It WASN'T the tooth it turns out · 6:18pm Jul 13th, 2023
That root canal? Definitely needed to be done, but it wasn't the source of the problem as it turns out.
On this past Sunday I was experiencing headaches, migraines, and distorted vision, so I had mom take me to a hospital in the city. They couldn't give me the MRI that I asked, but they gave me a CT scan and discovered I've had stuff GROWING IN MY BRAIN that shouldn't be growing in there. I do not remember a single thing after that CT scan, next thing I knew I was having my arms held in place while they kept something down my throat in a dream, but then I woke up and stopped trying to beat them up and just held the thing in my throat a bit further from the back of my throat with my teeth until they pulled a RATHER HORRIFYING amount of stuff out of my lungs. I had apparently been out for two days and they'd cut pieces off of my brain, and I would spend another two days in the hospital before they sent me on my way because I was apparently recovering very well. It'd be another couple days before they test what they extracted from me and find out if I have cancer or not.
I've got a slash along the left side of my head near my ear, can't really clean that off yet. My migraines, headaches, and distorted vision are gone, except for my eyes seeing things that aren't there in the right side edge of my sight which will hopefully stop after it's healed enough. I definitely need new glasses and I really hope that I'll be able to clean my hair soon.
That sounds nasty, but at least things are improving for you.
That is quite the news! I'm glad you're doing better.
Damm, I'm glad they caught it when they did!

Yeah no kidding! I traded my migraines and headaches for the pain of a healing surgery incision and I do NOT regret it lol

Me too! It was getting progressively more impossible to just live day to day with the constant migraines, headaches, vision effects, and inability to read or talk, eesh!
