Thanks for replying all so very much I was starting to think I was the only one LOL Hey Winter perhaps we could write a Novel together LOL that would make some reading eh Creative Kelley LOL Naaaa Me'll stick to Weird LOL

Hi Folks, Ever Since I Can Remember I've Had Bad Dreams, Not Always Nightmare's But just Dreams that have left a memory. I Talk in my Sleep Lucky for me My Wife Knows this and Takes that into account when i shout out Other Peoples names, Some being Women Some Men and Some being Pets I've had or Friends Pets. Sometimes you can have a Convosation with me, and yet I don't know I'm having it. It's like I have an Active mind that doesn't know when to Sleep. Ever since my TIA I seem to be getting more upon more Dreams sometimes having upto 4 full length dreams, each one consisting of a whole day from morning to night. Almost like mini episodes of life, relived in a dream, and some dreams are so real i awake only to find it never happened. Yea I know, I'm a Weird and strange guy but just wondered if anyone else has these sort of Dreams? Does anyone else talk in their sleep or more? I know its not conected to Strokes But was Currious to find out if any others have these. Sometimes it gets me down as I don't seem to have had any sleep, Yet I have, I think Take Care's XXXX

Hi Donna, I Suffer with what the GP's say is Thunder Clap Headaches, They Come on so Fast and really Bring you right Down Feels like some one is Pushing your Eye out from the inside When I 1st had my TIA I thought every headache was it all over again and 1 GP told me it was Migraine, But It wasn't like others had discribed. They're Horrid thing these Headaches and I Hope they go for you. I Can't take Ibu thingy so I take Paramol Seems to lighten it a little.

Thought I'd Do Mine Tonight Haven't done it for Ages Now But use to 6 times a Day on a Good Day, I even took it places if I were out for Longer than a Few Hours Almost an OCD Now, Like i said, Haven't for ages and it read 154/64 Pulce was 60, Though It does and Can go Lower. Which for an Overwieght Smoker Who had a TIA Ain't Bad ..... is it?

Hi Tracy, I Only had a TIA (Mini Stroke) But every little Thing Made me think i was in for another, I Get Pains in My Left leg and Arm Still, and that some times feels like the Start of Pins and Needles. X

Well Im Another Gulity one for Smoking though Have really cut down after My TIA, I was on 40 a day that is 20 Taylor made and 20 ish Rollys Now im down to 10 max a day And I feel so much better for it. Like Janet I enjoy it so much, and working alone its a sort of Company if you get what i mean, It alows me to Stop and take a break if i feel i need one. My Doctor/Consultant told me that Smoking wasnt the Cause of it but it helped towards it so I ought to Give it up but my main aim is to Lose weight and as She said you can not be expected to do both. And i had to laff and the next bit she said, " you are only a man" LOL

Have just done my BP it was the same as usual, tonight it was 116/59 its about that every day at about 6 pm after dinner and Bath. Think thats ok so ive been told. I have my own BP machine which i had become rather addicted to but now i do it just once a day. LOL I dont take BP tablets though I take aspirin and Statins and Perstatin.

I swear By Lemon Honey and a Tad Of Brandy all Heated Up, It tastes ok and Sooth's a Sore Throat. If not there is some Herbal Plant which looks like Rubekia But its called Ekiesha or somthing like that LOL It works as My Boss's Daughter Never Gets a Cold and She Takes it all the Time Hope some of this Helps XX

Thanks Tina XX

Thanks Penny A real help. XX

Hi Got my Date through for having my heart test, think it were called a Saline Bubble Echocardiogram. Its Due on the 4th of Novemer, there going to inject me with Salt Water Bubble then take some pictures like they do when your (not me) Pregnant. Has anyone else had one of these things done? Im Seeing my Consultant this week on Wednesday, she is very nice her name is Avril Mcdonald, Shes cool, and have also got to to see Dr about Wieght... Hope Ive lost some clothes feel looser so somethings moving LOL. Has anyone else had one of these Bubbles etc Done? Do it Hurt? I take it that its best to have it done? I would be greatful for any info from people who have had one of these thing, I know Im Stupid but I do get quite worried and it stress's me out. you have all been through so much and i do worry that im pestering somtimes about things. Anyways thanks to you all XX

Hi Even though I only hada TIA, I get a Numb sensation on my Jaw Bone almost like Pins And Needles at times. But and its a Big Plus for me Since I had My TIA I havent had Pins And Neddles In my arms as I did, I didnt used to be able to hold a Knife and Fork with out getting them Holding a Hammer Was just as bad, So some good things did come out of mine. Like I said be it with mine a TIA was only small compared to what you and alot of others on here have been through Im Sure everything will return to normal its just a case of Small Steps. Good Luck Janet x
