There is really nothing they will be able to do for you in the ER that your regular doctor or your neurologist can't do for you.

You should ask your regular doctor for something to control the nausea and headache, and possibly the panic attacks. Those symptoms can be managed until the time you see a neurologist.

Even if you can't sleep, be sure you are resting quietly and not doing things that strain your brain or your body.
