Thanks everyone, the reason that i asked was because i had stents fitted. My dissection was on a junction with another artery, so they had to overlap the stents. I'm sure i can remember the consultant saying something about a monthly review to make sure that the stents are performing ok. Then again there was an awful lot of information to take in at the time. Lin-lin, me put too much pressure on myself??? Never......))

Many thanks for all of the kind words and advice. Of course i realise that i need to slow down but it's hard you know! I do take naps when my body tells me and boy does it tell me. I have been trying to describe the "fuzzy" feeling to my girlfriend but it's odd, the best i can do is "fuzzy". I had one of the bad days today, headache and sicky feeling but lots of sleep and water seem to help. I do have a question for everyone, Do we get called back for a review or follow up CTa at any time?

Hello everyone I suffered a SAH with Vertical cerebral dissection on the 31st May 2010. I appear to have been very lucky in the fact that i do not seem to have any physical problems BUT like many others here, I do not feel the same. I have always been a very active person, name me a sport and I've tried it. Having spent many years in the Royal Navy, always working hard and playing harder, it's very hard to come to terms with whats happened. It is obviously very early days but i find it hard to deal with the tiredness and that "fuzzy" feeling. I have good days and bad days but thankfully not too many bad ones. My family, partner and friends have been great but I also know that this must be affecting them too. My boss has been great throughout this so far, so it's one less thing to worry about but i drive as part of my job, the worry is still there, lurking. Having read some of the stories of other members, i consider myself to be so lucky. Now if only i could stop crying at the drop of a hat, everything would be good. This whole adventure has certainly made me think. All I've got to do now, is find out what I'm thinking about.......I tend to forget things. I am sure of one thing, things are sent to try us. Well........... bring it on! Good luck to all those people that have posted their own stories, we can get through this AND thanks to our loved ones for going through it with us. (got to stop this crying)
