Tim, thanks so much for your openness with the YTPC. I'm praying that the Dr's continue to find the help you need and if the Lord's will, complete healing. If not, for grace and peace in hi providence for you and your family.
Yes, it is frustrating but there are other people with far worse conditions than mine. Sometimes we get too wrapped up with what is wrong and forget to see how we are blessed in other areas of life. Thank you for watching.
You're my hero as far as restoring old pipes! I got a workbench at a yard sale and I mimic your work on my collection of briars. I empathize with your loss of function, and I hope you stay healthy!
Thanks for sharing. The important thing here is that you're doing the best with the hand you've been delt with. Take care and keep enjoying the simple things in life.
Will keep in my thoughts, sorry your having this trouble, your a Great technician and a wonderful presenter.... from you calm and cool manner it is hard for me to see you having anxiety as another suggested.... it seems like you have solid medical support, thanks for sharing, I appreciate your videos and look forward to up dates on your improving condition... God bless you my friend
Wow! Please take care of yourself first. I know that the brain is extremely complicated and can effect almost everything. I learned a lot about brain function after being diagnosed with a traumatic brain injury after my deployment to Iraq. Still have some shakiness in my hand. The EEG is a pain in the butt, but is a wonder of modern medicine. Don't let your "disability " define you. Hopefully there's some therapy out there to keep you going strong. I had a great occupational therapist. Stay strong Sir! I hope that this issue fades.
Sorry to hear about your situation. I have heard people had great results from using a 7mg Nicotine patch for a week to get over these type of issues. Give it a try and see what happens. God bless.
I'm sure it's not the news you wanted but at least you know the cause now. My taste and smell seem to be permanently altered from c0vid. Last time I had it was about a year ago. I too have cognitive issues that are getting worse. Runs in my family and so far there's no reason they can find. Only treatment for things that can make it worse but not the underlying cause. My oldest brother is shaking bad in his hands and they don't know why. We just gotta keep on doing the best we can and try to be thankful for all the good in our lives. I'll pray for you and I'm sure you've noticed, this community is very supportive. If you need something or someone to talk to you will find many people willing to help. ❤✌🙏
@@The_Southland_Piper I had a golf ball sized brain tumor removed 8 years ago from my right frontal lobe. I've learned to cope with the assistance of anticonvulsant meds and behavioral changes. Hang in there. 😊
Your anxiety is high which is a totally separate issue, don’t confuse your anxiety with your other issues. My advice to you is to listen to music with earphones in a darkened room with a fan moving the air laying down eyes closed. Do that a few times about an hour before you go to sleep. My bet is that you will see an improvement. When we are in a heightened state of anxiety, it triggers all kinds of reactions. Yes you have a condition, but the stress is likely making your symptoms worse. Read a book, play an instrument, go to the gym - Avoid coffee, alcohol and hate to tell you this, stop smoking or at least cut it way back. You are a few years younger than me I had open heart surgery 2 years ago and changed my routine and never felt better - Plenty of years ahead so go out and live and enjoy life.
Thank You for the advice. Might have to try what you suggested. I smoke less than a bowl a day. Not sure why I have nearly 500 tins of tobacco in my cellar but I do. I never smoked anything until I turned 60. My doctors don’t consider me a smoker. But we all could use more RNR. Again Thank You for taking the time to comment.
@@The_Southland_Piper - I started with a pipe at 16 back in 1974 - I only smoked alone because no normal kid smoked a pipe at 16, anyway it didn’t last long back then and I didn’t start again until I was 64 and after my heart surgery - People say … What? After heart surgery? I say Yes, I wanted to start again at this age and I’m doing it. Sometime you just need to say fuck it. 🍺 Cheers

Thank You. I appreciate your kind comment.
Be brave my friend! Getting old is not for the squeamish...
You got that right.
That must be frustrating. Hopefully the docs will be able to pin it down…knowing is better than not to me. You’ll be in our prayers this week.
