6 years since my SAH aged 50.Headache for a couple of weeks. Went to GP, hospital, GP again I knew there was something wrong
,But just got pain killers.Finally I collapsed at work while fitting some poor woman's kitchen.Gave her a bit of a fright.
In to hospital. Coil in. 3 months off work,which i now know was not long enough.
Back at work I had trouble understanding drawings which I had to work from,sometimes I couldn't recall everyday words
and had bad headaches.One year later the hospital told me I had Horner's Syndrome Which is something to do with my eyes.
I no longer do that sort of work. I'm doing something less stressful.
I'm fitter than ever. I've lost weight, stopped smoking, take exercise and drink very little.However my memory is getting
awful. I have to write everything down.I can't recall what has been said a couple of minutes ago and repeat a task I did only 5 minutes ago. I've set off to drive some where only to find I'm heading in a different direction. This really annoys
my wife.
That's my history, better than many. Just have to get on top of the memory thing.
Good luck to all.
