Is there anything that would have the same symptoms as a minor stroke?
My mother-in-law went in the hospital Saturday afternoon. When we first took her it was for dizzy spells and we thought it was carbon monoxide poisoning. When she got to the hospital she began to lose feeling in her right side. They said she didn't have CO poisoning and they did two CTI scans and two MRI scans in two days and they still haven't diagnosed her. Meanwhile she said her right side is getting heavier. They wont let her eat or drink while they are still running tests. In my opinion they are ignoring her. They were suppose to do a test early yesterday and they didn't do it until after 5 pm. (Yesterday she was trying to get someone to help her urinate and when she couldn't wait anymore she tried to do it herself and ended up making a mess. Then the nurse acted like it was my mother-in-law's fault).
I'm worried about the competency of the people caring for her. To me this is obviously a stroke and these people are beating around the bush with the diagnosis instead of treating it while they let her starve in her room. Is there anything else that has symptoms of a stroke? Should we take my mother-in-law to a different hospital?
