im on a lot of meds but upped the dose of my water tabs. ive had to get some meds as liquid as im having trbl swallowing. waiting on a scan of my throat, due to my throat i had missed some meds.

Hi, I would say your bp is high also, they need to get that under control. I have two leaky valves myself, aorta and mitral. Had two stents put in last year. Have had a Transcient strokes myself. I hope the doctors can help you to feel better and prevent further strokes. Boy our bodies sure do turn against us, can't they. But I know, for myself, I haven't been taking the best of care of it. We're here if you need to chat.

ive had 2 strokes to the left side of brain which im lucky as no paralised. got short term memory lose with them. i have 2 blood clots on my right side. i was also on life support in sept 2015. the new liquid meds are quick acting esp water 1.

I see, you've been through a lot . I have short term memory loss also, guess from the transiant stroke. Sometimes it just feels so overwhelming, but the only thing we can do is take care of ourselves and pray.
