Mike2023 Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Hi all, I have become very interested in finding out the reason for my NASAH. Probably a vain hope I know but previous concussions affected my life significantly and after the NASAH I find myself wanting answers more than ever so I just have to try. My query is this: While I was in the Neuro ward in hospital I chatted with other patients. I mentioned that I have had two quite serious concussions in my life, the last around 8yrs ago. Three of the four men I chatted to had also had concussions previously. A very narrow poll I know but nevertheless... I wondered if any others here have suffered this sequence of events and would like to contribute to my very unscientific query? Many thanks Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Mario Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Now that is an interesting question. Although it appears there is no rhyme or reason for NASAH it does make one wonder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClareM Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 I once had a conversation with a brain surgeon about my NASAH. He said it was more than likely caused by an aneurysm that blew itself out leaving nothing to see on the angiograms I had. My bleed was very large and caused hydrocephalus too requiring a temporary EVD. I have never had any previous history of concussion.

Mike2023 Posted September 16, 2023 Author Share Posted September 16, 2023 Thank you both. Clare, That's pretty much what one of the Consultants said about my NASAH, though I didn't get into the concussion history with them it didn't feel right to take up their time.

Swishy Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 The doctors told me that they couldn't find a cause for me ...they didn't see a sac that would have indicated an aneurysm but it was still possible it could have been. As for concussions never had one that I was aware of but rode horses growing up and took many a tough tumble. I have issues with my neck that the doctor suspects happened as a child, so who knows.
