Seriously 5.5cm ? That's huge, over 2 inches. Hopefully it remains stable for the rest of your natchBrother's a paramedic and he explained how serious a burst on the heart artery is, best of luck to you
You doing OK though ?
30mm !!! Jesus wept blows my mind that, good to hear your doing OK![]()
Yeah I think so, I've had 4 coils fitted and just finished the 21 days of heavy drugs, thinners, opioids etc and now on Thiamine, paracetamol, ibu etc.
Literally woke up day before my weeks holiday was about to begin, felt ok and soon as I was upright boom, I knew straight away it was an hemorrhage. Lost all feeling below my left knee during the episode (thankfully I'm not paralyzed and everything's working ok now) car Paramedic turned up in minutes thankfully and got me to resus before being transferred to a reginal NRTU where I was for two weeks. I'm out now obviously and just taking it easy, still got a big couple of weeks without the big drugs which is scary considering that a second bigger turn sometimes happens. Just got to go easy I guess, bit heady.
Spoke to my nurse who rings me twice a week today infact, they are pleased with my progress. I can drive again in another 4 weeks(assuming no other episodes) which is great. I've also bizarrely developed a liking for chocolate which is something I never really did. I told the nurse and she laughed, apparently its not uncommon. I said I've eaten more chocolate in 3 weeks than I have in five years.
Anyway Stumps, just gotta take it easy for 12 weeks or so, Like me a Few lifestyle changes and yous will get through this mate.
