hi steve

my SAH WAS ON THE 30th/31st October 2013.

  I first thought that if I could get to bed after going to the  the bathroom, which was why i was up and a good thing to,  and  somehow sleep the headake and queezyness off it would be ok in the morning.. If i haden't fell over the cat when my left leg went numb and the noise waking my son up,  I might have died in my sleep. 

It's frightening how we sometimes try to quote yourself 

"Because I am a 'tough' ( insert reason here ) Yorkshireman I thought, get over yourself, stop being soft "  un quote..

we live in a small village in north lanarkshire.  so some directions were needed.  when the ambulance arrived the driver said " I didn't even know this place existed "

I'm dissapointed the hospital didn't give you any follow up information. Thank goodness for the internett.

quote:  " I can walk and talk but I have little mental stamina and have a permanent headache which ratchets up and down for no reason (actually it's because of the Hemes floating around up there)." un-quote. I am beginning to think a permnant headake is part of the 'recovery'  ( I will admit having to look up Hemes )

Hi Steve.

quote:  "I am always told that we (Survivors without physical difficulties) are a small minority and no research is conducted to establish medical and mental conditions after SAH." un-quote.

I agree with you there,  It's trying to explain to peolpe who haven't a clue what we are going through.   In my case it's the DWP.
