Title: Re: my head went numb ??? Post by Charlotte on Nov 21st, 2006, 9:23am Was it numb from the inside or numb when you touched it? When the neurologist poked my face with the pin on the right side it was numb, but on the inside I was just past mid hit. Charlotte |

Title: Re: my head went numb ??? Post by Tata on Nov 21st, 2006, 6:12pm Hi Dave- I've never had that happen, but I think I would call my Dr like BD said. Not trying to be an alarmist, but I think it's odd enough to report. Hope things are better... |

Title: Re: my head went numb ??? Post by yikes-another-one on Nov 22nd, 2006, 12:22pm yes, a severe headache and numbness can be sign of a stroke... and going to doc is the best insurance.... but you know the normal pain we suffer is "severe" so be on the look out for "Changes" like being "confused", unable to speak coherantly..... or being suddenly "clumsey"....numbness can be part of that... or just a "normal thing" what is important is to journal it....and like the dr. said, they can spot some troubles on the MRI and other tests.... big hugs to you for survivng a 12..... I remmeber that the pain scale is always "changing...." in that once you have a level 10.... (the worst pain in your life) you can have a worse 10 next time....for unless it surpasses the previous pains, it is jsut a 9.9999999999 ) this thing can make me zany and moot....so don't mind my "stab" at humor....

Title: Re: my head went numb ??? Post by dave..... on Nov 22nd, 2006, 12:49pm confused ?? i am always confused......and clumsey.... yes the pain scale is constantly evolving.... but that was the worse pain i ever felt i was happy when it went numb..... i still feel.. not right... kinda stoned........ humor is always welcome |
