Hey everyone. I'm new to the forum. While I know this part is labeled self injury, I wanted to let you understand that I do not remember this happening to be honest. Let me explain.

2013 I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. I've went through 5-6 MRIs, a spinal tap, more than 30 blood tests/tubes taken out of me, going to doc to doc. Then I was undiagnosed with MS, and now still going through more tests from another doctor to figure out what I have.

I've had more health issues come up recently, and I just have been an emotional wreck to be honest. I learned that I do not have multiple sclerosis, however they are not sure as to what I have. So I went to another doctor, and I am waiting for some test results now as we speak. The weekend before Christmas something happened that I've never went through before. The night before Christmas I was told what apparently happened to me, since I have no recollection.

I overdosed on my medication that knocked me out for 4 nights. Sat nite to Tues night. Please don't misunderstand this as a suicide attempt, because honestly...I don't remember if it was or not. All I know is that my mother and grandmother told me that I basically slept for almost 4 days, they had to help me go to the bathroom - in which I don't remember any of this. I haven't told my doctor this either yet, but I will when his office opens soon.

I'm not sure how I'm still alive - or how it even happened. The symptoms I've had for last few months is a lot of body twitching.. Feels like my body is vibrating. And for the last three days, I've had a major headache, plus my blood pressure has been so high. I'm on blood pressure medicine, and I've taken tyenoyl but since the OD, that's all I've taken. Scared to take anything else to be honest.

I feel horrible right now. My head has been hurting for the last 3 days, my bodys twitching vibrating more often. Just unsure what to do right now.
