I have had my round of accidents this past year.
I think it started when my doc gave me a statin prescription that plummeted my BP.
I was in a fog and numb emotionally, and felt like I was in a maze.
After a couple of really bad mistakes, I decided the meds were the culprit and I quit taking them. I got back to my usual self, but somehow felt disturbed and numb.
I also had a couple of other medical events: a concussion and trigeminal neuralgia, which were both awful events to go through.
A chiropractor helped with the trigeminal, and I went to a brain surgeon because the pain was so bad. The neurosurgeon had a terrible prognosis if the pain were to continue.
The chiropractor alleviated the pain.
My brain scans came up normal except for the facial nerves, causing the trigeminal.
Since then, I have been conscious of everything I do because I am the only caretaker in my small family. Without my administration of finances, everyone would suffer.
My 2 other family members are disabled emotionally and cognitively. It is not easy; they take up much of my time.
I have many senior moments I guess you call it; I attribute it to a busy lifestyle with so many distractions. I still work, although it is physically draining, and I am slacking on my physical fitness routines, which I really need to do. When I avidly work out, things get better. But there are so many things to do, and I wish I could one day get back to the physical fitness as avidly as I used to. It helps tremendously.
