G'day yerself Neville,
Glad you are in good shape otherwise so your healing energy can be
concentrated where you need it most.
When that huge blood collection is gone they are sure to find a
comparable sized brain whereas, as stated, my bleed was a tiny one but
anyway praise be for small favors.

G'day Ron,
I had a few MRI's apparently, as other wires stuck all over my self,
hurts danged to get them off the hair again <g>, and CT scans, but
there was too blood in my brain for them to see where the bleed came
from. But a bonus is that looks like my lungs, kidneys, bladder,
heart and blah blah of other organs seem to be in pretty good shape.
I am not old of course being only 65, but I am pretty good it looks
like it. Another MRI in a couple of weeks, this may show my brain
again, if it's still there <g>.
Google is a wonder of thing, it helps me writing and spelling and
remembering words, with not all letters give all words unfortunately.
I was normal once, now I am a numpty for a while now...LOL.
I think I said that I could have been a lot worse seemingly, but I
definitely believe my daily silver regimen done good something over
years. They gave me Epilepsy drug just in case I had any seizures,
but I didn't have any seizures, so I binned one tablet a few days ago
because they were doing my head in. Told the Doc later on and he said
OK, but I must take that last one at night until I have my MRI, then I
am going to bin that tablet regardless what another Doc says. But I
think he will say OK anyway.
I feel I am in perfect shape I reckon, nothing at all physical, exempt
my brain has gone for a little workabout for a while <g>. I had no
idea at the time, other than my speech went funny, although I probably
talk funny anyway some would say <g>, but pressure was over 200 to 230
apparently, and then a roller coast for several hours up and down,
that is why they chucked me on the Royal Flying Doctor Service plane
to fly me to the City hospital. There was nothing to indicate me
anything was wrong, I was doing my lock picking hobby in the morning,
but one of my daughters txt me on Fathers Day and just new something
was not right, I would have just stayed home otherwise. It's funny
how our body works? The human body is a fine tuned machine, and is
not to be messed with I guess, hence I will *still* never stop my
daily silver.
Glad to hear you are now OK Ron. This could happen with anyone,
regardless.

Hi Neville,
Of course CS had nothing to do with the hematoma .
In _May_ of this year I had a strange feeling in my left hand. I
ignored it for a couple of days but when I noticed a slight loss in
dexterity I went to the doc who decided to play it safe and get me an
MRI of the brain.
After the MRI they shuttled me right into emergency. Seems I had a
brain bleed (subdural hematoma).
It was very very small but I was admitted for CT scans and after a
couple of days I was speaking to a counselor about getting out of
there when in mid speech I suddenly became incoherent and I'm told
that my left face drooped. Next thing I new I was back on the gurney
with throwing up type convulsions that lasted for 5 minutes or so.
Anyhow after 3 more days and a final CT scan they discharged me. I had
no symptoms.
9 days later another CT scan showed the clot was almost gone and I am
fine today. As I said it was a very small bleed.
What caused it? I am pretty certain that it was a morning I had dry
heaves and was sticking my finger down my throat to feel better that
put a lot of pressure up there.
I do not take CS on a regular basis so absolutely not a factor.
You seem to be doing pretty good as it is but I'm sure that as the
brain heals you will be back to normal.
Best wishes,
Ron
