Ohhhhhh, Karson.

THAT’s one that I know a thing or two about.

May they find its cause, and get it under control.

It’s no fun … no fun at all.

Karson sounds like you suffered a transient ischemic attack or TIA for short. They are usually caused by a decrease in blood flow to an area in the brain. Sometimes a TIA is a precursor to something much more serious, a stroke. I’m glad that you are home and the symptoms have resolved. Another cause could have also been a spike in blood pressure. Keep up with the meds and mend quickly.

Wow, take care of yourself, we need all the good LJ’s we have.

Do what the docs say and be careful. My dad had a similar incident – double vision – he then blacked out and fell. He hit his head pretty hard and was hospitalized for quite a while – at 75+ it is a very dangerous and scary proposition. Be careful if you feel another similar spell…don’t get up quickly…and sit down if standing…My dad was taking coumadin I believe.

-- Woodworking.....My small slice of heaven!

Karson, glad to hear you are O.K. take it easy. Be good to yourself.

-- jack -- ...measure once, curse twice!

Glad to know you have recovered. Next time even at a slightest hint take medical help and don’t panic. Rest is the first medicine so take it. Do gentle deep breathing by alternate nostril for about 5 minutes. That will improve oxygen supply to the brain. Keep us informed about the condition of your health.

Stay safe.

Karson I had a colonoscopy several years ago – and woke up in the middle of it – Let me tell you, I caused double vision for me too :-)). Good luck and hope you get well soon, try sniffing some sawdust – that usually helps me.

Glad to hear your home.
Rest and get well.

-- Safety first because someone needs you.

I am glad to hear that you are going to be fine. And it is a good thing that you went to the hospital. While this was not apparently anything serious, too often we tend to put off going to the doctor/hospital in the hope that the problems that we are having will clear up rather than seeking immediate medical attention.

Keep us posted and try rest.

The first time I visitwed the united states I had bad double vision, and kept falling over when I turned too quickly. It turned out to be vertigo it lasted a few weeks and I felt dizzy all the time so I appreciate how nasty this is for you take care Alistair

Karson, I am so glad you are felling better. I was having some problem a few months ago with my sugar. I was felling light headed and tired all the time. I been eating better controling my sugar intake and trying to exercise. I see the doctor tuesday when he going to schedule me for carpal tunnel surgery.

Blood thinners- great to reduce clots, lousy if you’re around sharp things.
Glad to hear it cleared up. I would encourage you not to hesitate to go to ER if anything else presents…

-- ...there's a fix fer dat...

Karson-Good to hear your ok! Becareful with those blood clots man!
In Nov. of 2007 I went to the doctor because I had a simple cramp
in my leg I thought some muscle relaxers and a pain pill was all I needed.
hahahaha! Next thing I know my doctor rushed me to the ER and they
started hooking me up to all kinds of machines and giving me shots in the
stomach. Nine hours of ER and I finally stabilized and they put me in a room
for a week with a guy that snored like twelve grizzly bears.
Water pills, potassium, warfarin 6mg, bloodpressure pills, loritabs, and I don’t
remember how many other pills for the next six months and total bed rest.
Not a fun year for me at all! Thats how I learned to make jewelry I was going nuts
just laying in bed or sitting in a chair day in and day out. Anyway Blood clots are
scarey stuff man.
Take care of you!!!!!
