Hello
I assume this is the correct section
I have no insurance and have been getting not the best medical advice so have turned to this place
Above my nose on my forehead I have swelling, it has some red dots in the sweeling area SOMETIMES.
I have only noticed this since I passed out 11 days ago. When I passed out the ER did a simple EKG, looked at my blood tests from a month ago when I passed out and said I have some Nuerological Disorder and to put a cold ice pack on my forehead when I feel symptoms coming on
Well I have had this pressure in my head since then and my forehead is swollen from center of each eye to the other and about 1" to 1 1/2" from where my nose meets my forehead, Almost like a severe ear ache too. So I tried to put the ice on my forehead like I was told by the doctors in the ER, I does relieve the "pressure" in my head as I call it
What can this be? Im at the point where I need to tell the doctors what to check
As to the passing out this has happened 3 times in a year, last July they said I was dehydrated after EKG, Blood Tests, Urin Tests, Back X-Ray, Head Scan and chest x-ray
When I passed out one month ago I felt it coming on and thought it may be suger so did drink 32oz of Gatorade fast and brought me out of it so I decided to eat something, About 30min later I passed out and the ambulance took me in, when I started getting light headed in the ambulance he had just cjecked my info and BP and all was good but that fast it dropped to 69/30
By time I got to the Hospital they could not find anything and all they did was another EKG, They said everything looks good, In the ambulance your BP dropped so the only suggestion we can give you is see a cadiologist and give them all this info and maybe they will know what it could be or will send you to another specialist
Then 11 days ago my uncle was in the operating prep room, I passed out, The Regitered Nurses saw it, They said "he has low suger" because they said the symptoms were of course the hollow to no hearing, blurry vision that turns to tunnel vision, POURING SWEAT. They gave me 3 of those little cups of Orange Juice the size of an apple sauce cup and that fast it pulled me out of it
We were by the elevators going up and down, the OJ brought me out of it before we were down in the ER and we were by the elevators.
Any suggestions as to where to start and suggestions or questions to give the doctors?
Now grant it I have a severe back problem or assume it is a back problem, In November they did some a few disks that were gapped but I have never heard of a gapped disk, Here is the info on my back, could the medical issues be related? I dont know
