.  "yes"
    • It may be hard to speak. You may slur or mix up your words. "yes"
    • It may be hard to understand words.
    • You may feel unsteady, dizzy, or clumsy. You may have trouble walking "yes"
  • I worked with a girl that had a stroke right in front of me and we didn't know that is what was going on..... after it was diagnosed as a mini sttroke we knew what signs to look out for and she had several more with int he following few months. She's recovered fully from them...... but everything you keep telling me...that's all I keep thinking about. 

    Keep me posted and like I said if you guys need help with Maya in anyway or the dog , let me know. I can take her overnight if need be as well. 

    xoxoxo
     

  • Sounds like TIA to me, but they should also rule out other problems like lyme disease etc. Good luck with all this. It must be scary
  • Very Scarey!!!  I hope you get some answers soon!!! Thinking of you!
  • This is all so scary, Mel. I really hope they can figure out what is going on!

    :::HUGS:::
  • Mel, I just read your email.  I'm so sorry!  Hope the MRI helps to pin down the problem so the next step will be the road to recovery!  If you need anything let me know. 
  • Sending Hugs and postitive vibes to you!!! I hope eveything turns our fine....
