New to this group!

I had a cerebellar hemorrhage on August 7, 2023. Completely out of the blue, yet extremely humbling and life-changing! Looking to connect with others who had a similar experience.

Thank you!

Welcome to our group! I’m similar to you, in 2016 I had suddenly discovered I had an AVM and what and AVM was, and a journey began! John

Thank you, John! To have my life upended has been a lot to digest. I am expecting that, with time, things will be more manageable.

Take care,
Kristin

Hello @Kpsy2008 , it’s nice to meet you. I joined this group a few weeks ago. I had a cerebellar AVM hemorrhage in March 2022, and it took me almost 2 months to even properly understand what had happened! And you don’t want to lose the rhythm of your normal life, but you can’t avoid a major disruption.

I remember silently freaking out when, after 2 weeks in the hospital, my neurosurgeon told me I would need to take 1 month off work to recover. It’s funny to think about now, since I had to take several months off work, and I’m still recovering, over 3 years later. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Anyway, I’m sure plenty of people can commiserate with you here!
