Title: head guides needed
Post by: karascott on January 25, 2013, 09:24:41 am
Well guys I am back in Maryland as of  last night. I have a head ache that involves a little ear pain.  I took a pill and tried to nap. It has no went away yet. The steroids caused me to throw up last night again which started this uncomfortable dull ache at first. What to do? Should be thinking meningitis  or is this normal? I feel crazy. Help calm this hypochondriac  . Lol  ps. I am waking zombie  due to these steroid

Hi Kara;

   Steroids can produce the worst side effects in some! I think 'normal', unless you have a reasonably high temp. b-4 you worry about meningitis.
   But, of course I am not an MD. Do you think the pill was dissolved before you vomited?
   Plz hang in there and know you will get better. Hang close to Dr. contact, OK?

Kara-Can you keep in touch with your doctors via e-mail to ease your mind. 
 
 
 I reread some of your posts to understand a little better and please take time to rest and heal.  Do not think about school.  You need to recover well to do your job and it is such a demanding one.   Trust that the permanent sub  will do his or her work well and in their own way. 

May you have a steady and strong recovery.

Can you drop your head forward and move your chin toward your neck? If so it is doubtful you have meningitis. As said above, you'd also have a fever.
