i am fine (physically, etc) however just as with tuesday find myself unable to speak. being better prepared and knowing what to look for (rain, wind) i stopped *trying* to speak, which was potentially / likely what did the damage on tuesday, and today i moved smoothly to communicating by text-to-speech.
unlike tuesday i have no external distress to contend with, and have not had the same TIA incident(s). i can however definitely feel some pressure in the usual left temple location, which exacerbates when i bend over, but it is not painful (ok - a 0.25 left temple pain out of 10).
basically the only thing "wrong" since 3pm and the new storm is: words are so difficult to get out, there's no point forcing them, and if i do they are just "moaned" very very slowly like i have no control over my mouth.
*on the other hand* i tried humming along to a tune and was partially successful. also single-syllable "exclamations" such as "yeah" or "oooo" are perfectly fine.
bottom line we're talking pretty serious brain damage, with blindingly obvious risk of more, yet UHS A&E insists it "cannot be an emergency"?
will keep updating.
