Mrs. V. -- possible old stroke
Mrs. V.'s been having some problems for which our doc sent her for a CT scan, among other tests. Yesterday we learned that the CT scan revealed a lesion in the left basal ganglia, and our doc has ordered an MRI. It's scheduled for Tuesday.
For the past couple of months, Mrs. V. has had worsening tremors in her hands. On a number of occasions, she has felt like she was going to faint. She has also had trouble finding the right word, or has stammered, or has used the wrong word.
Do you know anyone who found they might've had an old stroke, or a test found something in this area of your/their brain? What was the ultimate diagnosis? Prognosis?

****.
I'm sorry to hear it, Downwinder, but glad the interferon is working well. Does it kick your ass, though? I went through a six-month treatment that included interferon and I had to go out on disability.
And with that, there's a DUmp stampede for interferon.

4. I asked the neurologist about long term studies.
He said, "You are it." I have been on it (product of Chinese hamster ovaries) for for about 10 years. Off twice
1. three month fight with Medicare Part "D". 2. 72 hrs. in the local lockup for having MS (PI with no alcohol).
At my worst I could not see, talk, or walk.
P.I.? Private Investigator? Penis Implant? Public Indecency?
I just love it when DUmpmonkeys use initials for things.

I don't understand anything about No. 4 there. Chinese hampster ovaries? :???: PI with no alcohol? Locked up for MS? :???:

Many people cannot tell the difference between Chinese hamster ovaries and Korean hamster ovaries.

Well that's just racist. They all look alike, huh?

PI is probably public intoxication. No alcohol but what about illegal drugs?

I think the meds are made with the Chinese hamster ovaries. PI is anyone's guess. In math it's called an "irrational" number.
So maybe the dummie got locked up for being drunk but only acting irrational.
Oh NO.....am I starting to understand how Dummies think? :runaway:

I knew these shitstains would take any drug they get their hands on but....Chinese hamster ovaries? WTF?

Chinese hamsters giving the ovaries that American hamsters will not do.

But once you go on the drug, you crave it again an hour later.
