MADDOG, that is very scary. It is good that you went to the ER. What can be done for it?

I hope it does not happen again.

They wanted to send me to the hospital for more test but I will see my family doctor tomorrow.

Thinks it may be a plugged carotid artery loosing
small chunks.

They want me to have a caratid artery scan. But they never called me with the appointment time yet.

Yes, I am to take one large aspirin each morning.

I wonder if it is the Babeseosis causing blood cells to stick together.

I am half scared to do anything like going hunting or out in my kayak fishing.

I had been hunting the day it happened, I was on my way back from the woods when the stroke hit.

I did get way excited after nailing my first coyote. And I was trying to get down into a canyon to fetch it.

Doggy fetching a song dog.

Just do what the doctors say and try to relax. I know people do get those and it may not happen again for a long time. I hope it won't!

Insurance company refused to pay for the test after I drove in to town.

I said FINE tell them they can pay the bills after I have a major stroke.

They are still talking to the ins company.

I need to see the coo payment amount then I will decide what to do.

DEATH IS BETTER THAN MED. BILLS !!!!
