[Guest guest]

Today I met a doctor in the special coagulation clinic. He was a cardiologist by trade and is wonderful. Dr McBane is his name. He brought in 3 other doctors with him and they all talked to me about what was going on.

They left while I changed into a gown and then Dr McBane came in and talked to me and made sure I sounded good. He is concerned about my CTV and is sending me to a stroke doctor. I told him about the episodes where I would be walking and then completely couldn't feel my left side and was told I was having complex migraines. He grabbed my hand and said that I am taking you seriously and I will figure out what this is. I about started crying.

What a wonderful doctor! I am also going to see one of the opthamologists and will see the stroke doctor and follow up with Dr McBane Monday the 15th.
