my daughter was rushed into hospital Saturday night late with a head pain so bad ,they gave her a ct scan that didn't show anything but she has weakness all down her right side they suspect a brain bleed or stroke ,she is having a mri scan today ,god I hope they are wrong .her speech was better yesterday and she can hold things in her hand but cant move her toes on right foot and can't push the doc away when they did test .she was asked to sign a form and couldn't write .we are going to hospital at 11.30.
thankyou all ,she has been feeling poorly all last week but thought she had a cold but on Friday she was walking home from work and went to cross a road and just fell down ,got home she said she was frozen but felt hot Saturday night her temperature wa 39 and the head pain
MRI will confirm or exclude a bleed (commonly from an aneurysm) called a subarachnoid hemorrhage.
Worrying times,but surgical treatment is available with good results.
thankyou .ys they id say they would operate if a bleed is found ,I just hoping it isn't as she has been through so much ,could the stress of the last 18 months have caused it ?(nursing her hubby through mesothelioma and death )
Interestingly my dad's "migraine" occurred just after his best friend died suddenly. It took him some time to fully regain his speech and power in his limbs.
thankyou xx i've come on ab to try to calm myself down, i was like a headless chicken yesterday ,i'm trying to hold it together in front of daughter but a basket case inside xx
