Guest guest Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Hi, I would like to put out a prayer request for my daughter Kristy she is in the hospital awaiting for a neurologist to see her , she has been having headaches and last week started having seizures and she had an MRI back in 2003 because she was having sudden headaches and it came back abnormal and showed she had 2 communicating arteries that had no blood flow and thought maybe she was born with it.And at the same time she was having heart problems, Well after they put her pacemaker in her heart her headaches kind of went away so we just put it off and thought it was due to her heart. Well last Thursday she had a grand mal seizure and and had 2 other seizures since but not as bad as the first. Her Dr. thinks it has something to do with the MRI results from 2 years ago he thinks there maybe some kind of blockage. Her head hurts so bad constantly and they put her in the hospital to control the pain but they wont give her any pain meds because they said they didn't know if that would hurt her more. The Neuro. wont be in until next wednesday so they are trying to keep her comfortable until then .They are giving her atavan and haldol and ultram and Keppra (for the seizures) but it is working just enough to keep her from going crazy with the pain. (sometimes) When she gets to hurting so bad she cant stand it she gets very agitated and angry and wants to check herself out. Because they tell her they don't know what else to do.Except to wait for the neuro.What bothers me is she doesn't remember alot she doesn't remember when she calls me from one call to the next. She repeats things that she knows that i already know.And 20 to 30 minutes before her seizures she knows nothing. She doesn't even know when or even why we took her to the ER after one of her seizures. She doesn't remember anything up until the next day.I know it is normal not to remember any part of the seizure but is it normal not to remember this much and is the fits that she throws part of some kind of brain problem?We wont know until next week I guess. I have to leave the room when she starts them because she begs me to take her home and if I dont she gets very mad.So I leave for a while until they calm her down again . She hurts so bad but cant have anything for it . Ive tried to call many many neuros. to see her sooner but had no luck.So if you all can put her in your prayers it would help us tremendously. Thank You All So Much....deedee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
