    Questiob about whit matter disease -> RPLS

    I had a stroke in Dec. 2012 that was complicated by white matter disease,specifically RPLS. The hospital report I have stated that part of the MRI procedure, "extensive confluent white matter changes", were found. I was wondering if these changes ever go away or if my brain is forever altered.

    Stroke

    I'm 71 and I've had two strokes. The second stroke my family was told that I was going to die. However, I fooled the doctors. My concern is I had exrays taken of my brain.

    What happened to my grandpa?

    My grandfather is 67 years old, and this morning, as he was searching for a park space at the store, he began to feel a pain in his side. Within minutes he suddenly became confused. For example, he thought a tree was a parking spot. In the midst of his confusion he rams into a parked car. He had no idea what he had just done. He didn't even know who I was or where we were anymore and he was yawning like crazy, barely able to speak. I called 9-1-1, and when they arrived, they said his vitals were....

    What could I possibly be experiencing?

    Hello, Four days ago I had a microwave fall onto my head. It hurt a lot and I had a ringing in my head after that incident. I was alright nonetheless, just a little hurt from the microwave.

As I was laying down I weirdly had a huge pop in my left ear, extremely sharp pains on the back of my head, my left shoulder and left foot couldn’t move. I was then able to lay on my bed....
