I had not properly set my notification choice and didn't realize there were replies. I was last aware of responses in January.
My appointment has been moved to September, so I have not yet seen a neurologist. However, in February I sent a message to my PCP and she requested that someone from neurology call me and explain the head c-t scan. A neurosurgeon called me in early February and explained that the vertebral and cervical arteries involved a redundancy and didn't result in a serious situation. This was after he had asked a number of questions regarding my health. He stressed the importance of being aware of stroke symptoms and getting immediate medical assistance in the event of having stroke symptoms. He also stressed the current status of early treatment. He spent a good amount of time talkin with me and I decided that I could accept his explanation, but hope the appointment date is not moved even later in the year.
FYI: I have also been diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy caused by pericious anemia in about 1990, small fiber neuropathy in 2014, obstructive sleep apnea in 1991, central sleep apnea in 2018, congestive heart failure in 2019. I am 85 years old and my mother lived until just short of 98 years old. I don't expect to live that long, but if I do, I don't want it to be in a decrepit state!
I am appreciating Mayo Connect and reading it daily.
