Hi Myratas

Hi Myratas

I had a 30 minute follow up appointment with neurologist three months after my SAH. I made out a list of questions but really I didn't get specific answers as he didn't know whether my symptoms would improve. He seemed to be a man of very few words so it was a bit of a non-event. I then went on to have my check angiogram a few weeks later.

Hope yours goes well.

Best wishes

Anne

I think all follow up's seem to be different, although writing your questions down is a great idea, my first one was a bit of a none event really, got myself into such a state not knowing what to expect and it was few questions frew me little from him lets organize an angio and that was that I knew about my appointmen 3months in advance not a good thing.....

Take care

Hey there

I saw my neuro guy in March 07 after my first follow up MRI in February 07. I took a list of questions and asked him each one - he was very good and answered them all the best he could. He did some balance tests on me and hearing/sight tests to see if anything else had been affected. After my MRI in the Feb I received a letter saying that they were so pleased with the way the artery had healed that they were delaying the MRi I was due to have in August last year until August this year.

I think every consultant will have a different way of assessing/advising etc, prepare some questions to take with you - it can't hurt to be prepared.

Let us know how you get on

Take care
