Falls

I mentioned on the daily thread that I had fallen this morning.
Well this afternoon I did it again.
This time was the first time that my hubby had witnessed one of my falls and it has really frightened him.
He says I just dropped with no warning.
I don't know what happens, I get no warning. The only way I can describe it is a sudden loss of power.
Tomorrow he says he is taking me to the doctors and demanding a brain scan (they will never find one, I will say it before anyone else does )

I have hurt my wrist, knee and ankle and now 2 hours later I still can't stop crying.

Sorry, I just needed someone to talk too

Must be a shock 2 times in one day, I hope the doctors can get to the bottom of it before you damage yourself any more. Take care x x

Have you had your blood pressure checked recently ?
You must be feeling really shaken .

Aw Jen I didn't see your earlier post.
I am really sorry and can understand how worried you must be
having 'scary' health problems of my own .

Can you have a nice hot bath to help the sore bits with your Husband keeping an eye as a safety measure.

Try not to be too upset, there may be a simple explanation . I am afraid it is no fun getting old.
Take care..(hugs) xx

Also just thinking , does your heart feel any different when this happens ?
This sort of thing can happen when your heart suddenly goes slower than normal ?

Because we have to keep a close eye on hubby's B/P I do mine too and it is fine. I have also had lying and standing done at the surgery, all ok.

You're right there Mini. Hubby has gone out to pick our son up, then I am going to have something to eat and then I'm going to bed.

Its probably best to seek out what the problem is.

Good luck with the investigation.

Hope you are not to sore.

Was it related to food intake eg did it happen when you hadn't eaten for a while . Maybe just before a meal time ?

I would go to the docs as soon as you can, take care Jenny.

I am sorry to hear you are also having problems Mini.

I hope you are both sorted out soon.
