Had an outpatient MRI for headaches and arm numbness. Within 30 min I received a call from my PCP to go to the ED because I had a clot in my brain. I've been to several hospitals' ED waiting rooms and this one was very quick. I saw several doctors, all of which explained to me exactly what was happening, diagnosing me with severe anemia as well as the stroke, then had a small wait for Covid test results before being admitted.

I was lucky to not have lasting symptoms, but they brought a physical therapist and occupational therapist to evaluate me anyway. The floor nurses were very kind and helpful. I wish I were allowed visitors but glad they were taking appropriate Covid precautions. I was discharged the next afternoon and have felt much better since.
