Vein discoloration after IV

 My wife was admitted to  ER yesterday, with what was diagnosed as a  basilar artery migraine, which is the first  of that kind shes ever had, so it was quite frightening.

Hi rpm,  Welcome to Healing Well forum.  I am very sorry for your wife's illness and diagnosis, I have not ever heard of this disorder before.  I think it is important to note, that we are not physicians here, we are just regular people who have heart problems that share information and lend support.  Having said this, I would wonder if perhaps whatever they have running through her IV isnt causing this reaction.  I would suggest asking the nursing staff there at the hospital or one of her physicians when they stop in to check on her.  I wish you and your wife much luck and hope she recovers quickly.  Take care

 

Thanks Eli.

Hi rpm,  I am sorry I didnt realize that she had already been discharged home.  Looking up this disorder it states that it is a neurological disorder related to the brain's major artery.  I am sure you have researched it by now.  I can imagine that would be very frightening.  I hope things get better real soon....
