MRI results and second neuro appointment...

MRI results showed nothing out of the ordinary... i was almost disappointed. however, the neuro has another idea: Idiopathic intracranial hypertension. Which means a lumbar puncture. but from my reading etc, i'd say that it's about a 50/50 chance he's right. being autistic, having fibro myalgia, and meniers's it's fairly likely that it is actually migraine. on the other hand, obstructive sleep apnea, long term BC use (10 years) and my luck being sucky do point to IIH.

then there's the possibilty that it's actually both.

MRI!

MRI's are scary at the best of times. even worse when you're autistic, claustrophbic and have an unremovable (albeit titanium) piercing in your [none of your business]. however i survived today having the MRI my neurologist (with a migraine! and a cold!) although this is mostly because they sedated me. whatever they used, i want it. slept like a log when i got home and had done of the weird dreams i've been having lately. and my vocal tic has been a lot quiter over the last however many hours since they sedated me.

hopefully some more posts soon, am planning one on natural options that can help manage migraine.
