Superior Oblique Palsy
-
Over the weekend I came down with a sudden onset of Superior Oblique Palsy in my right eye, aka Fourth nerve palsy.
Symptoms include double vision, vertigo, nausea and a searing migraine headache.
This condition seriously limits my ability to read, watch tv, look at a computer, drive. I have to use an eye patch to function. Just to write this I had to take a break. So my participation may be limited.

Get better Gip.

Sorry to hear that. Hope you get treatment and recover.
-
yikes, hope that goes away fast, Gip.
-
prognosis?
-
Yes best wishes for a speedy return to normal!
That palsy stuff is no joke, I was laying at the kitchen table with my arm extended watching the TV in there one evening and got myself a good case of "Saturday Night Palsy" or Radial Neuropathy.
Saw a doctor when it wouldn't go away he calmly said maybe weeks or a few months or never!
It did subside in a week or two but it was scary wierd, felt like my arm was asleep. (I hope I'm really cheering you up there Gip.)

Well that sucks. Hopefully it's a temporary condition like Bell's palsy.

Quit playing with yourself all the time Gip.

Caused diplopia and severe headache. It could be months. I can only spend a few minutes on computer at a time.

Man Gip, those symptoms gotta suk..Get Well soon stats man!! Than prove to me why Cliff Branch stats is not HOF & Lynn Swann is HOF?

They call him the seeker..

Four Super Bowl rings. Beyond that, many many WRs have better career numbers than Swann. It did take him like 14 times as a finalist before he made it.
Ever hear a rising tide lifts all boats? Well that's the story of the 1970s Steel Curtain....oh wait that was the DEFENSE, let me try to think back maybe it was the collective effort of the 11 guys on that side of the ball that really won those Vince Lombardi Trophies.
And Bradshaw to Swann was along for the ride, besides John Stalworth was the tough guy over the middle that was the go to guy getting the tough first downs and setting up Lynn Swann for the glamor catches.

All the best Gipper
