Its just a difference between where the clot is, on the left side and the right side of the
brain, and it affects the symptoms quite a bit if i remember correctly. Who knows if i am
though, im so completely spacey today.
No offense taken, its the most obvious answer and one I did consider, dont get me wrong.
Im not sure when this was posted, my email program went skitzo on me today.. and
maybe yesterday too?
I actually saw my doctor today(see post prior).
It happened yesterday past clinic hours. Without writing a book, I cannot explain to
anyone the depth of the incompetancy of the ER I would have to go to. They would not
have taken it seriously, and would have told me it was a migraine and why was I bothering
them and to go home, after making me wait 10+ hours(yes seriously) in the waiting room
before even getting triaged, and since I am not in the age bracket of what doctors
consider general stroke risk, nor do i have high cholestorol, etc, they would have just
discounted it. Unfortunately, I have been to this ER enough times for migraines to know
this and even my husband who always sides on caution when it comes to my health
couldnt help but agree that i'd probably have better results just seeing my doctor this
morning(had a first thing in the moring appointment today anyways for a follow up for
sinus infection), and depending on the ER's wait time I may even see HIm before i got into
the ER, because it happened in the evening. I talked to him about it while there, and I also
see my neuro today as well(also for a already scheduled follow up) and am also going to
talk to him about it.
I hope that answered your question :)
