Voted last night, finished my draft narrative for the grant but got some input from UConn's Technical Assistance for Brownfields to improve the narrative and clarify the geographic priority areas (and guess what? I downloaded the wrong version! It's fine, because the work I've done thus far can be plugged right into the correct version).
Made an appointment for my physical, and I'm going to ask for ADHD testing to see if meds will help (I have already been assessed by a psychologist for for 8 of the 9 characteristics of inattentive type ADHD); neurological testing for Parkinson's and Alzheimers (both in my family tree)

I’m waiting to see a neurologist, too. During my mammogram 3 weeks ago, I either fainted and/or had a small seizure. I lost consciousness, vomited, my eyes rolled up, and my hands clenched. I went to the ER and had a CT scan which came back normal. Since then, I had an ekg, an ecg, a stress test (today) and am scheduled for a 24-hour Holter monitor later this month. My blood pressure is on the low side (86/60) so I’m not to limit salt and I’m to drink a Gatorade daily.
So far, the ER doctor and the cardiologist think it was just a faint with no seizure but the technicians that witnessed it claim I seized. My GP wants the neurologist to give me an eeg. If that checks out normal, I may never get a definite answer to what actually happened.
