prayers needed

[wemple2]

Was thinking about you, Elaine, hope you got positive news at the doctor's today...Please let us know...What time was your appt? Maybe it's too personal to ask, but do you have any chronic health problems that may have contributed to TIA's? If so it's imperative that you take care of those issues, control them, so as not to let your health decline. Sometimes TIA's can be a blessing, a signal that there's something wrong and needs your attention...just don't ignore it...follow your medical advise, and I wish you a full and total recovery. Take care and I'm sending more prayers!!!

thank you ladies, and once again yt prayers worked....my dr doesnt think it was a mini stroke, but he said he doesnt want to rule it out since he didnt see me monday while these things were happening to me.....he looked over all the test results and said the only thing he is worried about is i have high colesterol...but he said keep taking 1 baby aspirin a day ...tomorrow i go for a coraded doppler of the arteries in my neck and the 29th a mri then see the dr again on the 31st to talk about those results. but he told me to live life like i did before, not take it easy all the time like ive been doing last few days. so good news I will say...i feel like a load off my mind....
thank you to all of you, i really appriciate your caring and praying.

Congrats on the good report. Now you can relax and not worry so much. I am really happy you got such good news.

Elaine, So far so good, I have had both the test your doctor has scheduled, the Carotid Doppler and MRI of the brain, thank goodness mine were both fine, and I pray the same for you. They are both very good test, and both noninvasive, so they don't hurt by any means. The MRI can be hard on someone with back problems or claustrophobia, make sure they make you comfortable before they get started and you'll do fine. Good luck, and best wishes!!! Be sure to let us know, how you're doing and how your test turn out.
