Hi
 

I have not.......You are right the wait can be quite challenging. Best wishes with your surgery. I can say a prayer for you.

Sorry wasn't treated there and yes the wait is terrible but at least they know about it and the op will be over soon. Jess

Mary,
The wait for surgery is hard. Remember it well. Are you having the aneurysms clipped? If you are I wanted to say that I thought the surgery would be much worse than it was. I woke up from surgery in little pain. I slept a lot and my mind was pretty foggy. I under-estimated recovery time. Brains are slow healers. Coiling is suppose to be less traumatic than clipping with faster healing. Hang in there......Sarah

Surgery Anxiety
 

I've had two aneurysms clipped. I agree w/ Sarah that the actual surgery's a breeze. Does take time to recuperate though and you'll likely have some interesting experiences along the way!

Consider yourself hugged. :hug:
