Meh. My dad had 2 strokes and didn't go to the doctor nor did he tell anyone. He lied on his couch for 2 weeks. Finally my grandmother went to his house and found him. His was due to Wegeners granulomatosis. I think you'll survive until you can see a doctor tomorrow. I know people are just trying to show concern so you'll take it seriously and see a doctor, but horror stories on the internet tend to convince people they're dying of cancer and stuff. My doctor told me numerous times to never ever google symptoms or ask anyone about them because a simple cold will turn into a heart attack. :laugh: So just make an appointment first thing tomorrow morning and don't give it another thought until you see your doctor. I hope you're well and it's just something trivial! :)

(Just realized I made it sound like my dad never went to the doctor at all. He went after my grandmother found him and was hospitalized. I simply meant he didn't die. He was very lucky.)

I ignored a tooth ache for awhile once and ended up in the hospital with a 105 temp I dont even remember the ambulance ride. It was infected and was draining in to my ear canal and in to my blood stream from there. I woke up packed in ice!

My girl friend found me setting in front of my fridge with the door open naked babbling;-) True story

Honestly, I didn't even think stroke. First things that came to my mind were tumor and MS. They're still on my mind.

ITs most likely nuthen serious but better to get it checked.

It could just be something simple like heavy metal poisoning from fish or discarded medications in the water supply. ;-)

See, that is why my doctor had to put me on Paxil and beta blockers after I quit smoking. I had chest pain which I figured out months later was due to gerd and IBS that I didn't know I had, but the internet told me chest pain is a heart attack and I freaked out. LMAO

Story of my life. Welcome to the world of anxiety and panic attacks.

Spoke to the doctor on call. Over the phone, he thinks that it could be a trigeminal neuralgia. i'm going to go get it checked out tomorrow.

Glad to here you're going to get it checked out... just wish it would be sooner. As for trigeminal neuritis or neuralgia that's some excruciating pain... I know... been there.... but if you're happy then at least get in there very first thing in the AM. Oh, and if you have a blood pressure cuff handy, use it or if you have a store with one of those free BP checkers, do that.

Also, I'm only 28 years old. I don't think anyone has ever had a stroke at that age.

If i hadnt seen a doctor because of some headaches i wouldnt have lived to see 24...
Crap happens and when somethings wrong and so wierd you cant explain it you go see the doc!... One day it might save your life
