Still Not Dead in The Common Room

Been in the hospital a couple more times/weeks. Stroke symptoms with horrible headaches and serial vomiting fosr hours .
Have added neurologist to the collection.
No one could find any sign of anything. I kept saying I had my spring sinus infection, but hospitals don’t believe that a temperature under 99.6 is a fever and my primary care doctor has retured and moved away and so can’t vouch that my normal body temperature is 97.3 .
After a week in the hospital with a bazillion tests and no real medication, my temperature spiked at 102 and my blood pression shot up like a comet. someone finally prescribed an ancient myacin type antibiotic and I got better.
Guess 1: Hospitilist a-stroke Hospitilist b - not a stroke Hospitilist c - Probably a stroke but no evidence
Guess 2 Cardiologist - TIA - no evidence
Guess 3 Neurologist Basil Type Migraine because no evidence of anything else.
A helpful person at the hospital managed to get me an appointment witha primary care physician, but not until April.
Headaches still bad. Still throwing up a lot Vision almost gone.
I miss both reading and writing here. Best to all of you

I am so, so sorry you're still suffering like this. I know the frustration of not knowing what's what for sure and wishing you could just go back to feeling like your old self. Hugs!

Thinking of you, can't imagine what you are going through as anything but torture. So hope you get a break from pain and not being able to see clearly. What more? You're my hero for fighting back and surviving.

Thank you for the hugs - I need them! I still miss her terribly and I'm still mourning my other girl. It's good to know someone out there cares, too.
