Eitan,

It’s great to hear from you. I hope you get a good recovery. I had a DAVF flowing into my right transverse sinus, and I had a diminution of my right TVS. My embolization was to block off the arteries rather than “lose” my right TVS.

My experience is here: [My Update - Dural AVF Embolization](https://avmsurvivors.org/t/my-update-dural-avf-embolization/16916/22)

I had headaches for a while but it got better day by day. I had some dizziness that hung around for a loooong time and my head still doesn’t feel 100% right but I’m driving and living a normal life, so I hope you get to be at least as good as me (and why not?)

Very best wishes

Richard
