Thanks everyone for your advice, I would like to say that I'm recovering extremely well and my life is slowly returning to some normality whatever that maybe. I still think myself very lucky and without the nagging wife who persuaded me to go to A&E I wouldn't be here . Thanks again for the support.

Hi everyone, as the title states I'm new to all this, actually it's the first time I've been really ill. Fortunately I suffered a SAH with a very little bleed and it has not affected any of my motor functions, vision, hearing or anything else all I have is a dull headache from it and the usual pain from post surgery. I am after a litte advice as everyone tells me I have to have at least 3 months off work and I cannot drive. I feel I could be back at work in a few weeks and to be honest I could drive now, but won't. This affects everyone in different ways and I will go mad off work for so long . Is there anyone out there to be as fortunate as myself and what was your recovery prognosis?

Andy thoughts are with you, I am very very lucky as none of my motor functions or anything has been affected by this I just have a severe headache

Hi everyone, I'm Brian I'm currently in Wessex Neurological Hospital having had a Sub Arac last Friday, at first I ignored it and thought it was a severe migraine Three days later I got convinced to go to A&E where I had a scan and was told I had a bleed. I was taken to Southampton and on the Monday had surgery. At first it was going to be an angiogram and coiling was going to be used, that didn't work and after 8 hours of surgery I had my head opened up and three aneurysms were clipped. Having my staples out tomorrow and hopefully will be home Monday. What a life changing incident more people need to be aware.
