It's me again with that same old head swelling ,hurting , shivers in my head,feeling like ice water in my brain feeling.I think I'm dying. Oh God please help me I'm so tired If I make it till the 19th I see the neurologist maybe I'll get some answers. At the least I hope I can get an MRI to check my head because I know there is something serious going on up there .I wake up nightly with this feeling I walk around most days so dizzy all day I can't continue to function like this all I want to do is lay in the bed all day with the covers over my head and never come out.Does anyone else feel this way, I'm at my wits end I think I'm losing it.

I do!!!!  The ice water in the brain is exactly how I've described it but my doctors look quizzically when I tell them that.

I did get an abnormal vestibular function exam, but my MRI is normal. I know this should make me very happy but I'm left wondering what is happening.

loglegmomma,  just had to bud in a minute.  Don't you just love when the doctors give you that quizzical  look with their head tilted to the side.  You know they have no idea what we are talking about.  :(

Too often I hear them say "I don't know what to tell you...". I feel like shouting, "How about you're curious to help find the problem so we can solve it?!?"
