@sb4ca Thank you for your update. This is an important discussion because it may save someone else who is having a stroke. Often the person having the stroke doesn't recognize that things are changing, and may not be able to speak without slurred speech or be able to dial a phone. The title of your discussion said sudden vision changes, dizziness and double vision and that is a red flag for symptoms of a stroke. I am very glad that you updated us. The hard part of an online discussion is that no one has the ability to physically help you if you are in trouble. We have only words. Thank you for coming back. Will you discuss this with your doctors?

I understand wanting to find others with a similar experience. Perhaps you will be teaching everyone else about this condition. Thanks again for coming back.

Jennifer

I absolutely plan on bringing it up on Monday. In fact, I may start with that. I have a progressive neuropathy that he is treating me for and we're to discuss treatment for that and my newly found mild cognitive state. It's possible I've had some ocular weakness for some time and this is making it worse. I have to close one eye to prevent double vision, before I had to be very tired for that to happen and I can see very mild ptosis in the eye with the primary infection. Thank you for your concern, I can actually feel that in your words.
