Well, I just tried to ride and do not have any directional stability. I have3 an appointment with my Neurologist on the 26th. I really don't know what I am going to do if I cannot ride my bike. That really is the only thing other than my wife that makes life worth living. According to the ER last week, the magic bullet is an MRI. They see from the CT scan that I have at least a partial blockage of an artery in my neck that has to do with the part of my brain that controls balance. But without the MRI they would do nothing to treat that. I wonder what they did before I desined and programmed the first MRI?

I hope you can solve that problem. You cannot give up riding. I've had
balance problems for many years due to inner ear damage. I had trouble
riding two wheelers, trying to maintain stability by supplementing my
messess up ears with visual.

Then I found the Catrike. I'll never give up riding.

That's quite a long delay.

There are independent MRI services, typically prompt and
$400~700 cash, rather than waiting a month and billing
someone else for the same service at $2500~$4000 through The
Medical Racket.

Typically the damage has already been done and about all they can do is prescribe blood thinners which I am not convinced is a good idea since a stroke is a brain bleed and thinner only expand that. So they explained to me that yes, I had a stroke and then could not tell me how much damage was done and how much recovey I might expect.

I think that is was odd that I had the stroke sitting around at home with lowered vital signs and not on a ride where you would expect them to be elevated. Right now it feels a bit odd walking, I am easily unbalanced so I remain within range of something I can grab onto if I do lose my balance, not that I've needed it but just in case. My wife took my car keys and won't let me drive and she is three times more dangerous a driver than I am. She takes turns too fast and too wide and scares hell out of the oncoming traffic.She typpically drives too fast, approaches stop signs and lights until she had to brake hard to stop and is generally unobservant. And she won't let me drive. She also gets lost easily and needs Google directions. How can you get lost when all you have to do is turn left and follow the road?

Trouble is, there are unknown unknowns.

Was your recent mini stroke from a brain bleed? Is it still
seeping? Is there an aneurysm? How dangerous is it?

Or was it from a clot? How big? Where?

Or were your stroke-like symptoms caused by something else?

I'm as hands-on as anyone about general medication, sewing
simple wounds, setting simple breaks etc but your symptoms
indicate a professional consultation with someone
specialized and experienced in this area.

I had a good friend who had an aneurysm. He called us at work on his
day off because our number was the only thing he could remember. He
didn't know is name or even know who he was calling, but we recognized
his voice called an ambulance and got to his home. It took him over a
year to get back to work.

One day, years later, I was having double vision. He packed me up in
the truck and hauled me to the hospital before I even got my computers
turned off. Turned out that my issue was only stress. I was under a
lot of pressure to get my software project finished while raising my
two kids all by myself.

I am of the opinion that I will recover enough to ride. My fallback position is a catrike.

No balancing required. They're slower uphill, but faster downhill. In
my opinion, Catrike is the best trike. Made in the USA.

Over the years I've looked at every recumbent and the catrike is really the only viable recumbent.

From his other post would seem he was an inpatient for 4 days? so while as
ever he’s vague hopefully he’s had appropriate care, noting that brains
don’t heal as such, though hopefully he’ll get back to the bike at some
point.

3 days, but I hould recover enough to ride. Bicycles balance themselves so I only need to get to the place where I can point them properly.

If you want hope, I and other disabled cyclists find it much easier to
cycle than to walk, my balance is much happier on a bike than it is on foot
particularly around town, though I’d certainly need to be mindful of hill
walking and my capacity to do so.

Bike is largely as I was.

They were very careful that I not see the actual pictures of the stroke. There was a clot in the main artery in the back of the neck But that might have been there since my initial brain injury since the blood flow is completely bypassed with the surrounding arteries.

Most strokes are not by blood vessels "bursting". Rather they
are from the formation of blood clots on plaques of cholesterol that
later move and travel down an artery until it's too tight, then they
block it. Whatever is on the other side (brain tissue) dies from lack
of oxygen.
Taking a thinner like aspirin or warfarin prevents clots from
forming. Though if you have an accident you will bleed a LOT more.
And warfarin is annoyingly difficult to adjust to the right
dose but it is preferable to aspirin in your age group.

Just got one of my cars back from the mechanic. Wife managed
to hit a speed bump so hard the rear springs slipped. Sounded like I
had a hardware store in the boot. And while the car was at the
mechanic she hit the garage door with the other car.
Why do women think that pumping the accelerator makes the ride
more comfortable?
And other riddles....

John when and where did you get your medical degree so that you have even a clue what you're talking about? I worked in the medical business for 50 years including designing and programming the MRI that revealed the stroke. That you are continualy talking about things that you know nothing about should embarass a thinking person.

Yup, I remember you thrilling us about stories how you questioned
"Queers" to find out how they got sick.

Ah well, I guess that could be called the Medical Business.

John, I remember you thrilling us about how important it was to be a crew chief on an obsolete bomber and then refusing to tell us what you actually did working for that support subcontractor.

I never once claimed to be impoirtant. People who left letters of recommendation for me did. Interviewing queers was a two week job between engineering projects aimed at ending AIDS and was designed to discover why queers contracted AIDS without blood to blood contact. The results were inconclusive to science but it did leave Liebermann claiming that AIDS was not a homosexual disease because 10 times more strsight people had it than homosexuals.

And yet, after my thermocyclers ended HIV in the blood banks this shrunk to only a homosexual disease.

You live in this little world of your own like Liebermann wishing to be importsnt rather than simply living your life. Being important is nothing but a waste of time. i would like you styanding next to God and telling him that crew chief story. Or Liebermann telling God that I really didn't have over a million dollars in investments.

What's with "obsolete". The squadron, one of two squadrons in the
world to be established solely to monitor the communists ands active
until 1968 - with much of it's work still classified.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6091st_Reconnaissance_Squadron

The following aircraft were uses

RB-29 Superfortress
RB-50B Superfortress
RB-50G Superfortress
RB-45C Tornado, 1954
RB-57F Canberra, 1965–1968
C-47 Skytrain, 1954–1968
C-119G Flying Boxcar, 1954–1968

Or Liebermann telling God that I really didn't have over a million dollars in investments.
Well, of course I can't speak for God, but you are a constant liar so
who is going to believe YOU?

Yup, I remember you thrilling us about stories how you questioned
"Queers" to find out how they got sick.
Ah well, I guess that could be called the Medical Business.
John, I remember you thrilling us about how important it was to be a crew chief on an obsolete bomber and then refusing to tell us what you actually did working for that support subcontractor.
What's with "obsolete". The squadron, one of two squadrons in the
world to be established solely to monitor the communists ands active
until 1968 - with much of it's work still classified.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6091st_Reconnaissance_Squadron
The following aircraft were uses
RB-29 Superfortress
RB-50B Superfortress
RB-50G Superfortress
RB-45C Tornado, 1954
RB-57F Canberra, 1965?1968
C-47 Skytrain, 1954?1968
C-119G Flying Boxcar, 1954?1968
C-130B-II Hercules, 1961?1968

I never once claimed to be impoirtant. People who left letters of recommendation for me did. Interviewing queers was a two week job between engineering projects aimed at ending AIDS and was designed to discover why queers contracted AIDS without blood to blood contact. The results were inconclusive to science but it did leave Liebermann claiming that AIDS was not a homosexual disease because 10 times more strsight people had it than homosexuals.
And yet, after my thermocyclers ended HIV in the blood banks this shrunk to only a homosexual disease.

Funny how you have a list of the most preposterous aircraft in the world - a flying
BOXCAR (which was nothing more than what it was called) and yet you never heard of the Strategic Air Command ir Tacticak Air Connand. Wikipedia is a wonderful thing for people your age.

Really John, I'm not knocking the B50 which was nothing more than an improved B29, but air reconasance missions were really not that necessar4y as Russia and China were recovering from the war.

Do you suppose that they should have consulted with me before they paid $600 for normal toilet seats? The B50 was nothing more than a B29 with larger more powerful engines. When the contract was let they ALREADY had the B52 being tested at Moses Lake and the B47 was active.

Lets see. There were some 1,183 built. In July 1950, four C-119s were
sent to FEAF for service tests. Two months later, the C-119 deployed
with the 314th Troop Carrier Group and served in Korea throughout the
war.and used by a number of countries including the Indian government.
used to transport army paratroopers for the Tangail Airdrop, and after
1971/12/16 93,000 Pakistani POW's to India pending negotiations for
their trial or repatriation.

The first U.S. reconnaissance aircraft flown over Russia was on July
4, 1956. The first U.S. Recon aircraft shot down over Russia was a U-2
on May 1, 1960, the famous Gary Powers who parachuted and was
captured.

The 6091st flew missions over China and Russian held islands north of
Japan.

Our Medicare Part B has a $225 deductible for an MRI. The provider is
good about scheduling an MRI for serious issues like this, and they err
on the side of caution. They get you in within one day.

Not sure what Medicare Advantage plan Tom is on, and it's too late to
switch for this year, so he should just pay for it out of pocket if his

We agree on the urgency and the relatively small expense.

Yet and all, going through The Medical Racket does generate
huge billings, even when you do not personally pay all of
that, and delays are more the norm than immediacy.

Well, I just tried to ride and do not have any directional stability. I have3 an appointment with my Neurologist on the 26th. I really don't know what I am going to do if I cannot ride my bike. That really is the only thing other than my wife that makes life worth living. According to the ER last week, the magic bullet is an MRI. They see from the CT scan that I have at least a partial blockage of an artery in my neck that has to do with the part of my brain that controls balance. But without the MRI they would do nothing to treat that.
I did advise you to go to an ER. They do still exist in the US,
despite Trump? Must be free, since they are for American citizens with
medical emergencies ....

What you described can progress very rapidly so an ER is safer than
waiting for an out-patient with a neurologist. And you definitely
should not be driving, you are a risk to others.
Post by cyclintom
I wonder what they did before I desined and programmed the first MRI?
Probably just ordered a regular MRI, not the "special" TK MRI.

An MRI desined(sic) and programmed by a "Tom Kunich".
I also had trouble finding any references. Why I recommended the
regular one. Or rather, recommended an ER. Let them decide what is
best, an MRI or a CT scan.
Could be something as benign as side effects of
medication(self or prescribed) or as bad as a mobile blood clot. That
could progress very quickly.
And I'm off. Bad no-break. Overheating and cuts off. Probably
just needs a new battery.

None of us know what is actually wrong (although Mr Shadow
probably has better intuition) and none of use know what to
do about it.

We all wish you well and exhort you, seriously and strongly,
to go to an ER immediately. And it would be best to have
someone else drive.

I wen't to the local stroke center and went through their whole process. Really all they could tell me is that I had a stroke quite some time ago and one again recently. That explains the constant dizzyness in the past wheich I thought caused by the medication. As for the recent one all they could say was that I had the stroke and that I would probably regain enough function to ride again probably after a month but possibly as long as a year. But I have a large empty industrial parking lot a block away that would allow me to ride about and practice to see what funjction I have regained. Since I am about to fihish the Merak and the Idol that will be handy.

Believe me when I say that I have a very strong dislike of hospitals after 3 days in one. In a place where you should be able to get some rest, you are kept awake nearly all of the time with noise and taking of vital signs. And ALL of my vital signs ae better than normal since I exercise so much.

I’d still urge some caution ie does the risk vs benefit unless the bike
needs to be ridden tested it can wait!

Two nights of 8 hours of sleep certainly helped though my balance is still questionable.

I slept for weeks be that in bed occasionally being woken by my wife
checking I wasn’t alive, ie heart beat, or on the sofa where I drifted in
and out, luckily my wife was able to work from home as I wasn’t safe to be
left alone.

I’d strongly suggest taking it easy ie rest before trying anything too
adventurous doesn’t sound too serious and sounds like recovery to be able
to ride is likely.

I have my fingers crossed. I thought that I was employed to build one of the initial MRI's but looking into the science it was probably more likely a programming task. I do not remember ever working with super-conducting magnetc but that is memory and mine sucks.

It must be horrible not being able to remember things you that you
don't recall doing. That's almost as horrible as remembering things
that you didn't do in the past.

That would be classic confabulation:

I suppose that you can so easily explain away recommendations of people working for universities and Laurence Berkeley Labs? You can so easily explain away the programming of the poison gas detector that the army used in Iraq? Or the communications adapter tha is still on the International Space station?

Talking about brain damage is just the speed of people that are manual laborers.

Brain damage isn’t and often doesn’t seem to impact folks perceived IQ and
often they can still do the big things, it’s running the house and so on
that folks fail at, does depend on the job and how much leeway there is, ie
the business will allow them to work less days or work from home or so on.

Stroke in the cerebellum would potentially do that, but the brain being as
complicated and our lack of understanding of it, means it’s generally down
to symptom being claimed/demonstrated.

That’s both in the ears or rather the Vestibular system which does most of
the balancing, and significant part of that is the inner ear bits and bobs.

AGFA is NAA (not an acronym). Try:

Agfa-Gevaert Group

Good to hear, though I’d note that cognitive assessment is something that
takes weeks but doesn’t sound like you required that anyway.

Sounds recoverable unlikely to 100% but on the whole sounds doable from my
experience and others like me at least.

Can you "so easily explain away...

" recommendations of people working for universities and Laurence

Or THAT HE SAYS worked on a poison gas detector?

Or THAT HE SAYS worked on something for the space statement?

Or THAT SAYS has millions in the bank.

OK John, what do you know about programming? You seem to have the idea that the communications adapter was something special when it was far more trouble writting the manual to NASA sytandards than designing and programming.

Likewise, had the physicists given me the proper formula for how the poison gas detector worked it would have been a 2 week programming job rather than a 3 month drag where I finally had to work the proper formula out for myself. And damage my lungs in the process.

And it must really hurt you that I have a million plus in the back so that you have to exaggerate it for effect. Because all of my investments are now in funs and bonds, I'm now only making $10,000 a month. But I'm only spending #3,000 a month.

Well, I have the advantage of actually having done things in the past whereas you spent a small fortune on tuition so that you could change ink jet printer cartridges.

Jeff, give up, a fucking nobody that has never accomplished one single thing in his life cannot insult a real working engineer.
