Olhipie is having problems with a short circuited nerve...
 

My Olhipie is having a bad day...of course the memory is always a problem but he is having problems with his right arm. He is having tremors and getting the darn thing to do what it is told. He had a hard time eating supper because of it. He was also trying to write earlier and couldn’t remember how to write the number three…3…he wrote it as a E.

I don’t know if this is just one of those pseudo exasperation or what…when this has happened before it usually is mostly gone the next day. I don’t know…I guess I will know more in the morning.

We just changed his neuro doc so I’m not sure what he might do for him but I will call him in the morning…

Hope it does go away. That sounds horrible.

My new joy in life is, whenever I'm using my left arm (left side is worse than right) it aches so bad need to stop. Doesn't seem to matter what I'm doing.

I'll be checking back to see how things are for him. Thinking of both of you.

Thanks...he isn't up yet today so I don't know he is doing....

Please keep us updated Tammy. I hope it was just a fluke symptom that will go away. Jim has a "stinger" pain every morning so bad he cannot use his left arm for about 15 minutes.

He said that it feels fine but he hasn't really moved enough this morning. We are getting out today and going shopping...you know the shop until I drop...because he has a power chair....:wink:

I have a friend (with MS) who has brain-blips, and last year he actually drove 100 miles past his house before he "came to".

I've seen hours where his typing is so jumbled up, you can hardly understand what he is trying to say. You'd think he'd notice the errors, but he doesn't. Two hrs later, he is typing 100%.

I have typed things that made perfect sense at the time, and when I go back and read it I can hardly believe it was me . . . seriously, I'm sure someone hacked into my account. Even though my memory has never been great, I ALWAYS knew what I "would have" said because I am so predictable. Not so any more.

So long as he is not in sudden pain or anything like that, I don't think you need to be concerned about a stroke, TIA, or anything of the like.
