well, i've finally thought to look online and have determined what happened to me one night last spring. i had what I think was a Transient Ischemic Attack--basically a fleeting stroke. and naturally after i read this and realized that the symptoms match up (numbness or loss of motion in my hands, confusion and difficulty speaking, etc.) as well as the cause (arrythmia, or irregular heart beat), i kind of wanted to freak out and cry. but of course there is no one to talk to here, hence the journal entry. so that's all i have to say really. it makes sense now that i was so scared when it happened, and it wasn't just me exaggerating. what scares me now is that i didn't even speak up then, when it was happening, and didn't bother to afterwards. so what do i do now? more doctor visits? more tests?
ugh. i don't know. i wish i could cry to people in real life.
