Thanks to Moze for listening and responding to my texts.
Thanks to all my friends here with well wishes.
He called me himself from the ER so I knew at least at that time he was upright and thinking like the math major I've always known. Told me about the experience. Told me about what they did (CATs, MRI, MRA, bloodwork, etc.).
Went to see him at the hospital in Sherman last night. Seemed normal to me there too in person. Looks good, has good color (at least normal color LOL), has strong grip, all symptoms seemingly gone, eyesight typical both eyes, no sensory difficulties....all signs point to OK with exception of his BP being high. He's 62 and 6' 0" 180-ish not too much overweight if at all. He has been doing more to take care of cholesterol and such and his diet and exercise is fairly good IMO for his age and having been officially retired for almost 16 years.
His mother had two big strokes before she passed in 07. A couple of her brothers had strokes too. His dad had a bad heart (from smoking) but his seems fine besides the BP.
Tonight I called my Mother to ask him a question (because I did not want to bother him if he was resting) and she told me that she got a call from someone where he had a teaching engagement that he was :barf: ing.... but on his way home with someone trailing to make sure he's OK. Dang it he needs to take a break.
Sorry if all the concern turns to be what sounds like a false alarm but with his family history of stroke it scared me even having talked to him. After all his tests the neurologist says it was not a stroke but possibly a XXX (sorry, some sort of acronym I don't remember). His logic head ain't pickin' up everything the Drs are puttin' down.
We'll see.
Thanks again. :)
Triple bypass?
Not that. I would remember that and he wouldn't be home yet.
good to hear nathan!!!! thankfully it wasnt anything too major...
nathan glad to hear it wasnt too major...I'll still be praying for him a speedy recovery.
Glad to hear he's doing as well as he is...keep us posted.
+1 Let us know how things go.
im glad to hear he's doing ok!
thats good dude just take care of em and spend as much time as you can with em and talk to em
it sux to remember someone
my bro passed away in 03
i wished i had a bit more time to be with him :(
Wow. These kinds of things are always scary.
I'm really glad to hear he's doing better. Your folks are good people. Please pass on best wishes for a speedy recovery from my family.
Thats great that he is doing better but you need to sit down with him and tell him to take it easy. Not a good track record with the family, but i guess its how that gen was. My dad is the same way. Had a hernia and the next weekend tried to do yard work by himself. Hope he comes comes out 100%.
Thanks K. I haven't had time to write emails to everyone. Gotta find out if he's still :puke: ing this AM.Quote:

"I’m home now. Neurologist said I definitely did NOT have a stroke! It could have been a pinched nerve in my arm although symptoms don't match nervy sensations in my face. I will see the neurologist later this month. Thank you for praying and thank you, God, that I didn't have a stroke."
Give em HELL!!!!!!! And im glad your gonna be around awhile to keep Nathan in line! LOL Now get to feelin better!
Nathan,
Good to hear your father is doing well and did not suffer a stoke. Be good to him and do not take him for granted. You seemed to have almost lost him and im sure things were running through your mind like what if... but you a chance to explore the what ifs now!! Hope you do! Best wishes to you both! God Bless!
