I just had a male intern check me out. He asked a lot of questions and then had me do a lot of hand, eye co-ordination motions and other motions with my arms and hands. He used a stethoscope to listened to my chest and back as I took deep breaths…
The intern brought back the doctor and he did the same thing. Then the doctor had me take off my sweat shirt and undershirt and he examined me and asked some more questions. He even had me sit at the desk where the computer was and to type somethings. The computer was not online and I had to stop and get my glasses out of my windbreaker so I could read what was on the screen and type that…
The prognosis? The doctor ruled out that I’d had a mild heart attack or a stroke. His main concern was that I might be in the very early stages of Alzheimer’s disease. He ruled that out. He said that the muscles in my right arm are probably tired because I spend five hours in front of a computer five days a week at the employment and training center and then I come home and blog for two or three more hours.
He was going to set me up an appointment with a therapist…
I’m in the lobby now and I’m going to get my flu short.
