Post Headaches & Hospital appt. Scared!

I need some advice. I am 16 yrs old and bout 6 months ago i stared getting headaches. I dint think anythin of it then I started gettin numbness down 1 side of me and I cudnt swallow properly wen this happened. I tared getting faint/dizzy spells and feelings of nausea. I became tired all the time and weak. I recently hav started havin truble rememberin things on top of all that. I went to my doctrs and she tried me on different migraine medicine and anti inflamitaries none worked. She has referred me 2 the hospital and my appt is on the 13th Feb. I am quite scared, does any1 hav any ideas of wot cud be wrong.
I wud appreciate any advice.

With luv, a very scared buttercup

This sounds like the classic signs of a CVA to me and yes, unfortunately, sometimes it can happen in people who are very young, so if it is, you need to find the cause.
