Another Update After Hitting the ER
8 years ago
General
So... I went to Urgent Care which sent me to the ER... They wanted to make sure I didn't have a stroke.
Was the most terrifying 8 hours of my life but the CT scan and MRI came back clean, but my blood pressure is freaking nuts.
So... I'm left with no answers, except for that my brain is clean, my blood pressure drops and rises insanely with my stress level...
And I'm still weak as hell, get numbness and pain in my fingers and arms and in general feel sick as hell. I don't know if I'm less scared finding out it was nothing serious in my head, or more scared that we have no idea what is wrong with me now and am back to square one.
Trying to get an appointment with my assigned doctor is a trial and I just want to lay down and cry... All I want to do is get back to work and be useful again.

Keep me posted. Hoping this can get resolved.
But, in any case...I really think that's good news that they can't find anything particularly wrong with your brain. It kinda just seems like you need some sort of antistressor, just gotta try to relax... In any case, I really do hope you get it all sorted out. It'll all be okay, I know it will.
