The first concerns were raised by her optician i believe and after a series of test, the diagnosis that MIL has told me is a 'minor stroke.' She is on some kind of medicine which she is to continue taking, and apparently her cholesterol is slightly raised.
I am prob going to get an apointement with her gp once the consultant has sent details across to the dr as mil is confused about whole thing.
I am obv going to ask what the implications are, what medicine MIL is on and what it does (she takes a fair few so i cant just google a particular drug). What else should we be asking?
DH is devastated and is convinced this is begining of end for MIL as his DH had a stroke and that was the beginning of a major deterioation in health for him including a number of further strokes before he finally died of a heart attack. So any happy ending stories would help too, and personally i think MIL may be thinking same as DH as tbh she hasnt been 'happy' sine FIL died.
