Sweating so profusely is what started. I was in the emergency room having what they called a neurological storm ( it’s like dying but you don’t die. I’ve been through so many and each one I prayed to God to just let me die). You sweat like crazy, projectile vomiting, pain like I’ve never had before leg and hand tremors and I was in the fetal position, my heart rate was 170-180. A doctor who was a neurologist from a different hospital in Detroit was moonlighting helping out in the ER. When he saw me he knew exactly what was happening. He told them to hang 2 bags of NACL ( normal saline) and when that was done to hang 2 more bags. For dehydration. Then he instructed the nurse to give me bolus shots of morphine and Valium and within 10 minutes I was normal again.
The sweating I had all the doctors and paramedics never saw such a thing in the careers. I told them just let me walk around the hospital I will sweat so bad I would need to change my cloths.
