plz comment asap!

So earlier today I suddenly became almost blind in my right eye. After my full vision came back I got a really bad headache. It went away a few hrs later and i dnt hve it now but I was just doing some research and I'm scared of what I read. Is it too late to go to the hospital? I read that my symptoms should not be ignored. I called my doc earlier and dne just said to go to the hospital if my headache continued after taking Tylenol. What should I do?

They kind of ignored the fact that I went blind in one eye and just told me I had a bladder infection...

a Friend of mine had this happen during both of her pregnancies.  She was put on medical leave from work and had to stay on bed rest most of the time. but you should get it checked out.

I had this happen where I lost vision in both of my eyes followed by a migraine. I went to the er and my blood sugar and blood pressure were normal, so I had to see an eye doctor. I got diagnosed with migraines and auras (which very simply put are visual disturbances). My obgyn prescribed some medicine that I can safely take, but they told me as long as the auras don't last for hours it's okay and just to take it easy when I have headaches. You still should go get checked out because it may be something else if your vitals are out of whack.

My sil had that happen during pregnancy, they told her it was a type of migraine and that it sometimes happens during pregnancy. It's still best to get checked out though.

If you called your doctor I would listen to what they said. Sometimes the Internet can miss diagnos you it could be like symptoms of one thing but something totally different.  Just do what your doctor said and good luck. I hope everything thing is ok
