* least .
----------

Who? Obviously not you. You need to learn how to write.

Depends on age, overall physical condition, drive, extent of damage, adherence to recovery regimen, region of the brain affected, duration of the event, etc. There's a million variables, and there are no set answers- the brain is still fairly mysterious.  (+ info)

With a life support due to cerebral hemorrhage, Mom needs a bronchinal resection. What possible side effects?


My mother had a traffic accident three years ago. She couldn't walk properly. Three weeks ago, she fell down and had a cerebral hemorrhage. She was taken to hospital three hours later. It was late. Her left limbs couldn't move. She has been dependent on a life support device. Now her doctor suggests that she should undergo a bronchial resection. I do know that her conditions will last for a long time and that it means a huge amount of expense. Even if she does have the surgery, she is said to have little hope of full recovery. I wonder what the side effects of this resection will be. Please let me know.

P.S. She is suffering from diabetes and hypertension.

I am very sorry to hear about your mother. I agree with the other poster. It is time to sit down with her doctor(s) and have a serious discussion about your goals for your mother's care. Are you hoping for a cure or do you just want to keep her comfortable? If you just want to keep her comfortable, will the surgery help her do that? I am not sure what a bronchinal resection is, but if it is a tracheotomy, some people think that it does keep people more comfortable on life support...others think it just prolongs suffering. It is a very difficult situation, and I hope you are able to come to a decision that is right for your mom and for your family. Take care.  (+ info)

Usual procedure for a diagnosed cerebral hemorrhage.?


I wanted to know what is the usual procedure for someone who's been diagnosed with a cerebral hemorrhage (i.e. observation, surgery...) and also what are the chances of recovering from one.
----------

it depends on the situation of the intra-cranial pressure, if there is an increase in the Intracranial pressure this is consider and a medical emergency and should be lowered by Hyperventilation and diuretics ..
if there is focal neurological manifestations ( cause by blood pressing on brain ) this blood must be evacuated surgically
if there is no focal neurological manifestation,and there is no change in mental status , no singes of increase intra cranial tension so observation will be the answer ,,,  (+ info)

My friends´ grandmother had cerebral hemorrhage :( What´s the best way to make her feel better or at least?


to show my empathy?

My grandfather also had it, and I know how tough it is, and I don´t want to hurt her feelings :'(
----------

Dear Neue,

The best way to show empathy is just to be there for your friend. Let her know that you know she's worried. Ask how she's feeling. Let her talk. That's the biggie. Let her talk. Then let her know that you understand. That's what empathy is all about.

Alternatively, if she doesn't want to talk about it, just be there to talk about other stuff. She might be so overwhelmed that it would do her good to discuss other things. See which direction she seems inclined to go, and then take her cue.

I wouldn't go overboard telling about your experience with your grandfather's illness, especially if he didn't do well. If he recovered, then that might be a good way to give her hope.

Lastly, I'd like to say that your friend is very lucky to have a friend like you, who cares enough to try to give the very best support at this time.

Good for you,
searcher  (+ info)

"a massive cerebral hemorrhage" isn't that a stroke?


i looked up "death of Franklin D roosevelt"...and that's what i found for cause of death.....isnt a hemorrage a bruse? and a bruse in your brain; isn't that a stroke?
----------

A bruise inside of your brain can be caused from a stroke or a subdural hematoma.
Strokes are usually caused by a ruptured vessel which causes hemmorhage or a clot or plaque stuck in the vessel which clogs off the blood supply to a portion of the brain]
PS: I took human cadaver disection and a stroke on a cadaver brain looks like a big bruise on a mushroom.  (+ info)

Can Getting Excited Right Before Cause An Cerebral Hemorrhage (Aneurysm)?


Can Getting Excited Right Before Cause An Cerebral Hemorrhage (Aneurysm) ? My dad had one and had hypertension but we didn't know about it. I was just wondering my dad got excited right before he got dizzy then a bad headache and about 30 mins later lost conciousness and never regained it . I was just wondering if his getting excited might have triggered it? Thank You
----------

No, I believe his other comorbidities were a trigger. His previous medical history, and his genetic make up was greatly linked to this aneurysm.. Bulging aneurysm can put pressure on the nerve or surrounding brain tissue (poss. cause of his dizziness). People who have Cerebral aneurysms usually have a circulatory problem, polycystic kidney disease, or an AVM(arteriovenous malformation). Other causes are HYPERTENSION, tumors, atherosclerosis, head trauma, smoking, and drug abuse.

Don't feel singled out--brain aneurysms can happen to anyone, at anytime; usually adults (usually 30-60 years old). A person may have an aneurysm and never know it their entire life, it is only when it bursts that it is dangerous. (loss of consciousness due to bleeding on the brain).  (+ info)

73 yo woman suffers a severe cerebral hemorrhage. Dz of which abd. organ may contribute to this?


Her blood work reveals that her blood clotting ability is impaired.
----------

A cerebral hemorrhage is, simply put, bleeding in the brain.
The patient could have been on a blood thinning medicine to avoid blood clots in her legs/etc. Many elderly people are inactive-they sit most of the day. Clots can form in their legs and travel to their lungs or brains. In some cases, the blood thinning medicines can lead to bleeding problems, inability to clot.  (+ info)
