I'm going to say since this week began a 10....

I'm really not well physically. I was sent to the local hospital on Wed. I had tests done and a CT scan. My blood pressure is severely high. No-one meaning GP's would listen to me and take my concerns seriously and this in turn has lead to being taken to hospital as my blood pressure at that time had reached 193/123 which is massively in the red zone. The CT scan shows a small lesion on my brain. I need an MRI scan on my head, possible lumbar puncture and I may need to see a Neurologist. I might have pressure on the brain but it's all guesses at the moment.

I'm worried about what this could possibly mean, how will I cope, why wasn't i taken seriously and fobbed off by 2 GP's who didn't examine me as a "muscle spasms and or inflammation". I'm really worried as a friend said it could be a tumour on the brain. I know I'm being dramatic but I really am never unwell and this has thrown me
