Hi Broken Wing,
I have ACM1 as well. i did not have the problem you are having, after my MCA surgery I am leaking fluid. My surgeon said we will wait 3 more months to see if I heal, that is coming up this month. I just noticed this ACM/MCA, they are opposite.
I had my surgery in 2002, if you have any questions, please feel free to email me. I am unable to give my email address **

Good luck to you,

James
