Re: Re: New to all this (to Rose from Joan)

Other than my bilat. hearing loss, everything else has been on the left; even my eye dryness is worse on the left.

Hey Rosie!!! How did you make out with your carpel tunnel surgery?!? Half of my dr.s indicate I should have the surgery, while the others say that it will only come back due to the sarcoid. What have your doctors said about this to you?

Regarding the left side ... my strokes occurred on the right side (what is affected in the right side of the brain?...anyone know?) Is the memory on that side? Sexual/hormonal on the right? Emotions?

My left side has debilitating chronic radiculopathy. Also, the arthralgia and neuropathy is worse on my left side.

Hugs! and Prayers!,

The left brain is the functional side--- common sense, problem solving, multitasking, etc. The right side is the creative side-- more emotion and artistic.

I'll try to look it up later, I can't recall exactly what functions where. Hmmm, that's a left side answer. . .
