Kaylene,

I had these mini trances as I described them when I was having mini

strokes (TIA). No matter what it is, like Kaylene says, it needs to be

checked. Janice, you did not say if you did this when you are sitting,

standing, or other situations BUT it is dangerous if you happen to be

driving or other things.

When I did this, I did not know it so yours is probably what Kaylene

says because people who have theses type of seizures, can tell when

they start the aura (feeling strange, blurred eyes etc).

Please Please get it checked. I know I have been on my everyone get

their thyroid values and vitamin values checked but the mini strokes

and neurological problems I was having all stemmed from my thyroid

problems.

Also, do not believe your doctor using one lab value, it takes all

three lab values, checking your adrenal glands, pituitary functions

because the lab value reflects only what the value is at that time.

I was seriously ill and I am not out of the woods yet. My thyroid

levels dropped one third of what they were supposed to be in December

and I was in bed for two and half months until my nurse practitioner

tested all three values, T3,T4,cortisol, Vitamin B12,Vitamin D, and

Calcium tests. My thyroid specialist had dropped my thyroid medicines

because she said it was too high but in doing so sent my body into

loop, THREE DAYS after she increased my dose, I was up and about.

The bad thing is that they cannot increase the levels fast, they can

only increase the medicine every six weeks. Needless, to say, I will

not have a normal level until the last of the year.

I get my pain under control, now I have to work on my thyroid, so it is

always something.

Anyway, Janice don't put it off like I did, GO NOW, we worry about your

safety. Let us know what you find out. I used to do the descriptions

you describe when I was sleep deprived and finally getting back to

sleep but this seems to be out of the normal for you. We are waiting

to hear what it is. Hope you find out. Bennie
