Hi. My name is Carina. Two months ago my Mom suffered a brain aneurysm on her brain stem. After 36 hours we were in hospital #3. Finally got clipped after a series of screw ups from various hospitals. After week 4,mom had to have a VP shunt placed after hydrocephalus kicked in. She is now in a rehab hospital (not a good one either). We've been with her day and night since this all started. She continues to be nauseous and frequently feels like she's about to vomit. Nobody seems to know why!!! I'm so frustrated!!! Is this nausea common?? She also suffered meningitis and pneumonia in hospital #3.
