Wecome to the TIA club

Hi Scott,

Sorry to hear about your ? TIA. Scary isn't it ? That vertigo feeling is NOT nice !! I have been known to walk straight into the wall instead of down my hall. But the real bad one was when I fell off the toilet because the room wouldn't stop spinning. I can laugh about it now but was embarrassing at the time.

Try explaining to the doctor putting the stitches in your eyebrow that you cut your eyebrow falling off the toilet.

I found that I couldn't remember how to talk or that I would be half way through a sentence and would go completely blank and not remember what I was talking about. I'm very lucky that my friends are understanding and tell me what I had just been saying and then I remember and can finish my sentence.

I have been started on aspirin to thin my blood, has this been suggested for you ?

I hope they can find the cause for your problem and start the right treatment. If it happens again, go straight to the ER please, a delay of even 1/2 an hour in treatment can mean the difference between normality or permanent damage.

Best of luck

Bye

Chirley
