So I got my Physical therapy eval done this past week and the therapists states...well ya had some numbness on one side...and I'm like...yea...so she does her evaluation....she looks on the notes of my neurologist and tells me that He puts on chart that it might have been a TIA or a Migraine ,not sure....
She does notice weakness on one side...MRI was fine she states...told her about the echo and cardiac event monitor done...and then looks at my chart...no cardiac is put on there....I told her I do have some dizziness when I turn around quick and tell her that was before the Tia or Migraine...I also told her that my Neurologists know this, I have told him about it...So I 'm supposed to have 9 more therapy sessions...…
So I have my Echo ( Bubble) results while in ER with my youngest...I don't understand what it is...Diastolic dysfunction...Stage 1.....So have course ya have to google these things to find out what they are....a form of heart failure...that older people get, not much is known about it......I'm thinking another disease that not much is known about it...So the next few days past by...and get the results of the cardiac event monitor...nothing was seen..but I did hear it go off a few times...the nurse just states no record of the automatic going off....( have not spoken to the my cardiologist)….get this result thru a message system that my providers have...so at end of letter it states if ya have any questions , feel free to call....so of course I do......according to the nurse I don't have any heart problems.....but I have diastolic dysfunction.....confusion!!!!!!!!...so now on a cardiac diet....I know I should have been on one before ...but I have to a point watch what I eat to a point....but all of this is so confusing.....Hospital states had a TIA( mini-stroke) neurologist states I didn't, echo shows I have diastolic dysfunction ( a heart problem) but cardiologist's nurse says I don't...so confusing...I just wonder if these doctor's realize how confusing they really are to patients....
