do you ever have a day you don't remember?

Hosta, I hope that you are feeling better and this never happens to you again. Your family must have been very frightened. I also live in the Maryland/Pennsylvania area and the last 3 weeks the heat and humidity here has been brutal. I know myself I don't feel well in all this heat, even inside with the air conditioner going. Plesse try to find a way to have some medical tests done. If it is blood pressure a very inexpensive pill can get that taken care of in most cases. It is so sad that in this country where so many have so much, that a person has to go without medical care and tests that they need. We need change in this country very badly. Good luck and please take care of yourself.

Go to the doctor. Six years ago I was watching a movie on TV and my grand son was on my computer and when movie was over I felt funny and told my grandson to "catch me if I fall] I knew something was wrong. I headed for the bathroom and on the way hollered at my husband who was in living room to take me to hospital that something wasn't quite right to make story short I had a TIA. I guess one thing I am a retired nurse so I new to get to hospital immediately when things don't "add up" Time makes a difference. I still have times of short member but if I stopped and think it comes back to me.

I've had a day like that when I had my stroke in 2006. Dr said I probably had been having small strokes for awhile and just didn't realize it. Please be careful and take care of yourself. Hugs... :lol: :) :D

My sister had something similar to what you had, but it didn't last as long. She went to the doctor and got checked out, everything was ok. Doctor told her that sometimes people have brain farts and figured that is what she had.

My daughter had an episode while at the grocery store years ago and couldn't do math or talk right. Went to the ER and they diagnosed it as migraine. I didn't believe it and insisted she get a follow up. After hours at the hosp the next day they too said migraine. A girl my sister worked with would forget where she lived and how to call when she had her migraines. But 3 days is what makes it so worrisome. Good luck and hopefully you won't have it again. Take care.
