Why Did She Lose Her Vision For 5 Seconds Followed By A Weakness?
my wife experienced temporary blindness for about 5 seconds when she woke up to get coffee this morning. She experienced weakness just before she lost her vision. She suffers from Hyperthyroidism, and is having her menstrual cycle now. Other than that, she has no known health issues.
