Title: Prayer request
Post by LANCER on 08/19/18 at 08:36:02

I find myself in the hospital this morning from a possible seizure event this morning. There does not seem to be any follow-on symptoms. Waiting for an ambulance ride to a Tulsa hospital for more in-depth and detailed scans and assorted tests.
Will update when more info is available.
Pray for a good outcome and no hindrances to RIDING.
Thanks guys.

Hope you come through with a clean bill of health. A young employee of mine (18 yrs old) blacked out 3 times for no apparent reason, and we were worried. But it was a virus and he has not had any further issues whatsoever.

Praise Father Son and Holy Spirit”

Intermittent problems will drive you crazy... Be it the motorcycle or the human internals.

Try to remember what you were doing prior to the incident.

Sure hope you and the docs figure out what caused it so you can not do that anymore. :D

Be aware that the contrast agent used for mri isn't perfect. It messed me up.

I made a break for it this morning and got out on a clean break.
Paula and I stopped at the Classic Diner in Henryetta for lunch, some of you guys may remember that place. Good country food.
We are at moms now for some homemade strawberry shortcake.
Perfect stuff for a diabetic ! [ch128513]

The Doc said they were unsure of what happened to me. They suggested checking some of the meds I take for migraines, especially Gabepentin. Apparently long term use can result in episodes like this. My son is a Dr. of Pharmacy and had some suggestions for alternatives. I will of course follow up with my primary care Doc and go from there.

Thank you all for your prayers.
God is in control and HE is our source for Peace That Passes Our Understanding.

If you have migraines, suggest you take magnesium.
You can have hair tested for metals and minerals, about$100.00.

you take magnesium.

It works on my bovine group … no migraines that I can tell of ! ;)

I might need to start having my turn at the salt lick too , sound like a good idea ! Really , it makes me wonder if any of us get al the stuff our bodies need ? :-?

My magnesium level has bee too high in the past so I need to watch it carefully. This low level the other day was unusual so I just added a little back into the mix. I’ve had migraines since 1979 so this is not a new thing for me at all, but thank you for the concern.

Our soils have long been depleated of minerals, that is why fertilize is used so much. Besides that, crops are typically picked/harvest early while still green so they have time to get it to store shelves all over the world.
Ever wonder why fruit and veggies you buy have little to no flavor any more ? That is why the roadside farmer/seller do so well, their stuff is picked much closer to the RIPE stage, and actually has good taste to it. I grew up playing and then working with my grandfather in the peach, almond and walnut orchards, picking “ripe fruit” from the peach trees. It was full of flavor and lots of juice, so much that it run down your neck when you would bit into them. That is some goooood stuff. You will never find that in a typical store. I never have and I look for it all of the time. I love peaches. They were big, plump and juicy...soft ball size. They peaches in the stores are usually so small they would not even pass the “cannery” size test, they would be thrown out.

Wow! You guys got me to thinking about my grandmother on my mother's side. She had a small farm and once I was old enough to drive she would get me to take her from the city to the farm when I visited her. She had mango trees, oranges, tangerines, cashews, sugar cane and I cannot remember it all. But picking the fruit fresh from the tree and eating it was amazing. Or cutting some sugar cane, peeling it and then chewing it to get the sugar juice was delicious. And then to top it all off, we would build a fire with bricks around it, put a metal 55 gallon drum lid over the fire on the bricks, roast the cashew nuts and then eat them. Great memories but you actually got me teary eyed thinking about it.

Hay Springman

or
On the Grill ? :-/

Weather is beginning to moderate a bit, will be getting properly cooler up in the mountains soon.

Oldfeller, glad to hear your wife is doing better.

MM, I don't know what it would be like to smoke the cashews. Let me know how it turns out. I can tell you the roasted ones are delicious.

Lancer, I'm glad to hear you are doing better. Please take care of yourself.

OldFeller , glad your wife is back to doing something she loves to do. :)

I hope this cooler weather is agreeing with your health .

………………………………………

I hate it that my ridding buddies are all loosing their ability to ride. I've got a lot "Vested" in you fellers ! Ya'll need to heal up , and be ready to ride around middle Tn. next summer. I was ridding up near "Cristal Ridge" this afternoon and it dawned on me ... I never took ya'll up there , its only 30 min's from my house. Its kinda like an eastern version of the Texas Hill Country (not as big) ;D.

………………………………………………………..

Lancer , that version of the Skyway ya'll have in Oklahoma was a really cool ride , and your place is more centrally located for gathering , so we need you to get better ! ;)

………………………………………………………..

Justin , I'd like to meet ya at one of our gathering sometime , and you too engineer .

Old Indian turned out to be a really nice feller and I hope his wife didn't give to hard of a time for going "Out Ridding w/the Boys", I hope to see him again next summer sometime too.

……………………………….

Heck ! Sometimes I even feel like those 800 mile days are all behind me now ! :-/

Doing good, thanks.
Apparently one of my meds causing the episode is the best guess for now.
I’m in the process of working it down and then eliminating it.
Nothing was said about driving or riding so I’m good to go. [ch128513]
