I have just looked up DD's symptoms on the internet and now I am freaking out a bit...

Blush

I am such a fuckwit

She has been complaining of "feeling wierd" in her head. After talking this through she describes a "fuzzy" noise in her head, a bit like pins and needles

Also a couple of times in the last week she has experienced a fine tremor in her hand which has lasted about 30 seconds

She did have a cold last week. And I suspect that the tremor might be low blood-sugar type stuff

Got a GP appt for tomorrow after school just to be on the safe side

STOP GOOGLING AND STEP AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER.
It is the work of the devil and you know it. I had my DD down as having leukaemia a couple of times. Virus was the diagnosis thank goodness.
The problem with compudiagnosis is you get lead down so many peculiar ally's you start to believe what you read. Wait till tomorrow.
Good luck.

Thankyou Blush

I won't call NHS Direct, I'd feel like a loon bucket

I know Google is the stuff of nightmares. But you know how it is...

Just freaked massively a bit when 'brain tumour' popped up

Did I mention my Fuckwit status?!

I Stepped Away Blush

GP reckons blocked eustachian tube or similar as cause of wierd feeling in head

And tremor in hand as blood-sugar related

All well in other areas (though may have a slight urine infection, but sample has been sent to lab for definite diagnosis)

I tried to not come across as a complete neurotic

Thanks all
