I couldn’t talk!

This is the first time this ever happened. I am 35 yrs young. It started as a dull headache, so i assumed it was just from being tired. as it got worse my balance was little affected, then my speech. I slept on it, with hope to be better by morning. Started out manageble, but kept getting worse even with Excedrin Migraine Clariton.
My speech started getting worse, so there for my head hurt worse. The stuttering got to the point I couldn’t even push the words out. ER did the CT, came back normal, and was diagnosed with a “complex headache”. They gave me Benedryl and one bag of fluids, but as the headache intensity came down, my speech came back. I called my OB and he told me to get off my BCP and see a neurologist. This was all very scary, and would love to get some opinions.
