  1. I am someone I don't recognize in a hundred ways. My SAH and coiling was done in what the Dr describes as an irritable spot. It has been 5 months and my emotional changes are getting worse. I hate this person I've become and it tears me to pieces to know its happening and realize I have 0 control over it. I'm angry, panicked, irritable, unrealisticlly nutty for lack of a better term. My nerves are shot and soon if something doesn't change I'll have no family left.
  2. Do many of you or did you experience the rage??? Just after my operation (hours) I subjected my husband to a brutal & harsh count of memories, many from years & relationships before him. I called him names and said horrible things but I'm still not positive on the extent as I'm afraid to ask. Still almost 2 months later I'm angry and unsure I understand why. It's so intense and its not quite like me
  3. I suppose that's not all... They have been unsuccessful in getting my BP down and I still range 160's/120 so tomorrow I will see a BP specialist at the ambulatory center in Hamilton. They also fear heart issues and I'm scheduled for an Echo on Friday. One aneurism continued to have fluid flowing into it after coiling so I've been told the chance of impacted coil is high and may need recoiling in a month or two. I'm not myself and that scares me. I confuse easily just cutting some cheese for my kids, far from the multi tasker I was. My headaches have continued and vary in severity most are pretty awful.
  4. Hi Everyone! On January 17th I experienced a brain bleed and in hospital they found 2 aneurysms which I had coiled. My hospital stay was only 2 weeks (although it felt like a lifetime to me). My effects have not been horrible honestly. My mind is fuzzy and my short term isn't what it was... I have my memories though and motor skills. I know I'm lucky but I'm terrified, angry, frustrated and in general I don't feel I appreciate how lucky I was. I even continue to smoke ... I'm confused and lonely in my recovery which led me here. Not sure what else to do for myself.
