Guest guest Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 Hi all, Haven't been posting much at all of late. Three strokes this year since Xmas. Many heart problems (throwing blood clots to the brain); weakness and some permanent vision loss from Amorosous Fugas type strokes. Quit 5 medications to try and quiten my nervous system (or, sanity) - you know; anti-this, anti-that, and stopped taking strong narcotic pain meds. Tough grind, that one! Taking a moment to say that I care very much for you all, and I am just typing at this moment, I think, to try and reinforce that I 'AM' still.....still here. Jo...have been following your posts, and feel so, so, deeply for you, and pray for you each and every night when I retire. This syndrome surely does test one's mental and physical endurance. God bless you all. Love, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 - I'm soooo sorry to hear about the strokes in the eyes and the brain. Does the doctor think it's due to the EDS? HOw's your swallowing ability with the strokes? How has this affected you? Being a speech language pathologist, I'm very interested in what you have to say about this. Answer when you can.
