Hi welcome to btg I was clipped so cannot really offer any advice on coiling hope it all goes ok xxx

Glad you liked them xxx

Win R.I.P you will be missed by everyone who knew you thanks for coming into our lives and making them brighter. 

Me Garry and Shayne clapped for win aswell last night so sad xxx

Sarah so sorry about your mom she was a wonderful person who will never be forgotten she was always there to make people happy when they were down she could always make me smile xxx

Hi there I have had two children naturally since my sah caused by ruptured aneurysm I had two brain aneurysms both been clipped xxx

I would really try not to worry though and speak to your Dr they wanted me to abort my first child (thank God I didn't listen my neurosurgeon said I would be fine) get in touch with your neurosurgeons office someone will be able to help xxx

And congratulations on your baby xxx

Congratulations on nine years colleen hope you have many more xxx 

Hope you get sorted soon and everything is ok xxx

Hi Maeve firstly it was nobody's fault never ever blame yourselves for moving xxx

Secondly I would say she probably died in her sleep so even if someone had of been there they wouldn't of heard anything xxx

I know of a few people who felt nothing leading up to it (their families have said) then collapsed and died there now if that be the case there was no pain for me I just felt really drunk then went down, then started being sick xxx

Stress can be involved in causing it raising blood pressure and things but everyone is different xxx

So sorry you lost your mum xxx

September 2002 and I had two aneurysms both clipped xxx

And in the first few months I experienced no pain no anxiety because I fell pregnant and everything I had went into that but then I had him and everything changed crippling anxiety headaches dizziness and nausea (which I still get now but no where near as frequent) xxx

Everybody is different no two sah and recovery are the same there maybe similarities but that's all xxx

Now drink plenty of water and try not to stress relax and do something everyday that makes you happy xxx

Hi Sammy Anne, your headaches will be worse because the stress you are under xxx

Why would you want to kill yourself, you know your daughter would be given to her father permanently so although your anxiety would go, your daughters would be through the roof xxx

Right drink plenty of water and relax whenever possible xxx

I have no medical training at all but speak with your Dr about any risks with antidepressants in the meantime just be with your daughter and have some fun together give her some happy memories of her childhood xxx

Hope things improve for you xxx 

Congratulations on two years xxx

Great news about scan results xxx

Hi Dave I get terrible headaches sometimes horrible xxx

I am glad you are speaking to someone in neurology however whilst you are waiting drink plenty of water and relax xxx

Hope the headaches ease soon xxx

Everytime weather changes I get dizzy headaches pressure and nauseous even 15yrs later xxx 

You get used to it xxx

Hi boom welcome to btg xxx

I had two bleeds one at about 22 another at 23 when I had the scan and was told there was an old bleed in there aswell turned out there was 2 aneurysms  had the one that ruptured at 23 clipped first then the other xxx

Now the other things 

1 memory problem with both at beginning now it's mainly short term memory 15yrs later 

2 Confidence and self esteem had none which is why I stayed where I wasn't happy but it's back now I take the kids on holiday alone to pubs for meals and out on day trips.

3 where/what your doing with your life does come back for me 5 years ago 

4 I hated going out wouldn't go anywhere especially alone and I go out with friends and look at 2 

5 the old me did die 15yrs ago but I prefer the new me now I didn't to begin with I hated her for years but now i am happy

6 I don't drink as when I was blue lighted to hospital they were treating me with hangover from 7th to 11th September with delayed treatment till 13th as hospital needed proper scans so put me off alcohol. I go out though and still have a great time you don't need alcohol to enjoy yourself

Anyway hope things get better for you and keep us updated on how you are doing xxx 

Hi there welcome to btg I have had 2 children since but I had aneurysms and they were both clipped in your case I would definitely listen to the Drs xxx 

Physio no need to say anymore they think they know everything mine told me you never had a sah just a little aneurysm I took my notes haven't even tried to count all the pages there is lots xxx

I was improving six seven years later and still am 15yrs later so never listen to what they say xxx

Sorry you are still suffering I still get headaches and dizzyness after 15yrs but not as bad xxx

You need to go back to your Dr and tell them the medication isn't working try white tiger balm (speak to your Dr first) but I just rub some on my head and the pain goes xxx

Dizzyness maybe ask your Dr to give you some tablets for labyrinthitis that may be causing your problems (but the tablets mine prescribed could be used for different dizzyness problems) xxx

Anyway hope they give you something to help xxx

Steve hope your feeling better soon xxx

In my early days it sometimes used to take me a week to recover from a full day rest and drink water xxx

Hi Laura good to see you hope you are well xxx 

Keith lovely to hear from you hope you are well xxx

Welcome to btg kerryn hope things keep improving at the rate they are but don't be alarmed if recovery slows down or you seem to be going backwards because that does happen in the first few months xxx

Please keep us updated with how you are getting on xxx

Welcome to btg Jenn xxx

It's early days for your husband day five he is doing exceptionally well to be walking try not to worry in six months I had two brain operations and had returned to work but everyone is different xxx

Hi kindra welcome to btg xxx

The reason drinking water is important after sah

Headaches

Headaches are common after a subarachnoid haemorrhage, but they tend to ease over time. They are not as painful as when you had your haemorrhage, and you should be able to control them with over-the-counter painkillers, such as paracetamol.

Drinking plenty of fluids, as well as avoiding alcohol and caffeine, can also reduce the severity and frequency of these headaches.

Hope you continue to improve xxx

Myra i get that feeling in my temple its muscles contracting had it for 15 years now headaches nausea dizziness have these also xxx

My legs quite often feel weak and feel like I am walking on clouds I really wouldn't panic listen to the neurosurgeon but don't panic as that sounds like it could be anxiety to me xxx

Hope things improve soon but don't panic because it makes everything seem worse xxx

Welcome to btg sorry you are still struggling but it is early days for you drink plenty of water and rest whenever you need to xxx

I am so sorry that they treated you the way they did in hospital hope things improve for you soon xxx
