Final Update: need thoughts and prayers NBR

Final Update:
The doc says it was "complicated migraine" - a spasm in the brain that causes stroke-like symptoms. Sending me home, ordering me to rest.
Wants me to call my OB about the protein levels and to make sure there isn't anything he wants me to do. Gonna be headed home soon. I'm glad it wasn't anything serious, but I definitely feel like an idiot now, putting DH through all that stress and worry over nothing.
Update #2:
Had my MRI, and am waiting on the results for that. Also, they took a urine sample and found protein. So they are thinking now it may possibly be preeclampsia, which can cause stroke in some cases. Sooo.... yeah. Just wonderful lol. Been a long night so far, and it's looking like it's only going to be longer. Thank you ladies, again, for the T&Ps, I really appreciate the support.
Update:
I have been admitted to the ER. My symptoms were vision going out on the right side, trouble forming sentences, confusion, trouble understanding what DH was saying, my right hand and arm went numb/completely useless(i couldnt fasteb my bra or even put on my seatbelt. Or type.), and I had nausea. The doctor said he thinks it is a migraine causing stroke-like symptoms. My issue with that is I dont have a headache... and I have NEVER had a migraine before...
He is sending me to get an MRI, and L&D are going to come down and check on the boys to make sure they are ok.
Thank you all for keeping me in your thoughts and prayers.

I'm definitely glad I have you ladies for support, I actually started tearing up reading these.
Get that protein checked ASAP. Mine went from slightly elevated to dangerous after I had that headache episode.
