    Thanks Jane for sharing this story.  It really is important - no matter what the symptoms - to seek medical guidance when they first start happening.  It pays to slow down and listen to our bodies and minds when they are trying to tell us something is wrong.  Thanks for  helping us to see that through this story.

     

    All the best, sue (moderator)
