It said
I think my inner ear is a little messed up.
I want to get this written down so I can have the details in the future.
So May 18th started like every day. i got up bout 4AM as always and got in the shower. While in there, i realized that my balance was all messed up. I was afraid to pick up my foot, because I new that I would fall. When I was ready to get out, I didn't feel good about stepping over the side of the tub. I called Monica and woke her up to come help me. As I Stepped out, I knew I was going down, so instead of fighting it and falling hard, I knida crumpled to the floor.
I simply couldn't walk my balance was so bad. I thought that my inner ear was messed up, So I got dressed and went to work.
After two hours and it not getting better I went to the GM and told her that I didn't think that I could work that day could work that day so I went home I was a little scared so I called the clinic we use with the insurance company and made an appointment I went at 10:00 and the Physician' s Assistant gave me an exam that included the standard neurological screening, you know checked reflexes, did the scratch on the bottom of my feet, etc. Said my nerves were talking to each other and she didn't know what was causing it. So I went home confident that it wasn't an emergency.
Friday wasn't any better. I went through the same routine, and was home by 8 again. The P.A. called back and said that thy were going to set me up for an MRI and a neurological consultation. by Friday afternoon, I realized that this wasn't going away so I called in sick for Saturday.
Saturday May 20th, Sitting on the couch eating a sandwich about 11:45 or so. All of a sudden I felt weird, my muscles all seemed to tighten up and I remember thinking. Oh my God, I'm having some kind of episode right now.I lost my balance and fell over on my side and couldn't get up. I called Joshua to come help me.the way my voice sounded brought him and Ricky running. As Josh was trying to help m sit back up, Ricky says "Dad move your left arm." I was watching my arm and even though it felt like it was moving, I didn't see any motion. So I asked him" Is it moving?' He said no, move your left leg. I can't I said, he said that's it, I'm calling 911.
So BOOM, I ended up in the hospital. Forgive me, but I'm having too much trouble typing, Still having trouble using my left hand, and I wasn't a very good typist before this as it was.So I'll finish the story another day.
