Hi guys, i would just like to tell of something that happened to me yesterday.
I was sitting watching Television with my Son, i said to him i felt very sick, he said go to the loo and be sick, i said "I will be OK", anyway i started to feel very faint, it spread throughout my whole body including my arms and legs, until i could not even rise from the sofa, i felt terrible but could speak. My son managed to get me to Hospital where he informed them that he thinks i am having another Stroke, this would have been Number four, anyway, after waiting nearly an Hour with my stroke we were taken to a room where i had blood pressure done, blood taken for test, blood sugar levels checked, by now i was beginning to feel much better, now we had been there three hours.
Eventually blood tests came back, revealing a "Water infection" but how does a water infection put you off your feet, how does a water infection feel so much like a stroke coming on.
Has anyone else had such with their Diabetes, i have been given Antibiotics, if i had been in the street i would have been on the floor, lucky i was at home.
Almost forgot, my sugar level was at 10 when taken 2 hours after getting to Hospital and they said they were OK, who knows what they were when i arrived.
