Out of Nowhere

Was having a nice day Monday. The weather was great and I was out from about 11am. At 5 pm I started to feel small twinges of head pain...took my granddaughter to McDonald's and as I am sitting there the pain was steading increasing. As I knew I had about a 4O min ride home I quietly told her we had to head home.

The Worst Pain Ever

Through the drive I could feel the pain and my panic to get home. By the time I got to the deck steps I thought I was going to pass out. Walking up those steps felt like I was being hit with a hammer at every step. When I got to the top the pain was so bad I couldn't breathe. I got on the couch and waited for my daughter to come home. When she did I went to bed and slept for almost 14 hours and thru that time until it passed I could not move my head. These are getting just too much now . I think I have to go back to the doctor.
