Went out last night, first time in months, had a seizure in the middle of town and cracked my head on the pavement >.<

And there was me thinking that things had been going quite well recently. So the door staff called the ambulance and i spent most of the night in A&E feeling very fuzzy indeed. I remember the doctor asking me questions like what month is it, what's the big event going on at the moment but none of it made sense and apparently i gave some really odd answers :O

After some thought and counting on my fingers i decided that the month is "8" and the Blackpool punk festival is the big event everyone's talking about. Although i think he was meaning the Olympics :noevil: I forgot my first name too. My name is Amanda-Louise but i've only ever been known as Louise and i couldn't for the life of me remember the first bit. It's really weird that i can remember vaguely not being able to understand the doctor but there's a few blanks too where i'm not sure what happened.

They let me go after taking some blood and waiting for the results and i got the usual questions about if i had been taking drugs. Repeatedly.

Got a huge hematoma on the back of my head and a sore knee from falling, my shoulders are sore from the seizure and the rest of my body is queuing up to make it's complaints heard. Oh yeah and my mum took a photo of me conked out in the hospital too, the meany lol. I forgive her though :P

All in all not a good night :( Still feeling a little fuzzy and out of it today.
 
Oh darn! Doesn't sound like a fun night. Take it easy and get plenty of rest.
 
Sorry your evening out turned out as such. :( Remembering rhe festival and not the olympics made me chuckle tho, ty!

Rest up and feel better.
 
Gosh darnit! Dag nabbit! Garbley goop! Son of a gun! This really fries my a$$ !

Spent most of the day at my mum and dads, a good snuggle from my 18 month old nephew made me feel a little better mentally lol. Bump on the head has gone down quite a lot already but it's still pretty big. Must have fallen with such a thump. Bet it's all sorts of pretty colours under my hair!


At least i didn't lose any teeth this time! :bigmouth:
