So the good news is my headaches seem to be gone. I keep getting sharp stabs of pain that may last up to 1 or 2 hours but for the last three weeks I have been mostly pain free.
The bad news is the numbness in my face is getting worse. Painfully worse. the whole left side of my face is nothing but pins and needles. My left eye keeps twitching and watering and my left nostril won't stop running. When I brush my teeth the pins and needles get worse. Same when I wash my face. If for some reason I rub the left side of my face the whole thing not only gets worse, but twitches painfully. My appointment with my new neurologist isn't until February 5th. I've toyed with the idea of going into urgent care, except I keep feeling guilty about the idea because this isn't really urgent. I never did get the results of my MRI.
I'm going to have to call the advice nurse tomorrow although I'm certain there's nothing they will be able to do.
This whole situation is so fucked.
I'm going to medicate myself and go to bed.
