Hi Karen and Jim, hope Jim continues to improve and you also get the rest you need. Jess.xxx

Mine said I wouldn't have a shorter life through it so. Jess.xxx

Hi there well done to Sandy for continuing to improve hope you have many more happy years ahead of you.

I was told many things too and the biggest one to me was I had to get rid of my first child he is nine now I was stubborn too and it is great to read of others proving drs wrong too.

Hope Sandy feels ready to join us to soon because it really helps to talk ( in this case type lol ).

Send sandy my best. Talk soon. Jess.xxx

Congratulations to you both. Jess.xxx

Hi Donna you know I have the same symptoms but my MRI was clear drink loads of water and relax and book that holiday abroad enjoy life Donna you have too. Jess.xxx

Exercise you will be able to do it again just drink plenty of water. And take it slow.

And scarring on the brain is possible I think ( scar tissue )

Welcome to btg. Jess.xxx

Bev I replied to ur private message. Jess.xxx

Hi there I have similar problems especially when I am tired and I am ten years in.

Try not to worry drink plenty of water and rest when you need too. Jess.xxx

Hi I moved for the first time whilst I was in hospital, then again in 2004 just on the move for the last time back to brownhills it is very tiring yes I have to agree. And very upsetting too I would of loved my kids to finish at this school rather than move but sometimes you have to follow your head and not your heart. I am torn between the two places brownhills cause I am finally going home, and here because this school is the best I have seen. Jess.xxx

Ps onwards and upwards try not to get down new start.

Hi there welcome to btg.

I don't know why your mom is getting like that how old is she?, is she in pain?, maybe you ought to take her to see the Dr.

The reason I asked how old she was is maybe it could be age related.

I hope someone comes along who maybe able to answer.

Hope things start to improve soon. Jess.xxx

Thanks everyone.

Dawn thanks for answering I was also told I was probably born with it but if we weren't then could it be that. Jess.xxx

Hi Mary sorry don't know about dentist because head is supported but hairdressers can tear an artery in the neck that can cause strokes. Jess.xxx

Hi everyone it was just a thought I had because I coughed that much someone refused to babysit me again because I kept stopping breathing.

Thanks for answering everyone, however it is something I intend to find the answer to. My children have had the vaccination so cannot get whooping cough. Jess.xxx

When I was a baby before I had chance to have my vaccinations I had whooping cough. Now everyone knows that can cause brain damage, spontaneous bleeds in the brain and hernia's.

Now my question is could it cause aneurysms. Who if anyone had whooping cough then in later life had aneurysms. Jess.xxx

Hi there four weeks is no time at all. The blood needs to be absorbed back wherever it belongs lol.

Try not to worry that will only make all your feelings feel more intense.

Drink plenty of water and rest when you need to.

Hope you start to feel better soon but remember your brain has been through alot and it needs to recover and that will take time. Jess.xxx

Happy birthday Andy I hope you wife continues to improve and that she is home soon. Just take it one day at a time everything will be ok. Jess.xxx

I have had this cold/sinuses for about 4 weeks now too just drink plenty of water, and rest when you need too. Jess.xxx

Hi bev it might not seem like it now but it will get easier I was frightened I wouldn't live to see my children grow up but one is 8 nine next month the other just gone 5 and I had them both after. I still get occasional bad days even now ten years on but not as often, and I don't panic about not being alive to see them grow up.

Just try to relax and enjoy being with your son, don't spend to much time worrying just sleep when you need to and drink plenty of water your dizzy spells will lesson over time and if they don't it kind of becomes a part of you and you don't really notice it anymore. Jess.xxx

Hi ceekay welcome to btg look forward to chatting sometime. Speak to your Dr tell them how when you walk for 10-15 minutes how you feel. Jess.xxx

That is another thing my neurosurgeon told me my aneurysm would of ruptured with or without smoking it may of taken longer but like he said if it had of took longer I would of been older and may not of survived. Jess.xxx

Hi there do not feel guilty yeah you smoked but so what everyone makes wrong decisions in life and you have stopped now so you have put that right.

Tell your children you love them everyday. My children came after my sah so they just see it has a part of me so I don't really know what to say however there are alot here who had got children when it happened. Jess.xxx

Hi there sorry I cannot help with this one because I had both my children after my sah so they never knew what I was like before. Jess.xxx

hi I cannot say why it comes on after so long Rachael maybe you have been thinking about it more. Try not to worry and talk to your doctor. Jess.xxx

Hi there it's early days for you I had numbness pain odd sensations mine was 10 years ago welcome to btg but sorry you have to be here just listen to your body if your tired rest and drink plenty of water.

Anything you need to know just ask. Jess.xxx

There is that too Sami without the sah I wouldn't of found out who my real friends were and wouldn't ever of met all my new ones on here at home on my estate or anything. Jess.xxx
