Strange Headaches, lots of frustration

Dear MedHelp, I'm 19 healthy female. I'm just about fed up with seeing doctors and neurolgy specialist. I've seen Doctors in London Ontario for the 5th time and they keep  telling me the same stuff. About 4 days ago (last friday) i was watching a movie with my boyfriend when this really strange feeling come in the front of my head, felt so strange it felt like a chestnut or a small object rolling down my head inside me. felt cold, like blood, i emediately had a panic attack and made him drive me to the hospital. The Dr said, don't worry about it, probably sinus problems. now I've so a Neurolgist before, and he said it's probably music tention you're expiercing. So lately, the final day today I was at the doctors because the same problem happened but even worse! so I called 911 and they sent an ambulance. They apparently didn't think its an emergency... Whatever, I'm a person i have rights to that option of 911. Anyways... My nose feels funny, tingles and when i breathe through my nose its really cold, and the cold feeling goes up my head and i can feel it up there to, and my nose feels like its got pressure on it. Someone please help me, before its to late and I die, because regardless of what doctor I see they say I dont have signs of Cancer, Brain issues, or anything like that, im sorry im really scared!

Listen, you NEED to be you own advocate, w/ such symptoms your neuro won't send you for a MRI. You need to PUSH it and don't walk out of the office w/out an appt. for an MRI. If you make a stink about it enough, they will give you one. BE AGGRESSIVE, and who cares what your doctor thinks about your personality, your health is much more important than a doctors OPINION. I know it's frusturating, being cast aside like your a anxious and nothing is wrong w/ you. but keep plugging away, find different doctors, make it your mission if thats what you want to do. I'm in your position, I'm getting second opinions about second opinions because I know something is wrong w/ me. Good luck, be bold..

HI..so sorry u r experiencing what alot of us refer to as the brush off.....most here can relate to u and ur situation.....I don't know what kind of insurance u have, but if u r not happy with the care u r getting from ur dr....get a new one.go for a second opinion.....and try to relax...stress over this will only aid in making u feel worse.

did ne of the drs do an MRI?.....have u had ur vitamin and mineral levels checked?...thyroid?.....have u tried an ENT?.....

keep us posted!!

Good luck
Godspeed
