I must say that Georgia and South Carolina, as typical Red States do seem like the middle of nowhere, although the Medical College of Georgia is supposed to be one of the best in the US. . .say the red necks!
Oh. . a little update! My husband had a second stroke just 3 weeks ago. He obviously needs to see a neurologist to try to find out what provokes those stroke and the damage done to his brain, as well as a way to maybe prevent further strokes and further damage.
We have been waiting for a referral to the neurologist. It arrived this afternoon. The appointment to SEE this neurologist is scheduled for THE END OF JANUARY 2013!
Let see. . .how many strokes can one have in 3 months?
sorry to hear of this malady. strokes are horrible things.
I gather he was not worked up after the first one. damn shame. a friend had one years ago and younger than normal. they got it figured out and he's been a-ok since. a neuro work up is a good idea especially to guage the effects but not too likely to explain the whys behind the strokes. its the clod of whatever flying through the arteries that winds up in the brain that does the deed. better see a blood guy. my friend had a rare blood disease that causes massive quantities of white blood cells that did him wrong. took actin on this and that fixed it.
may be worth the trip to Atlanta or at least Charleston.
