Thank you Kim for your testimony.!!!
I just heard you say that it would be helpful to have a brochure for carers! I sooo could use that!
❤ i had a haemorrhagic stroke and im very grateful for the surgery .the other wasn't an option ..5 hours in royal Melbourne hospital. Then 6 months in rehabilitation . I can remember some of it especially the nasogastric tube being inserted ..interesting story..xx I didn't know about the jaw muscle . I had half of my hair chopped off . My sister cut it all off ..being a rehabilitation nurse it was very interesting being on the other side of the bed ..
Have one coming up next week on the 22nd. Thank you for sharing!
I have had 3 crainiotomies in the past 2.5 years. My most recent 2 months ago, The edema in my head caused a 15 mm midline shift. My faith in Jesus is the only reason why i'm still here.
Yes lights have affected me grateful for living in a dark community ..
Meaning street lights minimal.
I totally agree with this video. I had my craniotomy to remove a baseball sized meningioma and they didnt really tell me what to expect post surgery. I don’t know what is worrysome and what is normal really. I have this pressure on the top of the head where my tumor was and it throbs. But I don’t know if this is just part of the recovery process. Also my blood pressure has been higher and my heart rate sometimes is higher. I still get dizzy and blurry vision.
My child was just diagnosed. She’s a single mom with 2 children and she lives out of state. How can I help? What things to do presurgery to put things in place?
I'm having one march 1st I'm terrified
Me too
How was surgery? Was it a meningioma?
Are you ok?
is it possible to have nerve pain 7 years i am havin excrutiating pain in my jaw in my head! and my neurologist keeps telling me it’s nerve pain and i pic headaches
I wish I had the opportunity to low what was about to happen to me, didn't have a tumor but Blood clot and 2yrs nowafterwarrds still down with stroke, seizures, girlfriend took daughter and moved to another place, couldn't get a job,fully blind in one eye, lost peripheral vision in the other eye, having memory loss and had to go back to home country for traditional medicine, sometimes I wish I never had to go through it
Had emergency one last month, was super painful. Blurry vision ,ripped breathing tube out, was restrained. Going bk next month to get bone bk
How long did the pain last
Did you have a craniotomy?
Did you have to take steroids prior to the surgery
I wish I would have seen this before my second surgery. I can agree Drs don’t say the outcome after surgery. I wish I was told I would feel the sharp pains in my skull. It hurts when I yawn. The inside of my head hurts like if something is pinching me really hard. If I could go back and cancel my surgery I would have.
