Well as some of you know I have been battling severe pain in my head where I had been hit a couple years ago and it only now is deciding to bite me. Yesterday my head got to throbbing so badly I called my doctor and he said I should go to the emergency room. So we headed there and they put me through pretty quickly and when we got to see the doctor she asked us what we wanted to do and she also said they couldn't request an MRI but they could do a cat scan that would show a tumor or bleeding in the brain. So thats what we did and it was totally painless. They also gave me three shots one to relax me, the other to take the nausa away, and steroids. I finally slept for more than 3hrs for the first time in a week!
Today we went to the family doctor because they wanted me to do a follow up. They asked me a bunch of questions and checked my weight, height, and cordination. They sent me for some blood work ans scheduled an MRI for Wednesday.
I have been having a stressful busy week and will be so thankful when it is all over it is not fun thinking I may have a brain tumor. It could be any number of things. Hopefully it is just a brain swelling or scar tissue cause they are treated with antibiotics.
I pity my dogs they aren't getting much attention right now cause we are running in and out of the hospital/docotor right now!
