I’m coming up to my two year anniversary of my spontaneous subdural hematoma. In the first picture, looking back-you can see how much pain I was in.
I spent 6 weeks trying to find an answer as to why my head was hurting so much. It progressively got worse over the months and a half. It took three dr visits to finally get a CT scan. By this point, it was acute on top of a chronic bleed, 18 mm thick and shifted my brain 14 mm to the left.
On this eve of my 48th solar return, I’m still so surprised that I survived. I definitely notice a difference in my cognitive function now, but that could also just be my age 🤪
