Re: worried

Miss Worried: How old is your sister. There could be many reasons behind all of her problems. They will probably do MRI's to look inside her brain for tumors, etc. They'll do EEG's and Cat Scans. They'll probably put her on some meds. Depending on how old she is she might want to investigate hormonal reasons behind this. If she's near menopause it's very possible that could be the culprit. She could benefit from HRT. Read some more of my posts on these boards for more information. I'm short on time right now. I'll be back later.
