Thank you for sharing. Hopefully you make a full recovery. Generally they will do repeat cat scans to make sure the body is resorbing the blood. If symptoms get worse than they are head back as that could be a sign of bleeding again.
Having had the mri and not hearing back right when it was done can be a good thing.
The big thing here for everyone to recognize is if you develop stroke like symptoms go to the ER sooner than later. Under 6 hours, ideally 4 hours is the time to treat and act.
Outside of that time frame is a lot of "watch and see".

I hope you continue to feel better. Best wishes for you.

My old man had a brain bleed a couple of years ago it was a long recovery for him and many side effects with the drugs he was given, its like he had a stroke, I think that every person is different but be sure to take care of yourself first as my dad pushed too hard and it set him back, good luck!!!!!

Hi Ron, we've never met but my thoughts are with you after reading your post. I've had some medical issues in the past and it sucks waiting to hear back after they've done some tests. Like mentioned already, its usually a good sign if you don't hear back immediately. Hope everything turns out fine.
