Bad morning ends with good afternoon...
To those who think I am nothing but a font of negativism...

S.O. had three dizzy episodes accompanied with falling this morning, starting at about 4:30 AM. I spent the day in urgent care, following ambulance to hosptial with neurological center, and at this time can report, that although no one can explain the episodes at this point it seems not to have been a stroke (Her mom died of one at 55, S.O. is 57 and this is one of her great fears.)

Thankfully, both of us are now back at home, and its my bed time.
I'll read you all tomorrow...

3. Sounds Like a TIA
Transient ischemic attack, which can be the harbinger of a stroke.

Keep up the pressure on her healthcare providers to ensure that she gets all pertinent tests along with a comprehensive plan for preventing a full-blown cerebrovascular incident.

Best of luck in this venture.
