My Health issues continue. A few weeks ago I started showing signs of having a stroke. My left side became weak and useless, my speech started to slur and I couldn't walk. John took me to the hospital where I was getting worse, after a CT scan and an MRI they had decided I had no stroke damage and they think my symptoms are insulin based. It seems I was taking too much insulin but it wasn't showing on a daily basis, it was a slow build up that caused nerve damage that mimicked a stroke.
I'm in a rehab hospital now learning how to walk (at the moment I need a walker) my left arm has regained mobility but not fine motor control. My speech comes and goes I'm understandable but I sometimes have to think hard to make my self understood. I will probably be here a few more weeks for physical and occupational therapy I might be out before Yule.
I'm trying to remain positive but no one knows how much use I'll get from my left side and I'm worried that I'll be a huge burden on John, he already is burning the candle at both ends with the animals and visiting me, sometimes I'm more worried for him than for me.
