My friend, I'm so sorry. How are you doing now?
I'm epileptic, but it's controlled (was controlled?!) by medication. I'm still here that's what counts, but my favourite past time (driving) is postponed for the foreseeable future. I don't want to take attention from your thread, but can definitely relate to what you went through and am rooting for you!

Don't apologize...we need to share these events so the avoidable ones can be avoided.

I can't drive for another 35 days and I'm devastated. My daughter brlought up an evtra steerind wheel with paddle shifters on it for my occupational therapy for me to practice. It was a first for my therapist but she thought it was a great idea.

How long before you can drive again?

Hips were easy. It was the MRSA, staph, oral fungal infections skin fungal infections and...for the coup de gras, The F'n Shingles which caused me 6 months of misery. I took 35 different meds in that time period. My last 12 have been the worst, health-wise of my life. Several hospital ER visits, prior to the CVA for the infections.
Good the hips were easy.

Sorry about the other.

Glad I already had my shingles vaccines.

Perspective rears its head again. 6 months, so your 35 days would be a dream, then again in some states the seizure free period is 12 months! Thank goodness for work from home.
