Hello all my friends and neighbors out there in MSB land. As you all know
Tuesday I was called in by two of my U of them specialists to go to the
emergency room at the University of Michigan hospital in Ann Arbor. After
approximately 10 hours of various tests, including, a CT scan of the brain, A
chest X-ray, lots of bloodwork, Doppler‘s on the neck, and an MRI of the brain.
All the tests came back negative. I also had a MRI on the chest cavity
Thursday the week before. That test was negative as well. fortunately I’m still
in decent health except for the blood pressure issues. Nobody knows now what’s
causing this stuff. i’ve been going through this crap now since the end of
November 2019. This is starting to wear on my happiness. It’s really depressing
to have to deal with day by day. Anyhow, Thank you for all your thoughts,
prayers, and support during these trying times. I hope you all are doing good
health wise out there. Take care and God bless all
of you.

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.
