thoughts and prayers please

my 28 year old sister is in the ER right now.  she has had severe headaches for the past 2 weeks and went to the dr.  the dr. scheduled her for an MRI this afternoon because he noticed there was some sort of pressure on her brain.  this morning she woke up and she was extremely dizzy, couldn't see well out of her eyes and had no balance.  she is in the ER right now.  i am freaking out.  my dad and my brother-in-law are at the hospital right now.  my mom is home with their almost 1 year and i have to get my 8 year old nephew off of the bus this afternoon.  they are not sure what is going on, but her she has the symptoms of a stroke and some other thing that i can't remember right now because my mind is racing like crazy.  please send some good thoughts and prayers this way...my stomach is in knots.  my sisters are my best friends....

Re: thoughts and prayers please

  • Allie I'm so sorry.  I hope they're just taking precautions and you find out everything is ok soon.  It sounds like she was proactive by going to the Dr and hopefully that will make all the difference.  I'll be thinking about her and your family.  Please keep us updated.
  • Lots of thoughts and prayers going out to your sister, Allie!  Please keep us updated.  Hang in there!

  • I hope everything is ok. It could be something as simple as an inner ear infection, my mom had a virus in her ear once and ended in the hospital because she was dizzy and couldn't keep balance.  She will be in my thoughts.
  • Oh my goodness...I'm sorry to hear this news.  I will keep you and your sister in my thoughts and prayers.  Keep us posted.  Hopefully it is just something simple like Denise said.  ((hugs))
  • thanks ladies, i am hoping it is something really small and easily treated like denise mentioned.  she is getting a catscan right now, i will keep you updated.
  • Oh no I hope she is ok!  I'll be thinking of you and your family.  I hope it turns out to be something simple and not serious.  Keep us posted.
  • catscan didn't show anything, she is getting an MRI at 4:15.  we are hoping she gets some answers tonite!  thanks for all your thoughts and prayers ladies.  i will keep you updated.
  • Oh Allie I'll definitely be thinking about her and your family with all of this!  I hope she gets some answers after her MRI later.  Did she fall or bump her head at all recently that maybe there's some swelling in there creating the pressure like a subdural hematoma?  Definitely keep us updated on her progress!!

  • Allie, I'm so sorry to hear that you all are going through this scare & worry.  I really hope everything is ok.  Thoughts and prayers sent.  Keep us updated!
