This morning I was laying in bed and began to feel neck pain, wroteit off as just spending the night in an awkward position. Then got hit by nausea, got up to go to the bathroom.
BOOM went the dynamite. Room started spinning, strength went out of my legs, down I went. Thankfully no head blows.crawled to the bathroom but nothing came up. Began to sweat profusely and felt my left arm and the left side of my face going num. The implications were obvious. Called an ambulance then pulled myself to my feet and shambled back to the bedroom. There I lay, buck ass nekkid, when they arrived. Scariest moment was hearing the knock at the door and trying to shout “I’m in here, help!” but with half my face numbed out I could not raise my voice.
I first went to the nearest hospital. I was given medication and a kat scan. Experienced more nausea. Then it was to another hospital I went I went because they have a better neuro department. I threw up and was given a urine catheter-normally I would not complain about a young woman handling my hoo-ha, but that big orange tube did kind of damper the experience. I was given an mri test. Results: an artery in my neck, feeding my brain, has some kind of tear, how it got there is anyone’s guess. The tear developed a scab, which acted as a clot, effecting my blood pressure. I will be in overlook for at least a couole days for monitoring, more tests, and to draw up a plan of action.

Yikes, that's pretty terrifying. Glad it wasn't worse but still kind of hard to see much of a bright side on. Wish you all the best.

Holy crap. Something of a minor miracle you can even use the internet right now.
Best wishes for a full recovery.

It's amazing to me how f***ed up the body can be. And then suddenly boom, you're having a stroke or a heart attack after months and sometimes years, of no symptoms.
God bless you man, hope you recover!

Here's hoping for the best. Had some sort of heart attack last December and it showed up as my nose turning into a faucet of blood. Tried plugging it up, but it just caused all the blood to half congeal into a jelly and go down to my stomach. At the hospital ended up puking all the contents which could probably fill up a small wok.
In any case, tell your doc whatever you think is important. Was so sleepy the doc in charge of me thought I had a stroke and ordered CT scans. When the time came he was there as I was being wheeled into the scans and we talked and he realized that I didn't have one.
