I go to my doctor a week from today.. hope he can at least figure out something that will allow me to drive again.. this sucks.. they kept me in the hospital for 8 days when I was down there.. not much they can do for a stroke after a couple of hours(at least to my understanding)

Sorry to hear of your medical problems. Wishing a speedy recovery to you. My dad had stroke and was paralyzed on his left side. He recovered completely and retired to work after a lot of physical therapy. I had a problem last night with with my blood presure, went to the hospital with a blood pressure 212/102. They pumped me full of so much crap to get it down and now today my blood glucose is 482????? Yesterday it was 109 . Hell to get old. Take care.
it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead

Mike you need to take the advice of the Doctor and slow down, for at least a bit.
Strokes are no [censored] and they are serious.
We don't need any more young guys checking out early.
Give yourself some time. I don't think death is that cool.
Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C. Alston

Dude, you’re doing your vacations all wrong. Hope everything comes back to normal. If not, make the most of the new normal. It seems that you are already back to business. Just ease back in!

Dam Mike! Glad to hear that are on your way back! Hopefully it's a one step back, two steps forward kind of thing. I had a setback in 2011 and it opened up a LOT of new doors and brilliant experiences. Hopefully it's the same for you Brother! I can't help but wonder, as there are some of us here that are getting older, what was it like? Were there warning signs? If I am going too deep here, don't answer if you don't want to. I appreciate your candidness and I have nothing but positive thoughts and prayers for you and everyone here. Cheers! It didnt appear to be much.. I was drinking my morning coffee and got pretty dizzy.. I told the wife but said not to worry.. about 2 hours latter I said I was still dizzy ..I got up to get another cup of coffee and she seen I was having a hard time walking (like I was REALLY drunk)she asked again and I told her if I didnt feel better in a while we MIGHT have to go to the clinic (which we ended up doing (on the car ride to the clinic I couldnt even open my eyes due to being so dizzy).. thats about all..now my vision and balance are still off... even now
