Well, I thought after my latest admission with hypocalcemia, I'd be ok, but no, things got worse! I suffered from an excruciating headache after being discharged, culminating with intense confusion (couldn't figure out how to get dressed, use the toilets, banging in the furniture etc..SCARY!!). I was re-admitted on 6 December and had an MRI 2 days later (!) which first showed a bleed in the brain! then I was told it was…
