Greetings,
I've been shelved by my doctor, and yet, I worry that I will have another experience like he one I had just a month ago. I'll make this brief, but would welcome any and all suggestions.
-I was engaged in ordinary activity. I remember thinking that I was really hungry, and approx. 2 min. later, my eyes rolled up in my head, and I lost all my orientation. I sank to the floor. (I was babysitting at the time, but the children were watching a movie downstairs).
-I never lost consciousness, and remained aware of my condition.
-The episode lasted approx. 20 seconds.
-I had tremors immediately after the episode.
-I went home an hour later, and was besieged with extreme nausea, and lower digestive issues.
-These GI symptoms lasted for 24 hours.
I went to the doctor, and she ran a CT and an MRI. All was normal.
She sent me a letter telling me that everything was okay, and I could call if I wanted, but really there wasn't much that could be done.
And, so, I wait for another episode that may occur when I'm driving (which I'm now loathe to do, since I'm afraid I'll kill someone else, or myself, or both).
Has anyone every experienced anything like this??? What tests should I request from my doctor, since she doesn't seem willing to pursue this.
Thanks, so much
Janie
