Only grape juice? I would die on so many levels! Glad you are feeling better...poor hydration (esp. in our "old age") is so important. Maybe set a reminder for yourself...drink some water everytime you're on the computer or something like that.


OK. So it's not just grape juice, but any variation of grape and something else, from "Dole." Water and OJ make me sick, and I don't drink coffee or tea. I did use to but flavored water from "Dasani", but it got be so expensive. I've become spoiled in my "old age" I'll have to try that again.

You are too funny!

Ruth, I'm so happy that you are feeling better. And Jenn is right -- you need to keep hydrated! Our old age has nothing to do with it!!!

I'm definately feeling numb in my neck and mouth. I called my OB, Dr. B and he told me to call my Neurologist right away, but they don't have an on-call service ; Neither does my regular PCP. I guess I'll wait until my husband gets home and figure out what to do. Thanks for the prayers.

Praying, Ruth. I don't want to be alarmist, but I think you should get checked out as soon as possible. It's probably nothing, but better to know for sure!

Praying, Ruth. Maybe you should go to the Emergency Room? I would think they have a neurologist on call who would come in to check this out. I'm not trying to frighten you, but I think you should see someone sooner than later.

Praying for you,

Peace,
Nancy

I'm praying here, Ruth. And I agree with Nancy - I don't think you should wait. You should get to the ER.

Please keep us posted!

I wasn't able to get a hold of my neurologist at all yesterday, but I will call him sometime tomorrow.

The numbness is gone, I'm able to type and eat with no problem. I don't feel "off" anymore and I can think and speak clearly. It must be due to all the prayers.

I had all these symptoms last year, plus a severe headache, which lasted a month. After being hospitalized for 4 days, and many, many tests, nothing was found. My neurologist was stumped and released me from the hospital with an "unexplained virus."

Thanks again for your many continued prayers. Have a blessed Palm Sunday.
