Default Spent the day in the ER

Was woken up with a headache that knocked me on my butt at 4 am. Finished my last infusion at 12 and the headache just steadily got worse. My neuro checked my BP which was 185/107 and sent me to the ER for a beta blocker and pain med. Spent 5.5 hours there...sheesh.

At least I'm don't with the treatment now...NO MORE STEROIDS (for now). YEA!!!!

Steroids have their place, but they are nasty, nasty things. I hope you're feeling much better!
