Flight problems before diagnosis
This subject of "flying" is close to my heart/experience....hindsight is certainly 20/20....there was never a reason found for my sudden inability to walk up the long tunnel to the concourse; my husband thought I was just a chicken, (& I was, lol); this was a reproducible frequent occurrence.....after a wonderful visit to the grand canyon in '89, a tour plane with those long vertical windows & an hour flight, resulted in my sitting in the seat totally unable to get up or move a muscle...the captain was so patient, he waited for 25 or more minutes for me to try to get up & exit the smalll plane...I was so embarrased I wanted to just cry while I sat there, but I could not move, literally....my friend Jean & the captain were just great while they waited for me to recover..what a trial!!! & never a reason 'til now..since my diagnosis via SFMG, so many things pop into my mind that happened thru the yrs, but until it fulminated in 'o6, my thought was I was just easily fatigued, but always knew "something was wrong"....consider my self fortunate that I could continue my career in spite of this unknown challenge....it now leaves me with so many questions 'bout CMG, since it can be hindsighted to my teens. a very long time ago, lol................
