I just don't seem to have the time to get on much but I am gona try to get on here more. I just had my third TIA in November. I lost my Father in Sept to his 5th stroke. He has lost 2 other siblings to strokes and he has one brother still alive who has had 6 strokes. They are testing my blood for any disorders that can be causing them. I ma overweight and have high blood pressure and high cholesterol but none of my Fathers Family were ever overweight. I'm prayin it's just something I can fix. I have also just been diagnosed with IBS and have to get more tests to make sure its just that. I am having surgery on my knee to repair a torn meniscus next month. I have been very! busy with Doctors appointments. Good to be back here.

Hi Louise, Welcome back. I'm so sorry for the loss of your father.

You sure have been through alot lately. I'm glad that the doctor is
looking at preventitve measures to help you. You also sound like
you are in the proactive mindset...that will help you.

I'm wishing you the best and hope your knee surgey is a sucess too.
Sending some prayers and hugs :)

Hugs, Robin

I'm sorry for your loss, Louise. That's so stressful, along with all your own physical problems. Good luck and glad you posted again.
