A GROOMED who missed his own wedding reception after passing out with the "worst headache of his life" and feeling massively hungover - despite not having touched a drop of booze.
"The photographer noticed I was a bit off and said 'are you alright?' - I shut my eyes without even realising.""I popped to the reception and said 'I think I've got to go to bed or something. I feel absolutely awful'," he recalled."I ended up just going to the hotel room and essentially just passing out for the evening. I was thinking 'I'm never going to live this down'. I had to go off ill on my wedding day.
Nathan said: "The Monday hit and I said 'I'm not feeling right'. I might need to go to A&E or something'.It's a bit crazy how I had all the symptoms of a migraine but it was something far more serious. I didn't even think about getting it looked at until it carried on three days later"They did a CT scan and said I had swelling on my pituitary gland, which sits on the brain."It haemorrhaged in the morning so I was bleeding in my brain.
Symptoms can be caused by direct pressure from the tumour itself or they can be caused by a change in your normal hormone levels.The hubby, who proposed to his partner on December 22 in front of St Michael's Mount, Cornwall, admitted the discovery was "crazy" as he had just dismissed his pain as a migraine.
Nathan said: "We're planning on our one year anniversary to invite everyone back and essentially everything we missed we'll do on the anniversary."Luckily we didn't plan a honeymoon. I wasn't able to fly after that operation.
