Sorry to hear it, that's gotta be a shock for you.

It sounds a bit like a condition that happened to my mother back 5 years ago. She's quite alright now and the occurance was attributed to excessive stress. Depending on what your doctors find out you might just have to slow yourself down a bit and make sure you don't habitually over-commit yourself.

Best wishes for getting on top of it!

Sorry to hear that, Dude.
I know EXACTLY how you feel !!!

I had 2 seizures just out of the blue about 4-5 years ago. Suddenly diagnosed with epilepsy with no known cause and lots of time off bikes. Frustrating to hell.

If I can be of any help, let me know

You might as well go for one last epic thrash. I mean, you'll be walking for six months ANYWAY...

[skidMark]

We May just see you there....

glad the cyclist was walking around and had a helmet so many don't

You didn't mention a cyclist in post 1?

[sinfull]

Keep telling ya Baz, the roots, not the flowers !!!

But on a more serious note www.mnz.co.nz
Hose clip and a bit of tye wire and we'll see ya there !

[RantyDave]

Holy shit. That doesn't sound like fun.

I’ve had a couple of cobbers this has happened to now, both truck drivers and busy guys, one is back on trucks but the other isn't yet, from what i understand they haven't got a clue what happened or got any answers neither.

Glad you are here to tell the tale...
Good luck in getting it sorted.

You didn't mention a cyclist in post 1?

obviously your not reading the posts carefully, Dogs did not mention a cyclist as there wasn't one.. I think you will find Sunhuntin was talking about another accident outside her work which involved a cyclist

[NZsarge]

Dude, shitty as it might seem, like you said you're still kicking around and no one else come to grief so there are some silver linings there I guess. The next six months will be difficult for sure but with the love of your woman that's looking after you and your afore mentioned projects life could be worse eh..
I really hope though they can get to the bottom of what went on and why so perhaps something can be done about it if need be, hang in there Baz.
I think we need to organize the odd group visit from time to time just to check up and make sure you're behaving yourself.

[p.dath]

Holy shit. Thanks for sharing that story.

[MSTRS:Me]

What a horrible, worrying situation. And not knowing why.
As long as the prognosis is all good :fingerscrossedicon:

[Goblin]

Geez Bazz! That's scary shit. Hope you get some answers from the docs.
All the best matey.

From reading these it sounds like you're not the only one anyway.
It happened to a guy I worked with almost exactly the same as you although he finished up driving into the end of his boss's garage when driving the boss's wife home.Turned out he had had a small stroke. The good news is that he did his time off the road, came back to full and normal health and has been driving instructor for these past 7 years with no further incident.
