Introduction

Update…
MBH was seen yesterday in TIA clinic. No further tests were carried out other than physical strength. The clinical nurse actually said “we can’t help you any further” and appears to have discharged him straight away.
I asked if they could arrange for a Myasthenia Gravis test. For those who don’t know of the condition, it can present similarly to a stroke and I just wanted to be sure. Unexpectedly they’ve agreed and hopefully will let us know when he can have it done. If this turns out negative, I don’t know what else we can do other than arrange for him to see a GP, who will likely send him to a&e again.

@Worriedlilwifey i guess its good news they have ruled out a stroke / TIA. But not helpful when you don’t know whats going on.

Good they are going to do the extra test. Let’s hope it’s not too long a wait.

I would perhaps make a GP appointment anyway just to follow up on whats happened & see if there are any other tests he may need.
