So today I am starting to freak out. \u00a0Starting a couple of days ago I began having crippling headaches. \u00a0My head would just pound like somebody was inside my forehead doing some construction. \u00a0Watching in the mirror I could see my temples throbbing in temp with my pulse. When I lay down and don’t move it generally feels better but my temples and forehead are sore from the headache and as soon as I sit up or stand up and move around my head starts pounding again. \u00a0Adrianne called the neurosurgeon on call last night to discuss what was going on and they mentioned the same thing that Dr. Zomorodi did when I was still in the hospital and had very bad headaches. \u00a0Best case scenario is I have Chemical Menengitis which is when the surgical fluid mixes with the spinal fluid during surgery. \u00a0This is supposedly easy to treat with steroids but they prefer not to unless it becomes unbearable because the steroids slow the healing process. \u00a0They also said they could do a CTScan to rule out internal bleeding which she didn’t think it is. \u00a0That is the part that is freaking me out a bit because I woke up this morning and looked at my pillow and there are several small blood spots (which has never happened before). \u00a0We are trying to go in to get checked out today because I also have nausea, claminess \/ sweating, and random muscle spasms. \u00a0Last night was a doozie of a muscle spasm … every single muscle in my body spasmed at once. \u00a0It probably would have been very amusing to watch as my arms and legs flailed in all different directions while my back arched and neck and head jerked backwards. \u00a0What a fun time! \u00a0So Adrianne called mainly because she was concerned because all of those symptoms can also be attributed to an allergic reaction to Oxycodone (the narcotic in Percocet). Sooooo … trying to take it easy for now until we can figure out exactly what is going on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
