| Well, dang it... strokes suck!
Okay, so I wrote this long, detailed post about the serious fatigue I am experiencing and hit "post" and it is missing. That has been happening a lot to me lately. The words are missing, the typing the right letters is missing, the energy is missing, etc.
I am a week out from having 3 or 4 more small strokes, 50 years old, 3 or 4 strokes end of July and they figured out it is a kinked small artery in my right frontal lobe. 8 small strokes in about a month. Plavix and off I go. I am so exhausted and can't even explain how it feels. I have no physical limitations caused by my strokes with the exception of my left hand not typing the right letters, can't figure out how to spell simple words and shakey. I can walk, talk, sing, dance etc. Lucky, lucky and more lucky.
But...the exhaustion is horrible. My husband and daughter were joking yesterday saying I was turning into a vampire because I was so pale. The doctors ran every conceivable test know to man in the days I was hospitalized. The neurologist told me there isn't any more tests they can run. They even tested me for West Nile Virus, Lupis, MS, and much, much more. Weird autoimmune diseases and clotting disorders, etc.
Why did I feel like I was dying yesterday. Why was I white as a sheet and could barely sit up. Why was I so, so, so very tired? If anyone can help, I would appreciate it. Hope this post does the right thing and doesn't go missing.
