They Turned Me Loss!

Well, I finally got out of the hospital last night around 10:30 PM and drove home. After having a CAT Scan, MRI, X-Ray and blood tests, they feel that my loss of balance was due to my BP getting too low when I stand up. Looks like my weight loss (50 lbs. since surgery on July 10, 2007) caused my BP to decrease before I could have my meds adjusted. So, now they are adjusted and I'm feeling fine. The staff at Inova Fair Oaks Hospital were excellent and I appreciate everything they did. I'm home now and will return to work on Monday. Thanks for all the support and prayers from everyone who did so. And a big thanks to Ann (cwmom98) for calling and making me laugh. That was priceless!
