I'm scared to have it done, scared not to, ugh!! I've been through so much already, I'm afraid if I don't go, and there's something still wrong, and if I do go and there's something wrong...ugh, again!! Feeling anxious...any help out here would be much appreciated...love you all...Laurie

I had 2 craniotomies, not coilings, but have had several angiograms. If you are having them at Barnes, which is where I had mine,I slept through the procedure every time. They were able to use some kind of patch afterward and I didn't have to lay still for as long. I made the mistake of trying to go to work the day after I had one of them. I should have stayed home and rested, because I was miserable and in quite a bit of pain from standing by the end of the day. The worst thing was the stress of waiting to get the test done. Rose
