Strange numbness and did I have a silent migraine

28, male, healthy life, not smoking, doing drugs, occasional drinker.
So 5 days ago I had pain in my right eye which I ignored, and the next day something new happened to me. The back of my head went numb for 5 seconds while I was on my Pc, I could feel,see and hear everything, I spent half an hour around the house until I went to bed because I felt super tired and slept from 1 to 4pm. After that I had hungover, vertigo, confusion and generally felt like shit the whole day. Next day I only had confusion, and slight loss od balance and its been like that for 3 days now, and Im getting better each day. Today I have slight headache around my eyes, stiff neck, felt slight numbness when I went out for an hour in the sun, and still a bit loss of balance. Im woried about the numbness and is it a migraine or a pressured nerve? Cant visit the doctors because Im in another town, and dont trust the local ones because everyone told me that they are bad at what they do. Have to wait for 2 months until I go back home, and need to know should Ieave everything and visit the specialist or can it wait.

  1. Hi 2johnnysrb,

    Thank you for reaching out to us with your concerns. The thing is, when we have new and/or different symptoms, it's important to let the doctor know so he can rule out anything more serious. I understand that may be difficult right now, but an important step in your health care.

    Will you let us know how you make out?
