:lol:Once again just want to say a massive thanks to all those who have replied. im sure you all know and understand how helpful this is. Occupational health have been in touch to get permission to speak to my neurosurgeon and my GP. All your advice is helping me to plan my meeting with them and make sure they are prepared to give me the support i need. My work colleagues and management have been great so far. i hope they understand my phased return may take longer than we thought. Karen Once again a huge Thank You xx

:shock:Hi everyone Karen here and needs your help or advice based on your experiences. My SAH was on 29th Sep 2010. I had two aneurysms, one clipped and one clipped and wrapped Ive seen the surgeon on the 6th Dec he seemed happy with my progress. On Dec31st I recieved another appointment with a different consultant for the 17th Feb. Is this normal? Should I ring and ask why he wants to see me? Ive also planned to return to work on 14th Feb on a phased return. I have to see occupational health before this. What should I be asking for? Reading the threads lots of people seemed to have had problems. Im worried as i am an assisstant headteacher at a demanding school. I love my job or should I say I loved my job but Im now worried I am not going to be able to cope. Does anyone have any stories to tell me of how they found their return to work easier than they thought??? sorry for being so demanding-having a bit of a panic day!! Karen x

I just want to say thankyou to all those who have made such welcoming comments. I know this site and the people on it are really going to help-Karen

Louise You have already given me hope so it is 11 years since your SAH, have you been well in those years and how long was it before you regained your confidence. Sorry for being so nosey. K

Hello everyone. My name is Karen 48. I had a SAH on the 28th Sept 2010. The surgeon who opened up my brain was expecting to find two annies, a small one they were not worried about and a large one which they expected to have caused the bleed. In fact it was the small one that had bled, they clipped that. The large one hadn't bled. It was unusual in its shape and walls( trust me) They decided to wrap and clip it. I also have EDS 3 which they think may have contributed!!!!! I do not know much about wrapping and would welcome any info?? Although I have tried to feel really positive and of course "lucky" I am begining to feel anxious that it will happen again, IS this madness? Should I just be getting on with life? I would welcome any advice. Thanks for reading this.
