Ypsilanti Barix Clinic... what a hoot....
A six week long migraine should be seen by a neurologist. There are several options for handling migraines, which you must know, and if none of those are working, it shouldn't be ignored! I mean, if you're not able to keep down any food or liquids, well, yeah, that would cause a headache... but migraines are not actually headaches, they're a neurological problem. Don't ignore it!
Thank you, I have been seeing the neurologist since the seizure, the only assumption he can make is the headache is from not eating. MRI'S, EEG'S EMG'S have all been normal other than the post seizure. I am trying to find the cause ASAP. Thanks again, I appreciate anything anyone can come up with, I feel like I am fighting a loosing battle.
Obviously I didn't get to make my appointment at Barix on tuesday..... I had the "pleasure" of spending the last 13 days in the hospital. They still could not find a reason for the vomiting and still can't eat, and lucky enough to have ballooned up to almost 240 pounds. The potassium levels are temporarily up but was informed since I can't keep anything down that I can expect another drop in that. My beginning weight at surgery was 279 pounds. Glad to know I am creeping back up there. Guess the surgery was not worth it. I feel like they are killing me. The woman that called before left a message for me, I am still trying to decide if I want to call her back. Just got home from the hospital today.
I tried to get back int Barix the second week of June and the not so polite person did not want to make me an appointment , because of the "surgeons do not see patients that do not require surgery" finally she made me an appointment for July 28th, I was to sick to get off my couch to get there and landed up in the hospital the next day. Worst 13 days of my life, Thanks Barix and the rude person that won't make appointments, and as far as I know, still on payroll. She also said that the rapid weight gain may be from small sips while eating, I reminded her that I was not eating and then she told me to go see my pcp. Jobs are hard to come by, but, I feel like she is killing people from not making the appointments or scheduling them so far out. I can only wonder how many people she turned away that is not as vocal as me. I am a nurse and know some, I am smart enough not to turn anyone away that is scared or sick or just needs help.
