Loose Wires Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 It's five years since my SAH and same-day coiling. Whilst I've been really, really lucky, I've learned to cope with a naggingly persistent, low-grade headache, the common afternoon down-to-the-bone-marrow fatigue and a number of the cognitive challenges that many of us face. Folk around me, especially family, have come to terms with my occasional excessive grumpiness, my inability to multi-task (I was never much good at that!), my hit-or-miss memory and the late afternoon appointments with my pillow! Now retired with plenty to look forward to, I keep myself busy with bits of lightweight volunteering, walking and watching sport. Best wishes to everyone as we continue with our recoveries.

kempse Posted November 4, 2019 Posted November 4, 2019 Dear Loose Wires - just love the name! Congratulations on your 5th anniversary yesterday. Hopefully there is still room for a bit more recovery regarding those niggling things you mention. It's my 11th anniversary in a few days and I still have those afternoon appointments with my pillow most days! Best wishes, Sarah
