All change What a week. Two trips to Hosp by ambulance with diagnosis ranging from Stroke TIA, Neurological events due to low BP and ending with bouts of delirium caused by infection to a vulnerable brain. Rather exhausted and certainly not myself recently

Oh my, Sam! This doesn't sound good. And certainly exhausting!! so sorry all this is happening. Are you back home? Is there an ongoing way to treat this? I hope you're doing better now, my friend

They are treating the infection with antibiotics and it should clear up within 5 days. I suppose if it doesn’t clear then it’s not an infection but another cause which is then a bit scary. When I was having only brain fog or candy floss for brains I wasn’t too worried as I put it down to….

Low BP and it soon righted itself after 10/20 mins . However in past week also affected my ability to find words and pronounce them and my coordination forgetting how to get up out of chair or climb into car etc.
