Rushed to ER - My Actifit Report Card: October 16 2023

Sup, Actifitters!

It was one in the morning, I woke up with my husband catching his breath. I immediately got up to turn on the light and found him in the corner of the bed, all cramping in pain, stiff, and trying to catch his breath. I helped him sit down and run downstairs to wake up his brother, for whom I'm thankful for sleeping over last night. I asked him to start the car immediately. It was 1:40 in the morning when we rushed him to the hospital, and I'm still clueless as to what was happening to him. I thought he was having a heart attack or stroke! I was so scared for him. We were immediately assisted after arriving in the emergency room. The attending physician asked him how he felt, and all he could say was "pain" and pointed his head. The doctor gave him a strong kind of pain reliever—three types of pain reliever, actually. He was explaining to me what medicine he was injecting, and all I did was nod.

The nurse told me to sit down because I had to fill out and sign some papers. The nurse also asked me a few questions, such as what medicine he last took, his allergies, or whether he got ill lately, while I was filling out the form she gave me.

After 20 minutes or so and with the medication starting to take effect, the doctor returned to continue with his health questions. The pain in my husband's head has lessened, so he was able to answer the doctor now. I remember him complaining about headaches frequently these past few days and taking self-medication. The doctor advised him to consult a neurologist to get a more detailed diagnosis. It was a severe migraine that he's been feeling.

We are still trying to get a schedule with a neurologist, and he was advised to get a rest from work today. We went home, and it was almost 5 in the morning. No proper sleep; the physician said it was just a migraine and nothing worse. But we still need to get him checked since he has been feeling the pain so frequently. I hope it's not anything serious after consulting a specialist.
