Danielle Freeman suffered a two-minute seizure at work and initially believed it was just a 'bad hangover' but doctors soon revealed she had a benign tumour in her brain.
A young woman who suffered a terrifying seizure while working a shift at a McDonald's drive-thru initially blamed it on a "bad hangover".
Danielle was too disorientated to even tell the paramedics her name or where she was. She was rushed to the hospital where she was placed under observation for several hours before being referred for an MRI appointment. She said: “Compared to the first seizure, I didn’t really feel anything. I just felt like I woke up from a normal sleep. I felt tired from the night out, but I immediately stopped drinking after that.”
During a following-up appointment, doctors said a scan revealed a pea-sized mass in her brain that could have been there for as long as seven years. She added: “A consultant explained my brain couldn’t process the hangovers because of the tumour, but that having a few drinks on a night out had not caused it.
