Tony it's lovely to hear how you are doing I really hope you continue to improve. Jess.xxx

Hi I used to do that all the time. Hope your headaches and dizziness calm down it really does get better with time Jess.xxx

I would have to agree with penny however everything makes me feel worse than the rest of the family since sah so in the meantime don't panic rest drink plenty of water and most importantly relax xxx

You should demand to be took seriously I have started to do that as I often felt like they thought I was mad. Go back to the Dr's book two appointments back to back and tell them exactly how you feel. Hope things start to improve soon xxx

It's very early on in your mother's illness she needs time to recover Hope she starts to improve soon xxx I wasn't answering my family either I just used to lie there listening speak to her surgeon I am sure that they will be able to reassure you xxx

Congratulations on your wedding xxx Hope you have a lovely holiday xxx Keep in touch xxx

I also have this book I am in it however I found it very depressing lol haven't read it all and have no plans to read it in the future sorry. Jess.xxx

Hi there welcome to btg. So sorry you have to be here What an amazing attitude you have about everything you are going through I know how frightened I was when I first found out about mine. Have you thought about getting a second opinion you are young so you have youth on your side, my aneurysm was bleeding for a whole week before I got my operation, just a thought. I hope your wedding goes well and anything at all you want to ask just ask I am sure someone will have some advice. Anyway must get some sleep as it's 3.12am. Jess.xxx

Hi I still get headaches and dizziness and sometimes the pain is really bad but they prescribed 10mg of amitriptyline and it does work a bit. Hope your pain goes soon. Jess.xxx

Hi there like penny said you must go to the Dr's however if they are like mine you may have a wait so get some tiger balm or vicks vapour rub (they are more or less the same) and put it where the pain is it relieves my pain practically instantly and you can use it with other medication (HOWEVER PLEASE CHECK THAT YOU CAN) sorry for the capitals but needed to make sure everyone understood that you must check with Dr before using anything. I still get neck pain and I am 12yrs in xxx

Sarah lou hope you're feeling better today we have all been through it don't let it get you down xxx

Welcome to btg xxx I hope you find everything your searching for look forward to chatting with you soon. Jess.xxx

Never feel bad for seeing the doctor they are paid a very good wage to see us. Drink plenty of water try not to worry because it only makes it worse xxx

I was they were saying it was a hangover from the Saturday morning till the Wednesday night then they transferred me when they found blood in the spinal fluid. My mom did write a letter of complaint but never received a reply and I told her to forget it. Jess.xxx

Hi I am 12yrs in and was only given amitriptyline last year but still suffering with some pain and dizziness even now, however I was only given 10mg and told to up it to 30 if needed but as of yet I haven't I am thinking of trying something else xxx

Lie on the floor back flat lift one leg off the floor and hold it for 10 seconds then do the other one hold it as long as you can. It will strengthen your muscles and also pelvic muscles it worked for me xxx I

Firstly Stephen sorry I moved it from the green room as I felt noone would answer there because people go there to write what they are doing today and things xxx Anyway I am not a doctor but I would get a second opinion the reason for this is my dad's mate had a brain scan for headaches (showed nothing wrong) However he recently started going blind only for a few seconds at a time (still not nice) but his new brain scan is different showing about five tia's, so if your scan is no different from five years ago I would say you haven't had a tia in the last five years. But like I say I am not a doctor but go and get a second opinion and good luck. Jess.xxx

Hannah hope everything goes well on Wednesday please keep us updated. Jess.xxx
