Re: scary morning! /

[Guest guest]

Hi , Thanks for your sharing and advice/support. I was told by my boss not to come in for the last two days. "take care of yourself" he said. however because it is a part time job I wont get paid for the time off. My Mom , who lives in NC (I live in CT) said she will send me some money to cover the days lost. I'm very greatful for that! I'm starting to feel alittle better, but still a little loopy. I called the Neuro and they couldn't get me in any faster, because it will be the first time I will be seeing him ! I had to change Neuro's since I got on State Medical, But my former Neoro was notified by the hospital, and he was very helpful, can't afford to see him but he gave them and I great advice and offered to see me (but can't afford it ) Thanks again! I'm glad your persistince with the dentist paid off. Peace, candace Trimm wrote:

Ohhh sweety be careful, I get low BS all the time and like you I've done stunts like that. Call your neuro and see if he can see you sooner, if necessary, get pushy with the nurse. The nurse controls the scheduling, not the appt desk so if you are having a problem that bad she can put you in. That dentist office was going to make my baby girl wait 3 weeks until I got ahold of the right person and got the same day. ' in Texasccalverlori <ccalverlori> wrote: Hello every one! I justwanted to share my scary experience that happened this morning: for tjhe last 3 days I have had numbness on my left side, but this morning it ws 10 times worse and I was in a complete fogg; forgot breakfast (brush in my hand, not quite knowing what to do with it and stuff like that). It was my second day back to work. I left the house still in a fog and hurting. I drove in a stupor and as I was getting off the exit, I completly had no idea where I was, nothingf was familiar, I could have been in Germany for all I knew. I couldn't recognise anything. I started to panic, I knew I was going to work, but did not know how to get there. I pulled imto thte first parking lot I saw, which was a restrant and was empty. I was in full panic mode and crying and then I

remembered I had a cell phome and new my boss's number was on there ( thank God for cell phones!) I called him and told him what was happening, he told me to look around for aname of the restraunt, I found it and he knew exactly where I was. He told me that he would coime get me as soon as another employee came in, at which time a state trooper came in the parking lot. my boss told me to ask him for help and call him back. I did and he couldn't understand what I was trying to tell him, because I was scared and crying and I couldn't get my words out right. I told him I had MS and did not recognise anything and that I think I was having a "mis-fire" I thought he was going to pull his gun out at that point LOL! however he asked me what that meant, I tried to explain it to the best of little ability at that point. he called an ambulance and checked me for a possible stroke (not!) he asked if I had problems with my vision. I have glasses on and

can't see out of one eye! ya think! in the ambulance they checked my blood besides other vitals. My blood sugar was 44! itshould be around 177. when I was at the hospital, after the gluclose and food, they bought it up to 144. The Doctor said that I had hypoglycemia, which I knew and I told usually I will feel light headed and on the verge of passinf out but never experienced this, he stated because of all the scarring , my neurotransmitters sent a signal to my memory instead (mis-fire!!) and caused another exacerbation. MRI and (x-rays?) He did not order a tx because I will be seeing my neuro soon and he is not one so I have to wait till I see the new Doc. meanwhile the damage is already done! He released me and told me not to drive or be alone for 24 hours. My friends from work picked me up and brought me to the restraunt where my car was. one drove my car home for me and the other bbrought me home. they stayed for as

long as poss. and my son will be here tonight or very soon since I started this email at around 4pm and it is now 6:52pm. I,m very scared about this whole new experience. has anyone else experinced this before. I have been driving a couple of times and I did not recognise where I was, but it has only lasted a few seconds, nothing as serious as this though. thanks for letting me share, you are the only people who really understand and I appreciate you all ever so much! I probably won't be on typing for a while, but will check in. when my son gets here I'm going to bed, been a rough one today! so if I do'nt get the chance, I wish you all a blessed and safe Holiday now. peace & love, Candace ' in Texas Courage is not being fearless, courage is facing your fears and not running for cover!
