Hi, everyone. I'm new here so allow me to introduce myself. My name is Deb, married with 3 children. I had my SAH on July 17th. I was running a bath and at firs just felt a bit odd, like I was watching the bath fill through a fog. I stood to turn on the cold tap and collapsed to the floor when I came around the bath was full! I tried to stand and realised my left side wasn't working, I felt (and heard) a kind of snap in my ankle and fell to the floor again. Somehow I managed to drag myself downstairs to tell my husband. I was then suddenly hit with the most horrific pain in my head and was violently sick. Husband rang out of hours doctor who , after listening to my husband, phoned an ambulance. I don't remember anything else until 3-4 days later. Spent 3weeks in hospital, had numerous episodes of numbness on left side, CT scans and lumber punctures. I was allowed home on the proviso there was someone at home to "look after me" Well, there was but it didn't last! I have a 14 year old daughter who has suffered with anorexia for almost 3 years, I am her main carer and to say her illness is stressful is an understatement. Pretty much straight away I was back caring for her. It's very much like having a newborn, she is currently beginning to recover (finally) and she has a very strict meal plan. So my day consists of watching the clock for the next meal, snack, shake etc. She is home tutored so I have a constant stream of people in and out of my home, between tutors, doctors, therapists etc..... I really haven't had time to come to terms with my own illness, and I just don't have time for me. I am still suffering terrible headache, noises in my head, (probably tinnitus) fatigue, poor memory, among other things and the thought of going out and seeing people fills me with dread. We are going for a meal tomorrow to celebrate me eldest daughter's new job. I am dreading it, partly the being in public and partly because it's my first time to drive, only got my license back yesterday. I look forward to being part of this community.
