Well I will quickly summ up my last posting. I have been being treated for Migraines for 2 years no relief.. so I changed PCP's she treated me also for migranies for a BIt then sent me to a nerologist.. he did I MRO for a MASS . I was referred to a nero surgeon in Miland ( he was suppose to be good but to ME he was a QUACK) so I went back to my local nelogist he sent me to the U of M..
so U of M says I NEED 2 surgeons so the surgerons are getting together to get me a date. the MASS is between my 2 caroid arteries with the brain stem on the back side.. near the optic nerve. so off to the Dominoe Farms I went for pre op testing.. so now tomorrow I get the surgery dat. Surgery will be a MINIMUM of 6 hours but they figure all day.
I will be in the hospital 2-3 days BUT if the brain stem leaks then 5-6 days..
so there's the scoop..
OH the surgeons at U of M were wonderful!!

Well NOW I have to do a Stress test on the 6th for a heart clearance .. I will put fire under my heart docs butt so the report gets to U of M in time. He knows about my issues because they were not sure if the headaches were heart or head related they checked the heart with a TEE and that was fine so then they went aggressively testing the head and found the Mass.
But he a good heart doc so I'm sure he'll get it done!! he better right?? LOL
