Hey gang. Guess who's got two thumbs and had go to the ER today? This guy! You can't tell, but i'm pointing at myself. Yeah, this afternoon i was talking to a co-worker about Breaking Bad and it felt like i got kicked in the head and then i started seeing blurry spots and these weird wavy lines. Like when you select something in photoshop, there's that blinking line around what you selected. That. I had that around the top right periphery of my field of vision. I figured that wasn't good so i left and went to the ER. I got in, did another CT scan and got told that i most likely have cluster headaches and was referred to a neurologist. While there they gave me scripts for Motrin and Norco 10-325. i don't know what that second one is, but im told it's pretty powerful. I have a high tolerance for pain meds, so we'll see how this does. I took it about ten minutes ago so now i'm just counting down to blast off time.

OH! One good thing did come out of this. They told my my CT's were negative, so no tumors, bleeding or worms eating my brain. So I got that going for me, which is nice.

yuck. I think them being constant is bad enough- but you get the line thingy's you said in your blog with the blurry spots. I think (becides the pain) that is my least favorite part because I get that crap to the point where I can't focus to see words on the screen. I hope the meds they give you work kiss

I can empathize, I suffer from migraine with auras sometimes, which sort of sounds what you suffered. Typically my vision gets distorted in one eye and lasts for 20-30 minutes and then is followed by an intense headache and nausea.

You might want to ask your doctor about the possibility of it being migraine with aura(or ocular migraine)

Norco is a stringer version of vicodin.

I hope they figure you out!

Hope they are able to figure it out.

Glad you don't have brain worms, but still worried that you're having these symptoms and they don't know what exactly is causing them. Hope you get this figured out soon smile
