tennissmithy Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Hi all Forgive me if someone has already posted this. I saw this whilst working away in Oldham earlier this week. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-1344274/Actress-28-told-survival-chances-non-existent-brain-bleed-fully-recovers.html?ito=feeds-newsxml And I thought they took long enough (8 days) to diagnose mine!!!

Super Mario Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 She was under the same neuro surgeon as me and some others on here. I hope life treats her kindly from now onwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KelBel Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Blimey she was lucky too! Hadn't seen that story before... No wonder her op was touch and go, mine was 8 days post-SAH and caused severe vasospasm because of the time lapse... it's amazing that she was acting out being on her death-bed, and she was actually experiencing so much pain at the time too!?

ninja Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Hi All She is a very lucky lady and thank God she's OK but I am sure I have read on this site many who have been misdiagnosed for longer. This is not a boast and I consider myself very very lucky but was misdiagnosed for 21 days. I'm not looking for sympathy as the best present I ever had was to survive. The odds I was given was a third die, a third are very severley disabled and a third survive. I believe its still true that neurologists are still not 100 per cent confident in the cause and recovery from aneurysms. I AM NOW ON MY 5TH ANNIVERSARY in 3 days time. I was coiled on Friday 13th January 2006 so Friday 13th is my lucky day!!! Cheers All:-D:-D:-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules75 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Gosh,very harrowing to read,so lovely to hear of her good recovery and going back to her job,acting on stage . Mr lovely Patel,my surgeon,my hero.Yet again he's performed wonders bless him. So jealous of her going back to work it's the one thing I long to do.
