council dweller Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Well, as I see it after a major stroke your brain is left in a ******ed up state. Sometimes a seizure is induced which `can` sort out your brains circuitry . This appears to be what happened to me. After I had my stroke I kept saying to the consultant...."there`s something not right"....."there`s something not right!" After I had the seizure I had no such feeling....all back to normal. This sometimes happens. I will spend the rest of my life ensuring that I don't have another stroke as there`s no treatment for the kind of stoke I had.

mikthe20 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 His underpants were too tight. Had he squeezed a couple of crusty rolls and a baguette in there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
council dweller Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 What was wrong with him ? Mini stroke ? No need to worry as there could be a massive one waiting round the corner.....no one can tell. Something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Masked Tulip Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 Do you know what the problem was yet MT? The CT and MRI scans came back fine. Blood pressure, heart rate, suagr levels, cholesterol, all fine. They were concerned about the possibility of a bleed on the brain but the scans ruled that out. Apparently they repair about 3 a day according to one of the docs. They did the MRI because apparently - and at this point they used lots of medical techno babble and I was too unwell to follow - there are a few things that an MRI will show up but a CT scan will not. Apparently, before Christmas, they had a chap whom they did a CT scan on and everything came back fine but after he was released he got taken ill again and an MRI then showed up the problem. Apparently bacterial meningitis was also a concern at one point. The neurologist said that there is a type of severe migraine that can come on suddenly and has pain which can subside when you sit down, but returns when you stand up. Interestingly, doing a google, apparently one sign that this might be about to happen is a change in taste for a particular food. In the 10 or so days prior to this I suddenly developed a taste for pickled onions - something that I have not eaten for years - and went through 4 or 5 jars in a matter of a week or so. I have been told not to hesitate to call 999 if it happens again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPin Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I enjoy pickled onions myself. Not five jars in a fortnight though. Are you sure you weren't incarcerated for "environmental" reasons? I'm pretty sure there's a "pickled onion help line". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time I got a blinding sudden-onset headache at the base of my skull it was w@nking-related. http://www.thenakedscientists.com/forum/index.php?topic=2734.125 Have they ruled that out?

IIRC TMT was sat on a park bench so it's certainly possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
