New medication ends up with a&e holiday

So started on mirtazapine last night which resulted in a meeting with floor being dizzy and a & e now after they thought a second stroke.

Hopeful it’s not

Wishing you the best. I had several visits to a&e that were false alarms but valid reasons to go as is yours now.

The journey isn’t always a smooth one :frowning:

I hope Natalie is now ok

Let us know how you get on

All the best @garethc970

Meetings with the floor never give a feeling of accomplishment or closure.

I tend to avoid them wherever possible, as I am sure you do too.

I hope you get that medication sorted soon.

When you and I both get home We can set up some more progression on getting something to help with aphasia going

Illness and anniversaries have somewhat derailed what we had going on

Never wrong to go and get checked and I think a lot of us have phost stroke turns that we can’t benchmark I know I have had several

Glad to hear It was not something serious - enjoy the weekend

I’m sure @Bobbi would be happy to advise the route to joining the zog group where he publishes the links

I’m not going to publish that one in the general forum since to the best of my knowledge it hasn’t been put here by anyone else .

I’m happy to post the Thursday one which isn’t related to what Bobby does which is https://bit.ly/StrokeThuCafes

And I am happy for anybody to use this link at any time to hold their own meetings :slight_smile:
In fact several folk are now doing that :slight_smile:

When is good for you to have aphasia focused sesh? When we agree something all see if I can’t drum up one or two other participants from elsewhere :slight_smile:
