Good Morning!
I am home from the hospital. The MRI came back no stroke, bleeding, or tumors… God is good. The thought is that headaches/dizziness are from arthritis in my neck/possibly migraines/my stuffy sinus, or my blood pressure medication. The good news is I HAVE A WORKING BRAIN! While there, they got a bit excited about this old heart of mine and how it beats so slowly and then speeds up so quickly. Will do follow-up in January in Sparta with my PC. Meanwhile, when I was there, they applied massaging wraps from my ankles to my knees to prevent blood clots. I want one of those machines. They are amazing! Wishing I could have tried it from ankle to hip because the fluid swelling in my lower legs is gone. Will be checking into that. The only med I left with was a motion sickness one to help until I have my follow-up in January. They thought a shower chair would be good, and a walker when I’m alone and unsteady on my feet. This will change the way I spend my days. No driving while dizzy. The numbness in my face is still unexplained and has lessened. Thank you for your concerns, prayers, and phone calls. I have an amazing circle of friends and family.
Now I need you to put PJS on your prayer list. He’s going through a rough time right now and needs prayers for discernment and healing. Also, just put in a suggestion that if it is God’s will, he should think about writing a book speaking about his life experiences. They have been extensive. Regardless… prayers for his well-being please.
Know you are prayed for.
