So In between screaming in pulsing pain on my brain (my right temple is throbbing as I type this) I have very brief moments of feeling fine and when I do due to still not sleeping (thank the lord I no longer have to worry about dragging myself into work tomorrow) *quivering* I scroll Facebook (thanks auto correct I'm put farce book) I saw this and I'm not in stitches with laughter despite the horrendous pain and quivering and I have a weird dent my skull above my frontal lobe that I've never felt in 18 years .... (please don't ban me) fudge (langue check women) my life
When will I hear the words: get in the MRI scanner immediately which I would be much obliged to do with out complain (and who wants to say that sentence which I've been saying to my now old gp the minute I felt this pain a year ago !!!!)
I cant take it I'm calling ambulance

Good lord Bex, it is almost as hard to follow your story as it is for you to write it. Believe me I sympathise with you and the 'roar of pain' (as an old friend of mine once put it when describing the limits of endurance) when the body is designed to cope with little more than the muted, friendly 'hello' in hushed tones of discomfort. Calling an ambulance seems like a good idea for the pain relief, but I am not sure if the presence of a couple of paramedics/ ambulance staff would be able to speed up your quest for an MRI scan - let me know! - until next time, Bru
