SWing'R Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 (edited) This RFP is for a serious issue currently going on with yours truly.My facebook friends are probably already aware of it.I saw my family doc last week for some severe migraines I started having.Doc sent me for a head CT scan last Friday. Doc called me a few hrs after the scan (never a good sign) to let me know the scan revealed a "issue" in my right cerebellum, ironically, the area of my migraines.Doc explains the images indicate a possible AVM (arteriovenous malformation), a life-threatening condition that usually produces aneurysms. Doc refers me to a neurosurgeon for a consultation.Neuro doc explains that the image is only a preliminary assumption and that a AVM is the worse case scenario and that it could be a venous angioma, also referred to as a "developmental venous anomaly" (DVA) which is NOT life-threatening and actually doesn't really even require any treatment. A avm on the other had requires treatment, usually brain surgery to have it removed.Neuro doc has me scheduled for a MRI tomorrow and a Angiogram next week. Both tests are required to determine for sure what the situation is.Please keep me and my family in your prayers and thoughts and crossyour fingers that it's a DVA and not a AVM!Obviously I'll keep you guys posted as I get information.And for now, "really" don't make me angry, cause my head might "really" explode (my attempt at lightening the mood) Edited April 1, 2011 by SWing'R 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
