Ah heck I forgot to wish good luck and I hope all comes out okay!!!!!
One thing the head stroke doctor did do once they saw the white spot was stop my BP medicine to bump the BP up to 170 over 90 to force more blood to circulate in my brain. It worked BUT for several days I was jumpy as hell, nervous and even my hands shook! they took a scan every day and as soon as the white spot was gone they restarted my meds! Whew. |

Thanks Guys. Very fortunate to have a friend and client who is a brain surgeon. (Very cool car guy as well!) He was able to look at the CT Scan this morning and does not see anything he would consider alarming. He stated the spots are usually associated with MS, but wife's symptoms do not point to that. He is interested to see the MRI once it is done.
Thank you for all the thoughts and wishes folks, greatly appreciated.

Glad the situation seems much less ominous than first feared. Good luck to you & the wife and let us know about the CT scan.
