I am so glad I found this group. I had an SAH April 2014. No explanation no reason. I also had a subsequent seizure that followed. I went to the ER with the first headache, spent 3 days in ICU. They did a CTScan, and saw nothing, I think they missed it. Went away to Summer cottage 250 miles from home, bam.....byfar the worse headache, yeah that thunderclap one. Went to local community hospital, upon entering, I had a Grand Mal Seizure, they did CTScan and saw the bleed. I was transferred to larger hospital, spent 3 days there, I wanted to get home, was put on nimodipine for 21 days and some pain meds, drove home, and went to neurologist. He sent me directly to hospital. Did CTScan, and MRI/MRA. Signed consent forms for surgery, I was so happy when the neurosurgeon came in and did an angiogram first, phew, dodged the bullet on that one, there wasn't an aneurysm. They have no clue what caused the SAH. I still believe that it was from coughing, I had a horrible sinus infection and was coughing so bad when the first headache occurred. I have since had many headaches, not as bad, had a repeat MRI and Angiogram just a few months ago. Everything neurological looks good, however, I am now having major Tinnitus and can not get any relief. Anyone know of a connection between a SAH and Tinnitus? I sometimes also have a hard time getting my words out. Seems my thoughts are there, but I can not get them out as fast as I used to.
