snootybutnice Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 (edited) One of the girls on here mentioned earlier that the charge nurse told her: "February and October are 'aneurysm season' and they are very busy with patients who have suffered a SAH. Something to do with air pressure changes. So neuro units do have exceptionally busy times". Unquote! Please give the date of your SAH - it would be interesting to see if there is a similar pattern with people on here. As a start, here's mine: ******29th January****** (just a whisker away from "the season"!). Nic xx RESULTS SO FAR ---------------------- January - 4 February - 4 (LizD noted a further 7 patients admitted in Feb with SAH) March -1 April May - 3 June - 1 (+ 1 aneurysm with no bleed) July - 2 August - 4 September - 4 October - 2 November - 5 December - 4 Info taken up to teechur post Edited March 19, 2012 by snootybutnice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandi K Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Interesting! I didn't have a burst aneurysm I had a leaky blood vessel and it was November 10th. Sandi K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill B Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Hi Nic. Interesting idea, but I don't think there is such a thing as an aneurysm season, mine was January, my sister's was July. I think it's all chance. Bill B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawnS Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 (edited) Morning Mine was in August, but Mum's was October. I survived, she didn't so I'm just wondering on the flip side, are there months when you are more likely to survive?

Super Mario Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Mine was 4th February 2004, but I am sure it was because some idiot child threw a ball of ice at me indoors and it hit me on the head where my anni was. Who knows, it may never have burst or it may have done in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liz D Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 My aneurysm burst on 10 February and I actually went to work the next day. It refilled and burst again on 14 February. When I was admitted to the Edinburgh Western on 15th, there were another 4 admitted the same day with a SAH and 3 more the next day. One lady from Aberdeen another lady from Dundee and I don't know about the other 2 ladies. Funnily enough it was 3 men admitted on 16th. Edinburgh Western covers the whole of the east side of Scotland. There are more causes as to why an aneurysm bursts. But what I was told was it's when the autumn starts to change to winter and winter starts to change to spring, then Edinburgh is very busy. In Scotland these changes usually happen in February and the end of October, hence why they are so busy. Because I was quite lucid through out my stay and needed a nurse by my bed, the charge nurse would sit with me (during staff coffee breaks and meal breaks)and talk to me about SAH, it's effects etc. We used to have some very interesting chats!

Karen Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 My sentinel bleed was in December and the next SAH was in July, 4 years later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
