No seriously, someone keep me company, lol. They're gonna keep coming in to check on me and I'm not gonna be able to sleep anyway.

Last night I was with friends. Had a stroke type event. Ambulance came to restaurant. Started to feel better by the time they got there (they couldn't find the restaurant, lol). Went home. Now I'm at hospital. They admitted me. Ran loads of tests. Haven't found anything yet. Hurrah.

So anyway I finally got connected to the internet. Hello hello hello. Is there anybody out there? Just nod if you can heeeeear me...laugh out loud

Also no Lortabs. Blah, lol.

Honestly, I'm not sure exactly what happened. I had a bad bad pain in my jaw/neck. Then I got really dizzy and hot. One of my friends told me to smile and one side of my mouth wouldn't move. Then I had to drop my head to the table and I couldn't move it up so one of my friends called an ambulance and another got some ice to put on my neck. One of the ladies there is an older lady and she's had a stroke and she was really sweet going "ohh no, ohh noo, it'll be ok.." So then I laid down on the booth and I realized I couldn't feel my hands/arms and when I tried to tell my friends that I couldn't say my S's and I was talking really slow and I couldn't get out what I wanted to say. About 20 min later I felt completely fine. It was really weird. I tell you though, all the weird stuff that I've had happen with spider bites and stuff that was the only time I actually kind of wondered for a couple minutes if I was gonna die. Which I didn't, obviously, lol. I wasn't really scared but the thought did cross my mind for a couple seconds.

Oh my goodness.

I guess we'll make an exception for not posting before going to the hospital. But just this once.

If it helps things, I've taken 67 pictures of me looking dead, me with my IV, me with my hospital tags, me after the EKG, me looking dead again...etc. So even if I didn't notify before hand I was going I can still make you all feel like you're actually here! lol

On the upside, I got free socks, another free water mug thing AND I had just painted my toenails the other day so when they keep coming in and checking the pulse in my feet at least they look pretty, lol.

Sounds like stroke symptoms but humor Dr. Zoe. What were you eating/drinking at the restaurant and did you nibble off anyone else's plate? I'm wondering if this could be some weird food allergy reaction.
