Scared the Beejeebus Out of Myself Tonight

Ebruary, 2018, I was eating a frozen dinner and bit into a Thia chili, felt as though a steel rod had been jammed into my skull. . .

And lost 3 months of my life.

I'd experieced 1 of 3 brain anurysms.

Ever since, I've become what my eurologist claimed, "skittish" about headaches.

The last time I had a "thunderclap" headache was 2019 when I was carrying a 50 lb broken microwave to the curb for trash pick up. After an MRI/MRA, my neuroloist diagnosed several tiny brain anurysms tat could rupture if hey got bigger, or as that one had done, leaked, with bloo pooling in my eye socket.

Tonight, I'd ordered a pizza. There was a Greek pepper in the box next to the pizza, so I ate it . . .

And felt like my head had exploded!

Same blinding, dizzying thunderclap headache I'd experienced in 2019!

I bet my MRI tomorrow morning will be a tad more interesting.

Stay away from those peppers! Hope you are feeling better🙏 let us know what the mri shows.

I'm curious, I don't know how long you've had ms, but did the aneurysms show up on mri's done for ms ? or did the first one happen before your ms mri's /diagnosis?

I ask because for me, they were so focused on finding a disc problem that the ms lesions were totally overlooked on my first mri's. 🙁

"Stay awa from those peppers" is xactly the same thing my partner said, LOL! I know. I no longer eat Thai chili's, and guess I have to do the same with Greek peppers. But as soon as have to give up green chile . . .I celebrated my 26 year anniversary of my MS diagnosis last August. My neurologist felt the anurysms were probably latent genetics.
