I'M ILL

A few days ago I had what may have been a mild stroke. For a while now (weeks) I've felt a sensation coming at me, accompanied by a high pitch, while I've been writing. Then one session the high pitch rose suddenly and a kind of flash in my head occurred.

I got dizzy and nauseous and immediately had to put everything down and stagger to bed. I'm on my third day in bed, mostly sleeping, no appetite or thirst ar first (since improved). And, peculiarly, my prostate problem (up to 18 pees a day) stopped. I have double vision and stagger like a sailor when I do go to the toilet. My spouse did some research and some of the symptoms matched thunderclap headache. But no headaches followed past the first couple of days. Stroke? Meanwhile, the stream of electricity sensation coming through my head has accelerated and intensified, after a day ot so of improving.

It all sounds kind of like the stuff affecting american embassy workers at the Cuban site, who were complaining about so-called directed energy weapons, but I have no evidence that that's at work here.

So, it's off to the neurologist at the new local hospital. Maybe today or tomorrow. I loathe hospitals and prefer to self-improve.

I hope it gets better so that I am no longer staggering and I can return to full time writing and research in philosophy (AI).
