Horray for brainscans!
#24
So I went today and it wasn't that scary. Kind of relaxing really.. in that tube.. just laying there... awaiting my fate. The doctor said that the swelling could have been caused by a disk in the top of my neck that was starting to herniate and pinch nerves. He told me I should be in a lot more pain so he wants to run more tests. He gave me some hardcore drugs that make me feel really sick to help drain the fluid in my cerebral cortex. There is no abnormal brain activity (so I am as smart as before) and the swelling should go down in 3 days. I have to go back thursday though just to make sure thats what it is. He said there is so much fluid that he can't really see the back lobe in the scan enough to diagnose with feeling confident. So I get to go back on Thursday... horray. I will update after that

damn... all that Tylenol can't be good for your stomach, I'm glad you went to the doctor. Good luck tomorrow when you go to revisit!! health problems scare me cuz you're pretty helpless, luckily we have ok doctors here.
