  1. Thankyou Mel and Jay for your replies. Like you Mel, in the first few years I also used to get "a feeling like an electric shock (or buzz) to my brain" where I felt like the earth had just tilted for a second or two. This disappeared over time but the other problem I mentioned is different to this. Thanks Jay for your message. Yes it does feel like pressure but my blood pressure is o.k. My G.P. has not sent me for any other tests as he's convinced it's 'an age thing'. Jill x
  2. Hi Karen & Gary, Thank you so much for your replies. My problem does sound similar to yours, Karen and I do hear the "white noise" as you do. I don't think it's anything to do with my heart, Gary, as I don't feel it beating or banging when I have this feeling in my head although the fazing in and out you describe does sound familiar. After many years of visiting my G.P. and getting nowhere I've learned to live with it but it does still bother me. I'll have to try and push him a bit more. Thank you both so much for your help.

  3. Brilliant site! Wish it had been around 13 years ago when I had my SAH. I made a good recovery although I still have problems with my memory, concentration, tiredness and hearing problems in my left ear. However, I’ve had a constant problem which I’m still concerned about and wondered if anyone else has had the same problem? I get a pulsating sensation in my head, my head feels 'full' and my hearing fades in and out lasting for anything between a few seconds to several minutes. Mostly it happens when I’ve been sitting for a while and stand up although it occasionally happens when I’m just sitting. Over the years my doctor has passed it off as an ‘age problem’ (I’m now 56) but I am convinced it still has something to do with my brain. I am particularly concerned as this sensation started three months before my brain haemorrhage and, in fact, immediately preceded the almighty headache when my SAH occurred. Has anyone else experienced this or can anyone help? Thanks, Jill x
  4. Hi everyone, Thank you so much for all your warm welcome messages. What a nice bunch Thanks for telling me about the support group in Nottingham. Unfortunately, I work on a Thursday evening but if I have a night off I'll go along. It's just great to have found this site as, after all these years, I still have unanswered questions! I do hope that I will also be able to offer support to others on the board. Best wishes, Jill xx
  5. Hi everyone What a brilliant site and forum. I had my SAH in February 1997 and wish this had been around then. Unfortunately, there wasn't much support around at that time and I felt quite isolated with the whole thing. It must be reassuring for you all to have this community to turn to. Although I made a very good recovery I still have problems with short term memory and concentration. I'd be interested to know if there is anyone else on these boards who had their SAH a long time ago and still has problems. Nice to find such a friendly site.
