We had 4-5, very light gonna go see if the push boom will work after another cup.
Very sore, fell flat on my back in the kitchen last night, slipped on flour while coughing trying to get some flem out that went down the wrong pipe.  Actually blacked out for a few seconds.  Scared the hell out of the wife and dog.

I don't remember falling.  Gopher Grease called today, he's an old Corpsman.  Said my brain ran me down on O2 trying to clear my throat and slipping likely caused it a panic mode using more O2 than it could spare at the moment.

Didn't seem to me to be anything to make me think stroke or anything.  Sat a couple minutes and got right back up and ate my pizza I made.  Doubt I'd of jumped right back up with even the mildest of strokes.

Slim

[Major 2]

neurally-mediated syncope or fainting a brief loss of consciousness and posture caused by decreased blood flow to the brain.
I had Sinusitis and had few gray outs myself a few years ago.... Coughed till ran low on O2  a the lights went out for brief moment...

[litl rooster]

Thanks for the Coffee Slim- hope Number 1 is improving.


I monitor my O2 saturation carefully. 90’s I can get around okay concidering all the facts. Like only a partial right lobe. When it drops in the 80’s I will feel it. I become disorientated dizzy and begin not seeing clear. It has dropped as low as 78. Usually by then Suzanne and I recognize a problem. Like I am on the floor, looking for help.  If extra Oxygen doesn’t correct it I am on the way to ER. Two days later I wonder where the bruises come from.


More pleasantries the rain continues, i haven’t had a calling to build any kind of watercraft yet. But I have been eyeing some lumber. Always good to be prepared.

[Delmonico]

What ever it's called I scared the hell out of the wife and dog.  Still sore.

Mr Shipley  B13 joins us

Got the walk shoveled, didn't die, but my back hurts.

[The Trinity Kid]

Afternoon all.

Currently 20 degrees. Can decide whether it wants to be blue skies or snow on me. As I write this it's sunny, but to the east is coming down, and heading this way.  We have 3" if fresh stuff since this morning.

I had what I called a "minor" stroke in November of 2014. I woke up from an afternoon nap and my speech was slurred along with some numbness in my right cheek. My wife drove me to the ER and their tests confirmed it was a stroke. They officially called it  a blood clot on the brain probably caused by a bad cholesterol reading. They gave me a drug called "Clot Buster". Within 45 minutes my speech returned and the numbness went away. What I didn't know is there is a three hour window in which they can administer the drug. After three hours it is no longer effective. I was lucky as I felt good except for the slight numbness and slurred speech. I almost ignored those symptoms. This was a big wake up call for me to pay attention to my cholesterol readings.

If you see someone experiencing the following symptoms, get them help immediately.
Sudden numbness or weakness in the face, arm or leg (especially on one side of the body).
Sudden confusion or trouble speaking or understanding speech.
Sudden vision problems in one or both eyes.
Sudden difficulty walking or dizziness, loss of balance or problems with coordination.
Severe headache with no known cause.

One of the nurses told me there is no such thing as "minor" stroke.

[Delmonico]

See other than falling over I had none of those.

[Johnny McCrae]

I've fallen a few times like you have Del. All I ended up with was a sore back. My numbness and slurred speech were pretty clear signs of a stroke. Glad to hear you are OK and able to shovel snow.
