I was admitted to the ER on June 23rd for emergency craniotomy brain surgery. I was brought back to life by doctors and woke up 3 days later in the ICU. All I remember is severe migraines, vomiting, and blacking out. All I know is I stayed in the ICU for 9 days, two days in a regular room, and I'm back home now. The symptoms after my surgery include loss of memory, hard time concentrating, loss of balance, etc. By the grace of God, I have all my physical and mental abilities, and I'm here to use this as a part of my testimony. Idk what God has in store for me. I plan to continue to ask for strength from up above

I met with an accident at October 28 .my surgery ( craniectomy)done on same day . I was ventilated an have no sense for 3 days .further I was in ICU for 4 days and 8 days at normal room .I feel little pain on back side of head and nerves of my neck side . After one month I was under gone cranioplasty . After cranioplasty surgery I feel much better and no any pains on the back of head . Thanks for all doctors

Recovery time depends on many factors: the type of operation, age of the patient, immunity strength, etc...5 years after my brain tumor surgery and long difficult period of revalidation i still haven't fully recovered...the best is to go with the flow, stay optimistic and live as healthily as possible...

I'm in week two of recovery and I'm happy as the resection was a life saver and bought me more time. I can't express how difficult recovery is without excercise. I really wish there was more I could be doing than just laying in bed.

Life after craniotomy is very difficult n different but very huuuge thanks to god that he saved my life for my only daughter n my small cute family😊

Sorry to hear this. My condolences

I need to have one either this month or next month. This video is very helpful :)

I had this after a bad case of bacterial meningitis, I was in the hospital for 3 weeks, 1 week of NICU and another 2 weeks learning to walk and then a month of antibiotics through a picc line. Through Emory university

Yes i also having severe head aches n lso depressed many timez but i always go to the way to god n had a patience on that way😊

I was diagnosed with a cavernoma in 2009 at age 22 went through 5 brain surgery’s and had a vp shunt installed in my 4th ventricle I am 38 today I am mentally and emotionally broken I am physically disabled and wish that the cavernoma took my life I have been barely existing for the last 15 years and pray for death there is no hope if you have a cavernous malformation even if you survive the surgery

My sister operated 3 days back... So feared

I was about to drive after 10 days. Obviously, everyone is different, but, waiting until 8 weeks to drive or work is abnormally long per other medical posts.

Does anyone know how to prevent brain tingling after surgery? My mom has brain tingling and she says it’s extremely uncomfortable

My wife had a craniotomy in June after months of severe migraines. She had clotting on the right side of her brain and had it removed. She still suffers from headaches almost daily. If anyone else has been in this situation or is going through it currently is there any advice that you can give me ? I feel helpless watching her go through this on a daily basis and all the nurses say is that it’s normal.

Help… Does a person who suffered a hemorrhagic stroke and underwent Craniectomy surgery, resulting in paralysis and speech loss, still retain their pre-stroke identity? Is the 'old' them still inside but now live in a way where they can’t express the sleeve like they used to ? Or it’s a “ new “ them?

Hi! I survived a hemorrhagic stroke by the Grace of God. I can walk, speak clearly, think clearly, no paralysis but I have left eye peripheral vision challenges. I have the blues sometimes but I use positive self-talk & breath work& I listen to music and binaural beats for brain synchronization with headphones. I have a therapist who’s a huge help. May God heal us all ! Thank you Abba. Thank you brother Yeshua♥️ whose name I called over and over nd who rescued me 🙏🏽Thank you sweet brother. 😊I’ve begun to feel like my old self again, today is May 2, 2024. It’s been more than two months since the hem stroke event (February 14,2024. Heart attack was Feb 4, 2024) I say to myself: I am healed, I have a miraculous body. God bless you all!

@@cathygreen-miner8050 did u go thru craniectomy surgery? I’m really trying to find out. I have a friend that suddenly had a stroke and went thru the surgery where they opened his skull to reduce damage from the blood bleeding. He suffered the whole right body paralysed now and is unable to talk and communicate. I really want to know if he can think like before? Is the brain cells damaged and he doesn’t know or he knows but is trapped in the current body? Isn’t it super hard that he can’t talk and move by himself anymore? It pains me to think about it.

A wound that's healing can produce a clear or pink fluid. An infected wound can produce a yellowish, bad-smelling fluid called pus. When fluid seeps from a wound, it is called wound drainage.

avoid cranioplasty if possible because: you will have a foreign body sensation in the head, a state of accentuated fatigue, headaches, etc.
