Sure glad he's back home now; too bad they haven't figured out a cause for this
yet.

He sent me a text saying that they might not keep him. He got blood work done,
a CT
scan of his brain, and found nothing. Now he’s getting a mri of his brain. He
said
they discussed the carotid arteries, but it doesn’t sound like they are going
to do
an ultrasound. His hand is still tingling, though. So, maybe if his phone
talks
while he’s in the MRI, they’ll figure out that maybe, just maybe that’s the
problem.
Grrrr! Duane couldn’t have a MRI, because of the metal in his body. But it
seems
that they could look at his carotid arteries in the MRI. If not, the medical
profession, especially in Michigan, will drive me nuts.

This time, it’s U of M Hospital in Ann Arbor. Tony had a MRI on Friday. Since
it
was to determine if there was heart issues, due to his blood pressure being so
low.
So of course, they only examined his heart. The results determined that there
was
fluid on his pericardium, but it was within the normal range, and no worries
there.
They did add contrast to the MRI, and it wasn’t suppose to hurt his kidneys.
So,
later Friday night, he experienced an episode which was similar to the seizures
he
has had in the past, mild in comparison. Nonetheless, he made up words to say,
he was
dizzy, and a general lack of personality. Then Saturday morning he woke up
with his
left hand tingling. He was drowsy like he is normally after a seizure, and went
to
bed early Saturday night. But on Sunday when I talked to him, his hand was
still
tingly and numb. So, we had a discussion about his carotid arteries. He has
never had
his arteries ultra sounded. So, Monday, they called his neurologist, and they
said
the doctors talked. They have decided something must be going on in his brain,
now,
causing everything, even the low blood pressure. So according to their wishes,
he is
going to U of M to the emergency, so they can do more tests on his brain, and
hopefully his carotid arteries. So, I’ll keep you informed, as I know
something
either later today, or tomorrow. Linda will probably post on Facebook, so the
next
message you see, may be from her. So prayers, again please for tony.
