I was hospitalized earlier this week...

I had a seziure at work on Sunday, May 31, 2026, but I don't remember much of it or my hospital stay until about Tuesday, June 2, 2026 when I got out. They admitted me because I was having symptoms of a stroke and they had to rule that out. Which they did mostly rule it out. The neurologists there said that I had a focal impaired awareness seziure followed by a generalized seziure which caused the stroke like symptoms that they admitted me for and had to rule out. It's scary to know that from what my coworkers said I was able to still work while having the seziure, but not have memories of it. Also to see that my blood sugar got to 68 and they had to force me to drink sugar drinks to bring it back up. As well as the fact that my blood pressure the hole time was high. I can't help, but wonder if they were able to know and treat the focal impaired awareness seziure, earlier if it wouldn't have caused me to have left sided temporary paralysis because of having two seziures and not being able to tell what things were like cups and sounding drunk or high when I wasn't. But because of my blood sugar dropping and my blood pressure being high I'm going to make changes to my diet to help control those as well as work harder on my exercise because diabetes and strokes run on my dad's side of the family. Not sure if they do on my mom's side though. But the paralysis thing scared me and them saying and treating me for a stroke was scary as well as having to treat me for my blood sugar being low. But I got this when it comes to making the health changes needed to avoid having those things happen to me in the future. It shouldn't have had to take this hospital stay for the wake-up call to happen, but it did.
