I had a leaking annie (11 mm) that was coiled and stented 3 weeks ago. My main symptoms post-procedure have been headaches & fatigue, but I’ve also had random twitching thoughout my body. It doesn’t get in the way of daily life, but wasn’t there before. As I write this I realize I need to tell the doctor 
I will do that. Wondering if af anyone has experienced this? And does it go away.
I am so proud of you for thinking you need to call your doctor! Good job!!! I was taught by my Neurosurgeon’s 3rd and still with her assistant to use my portal, it’s faster. Now days Ms Ryann has an assistant so it takes a bit longer. Before that, I only knew to call her hotline speak to the RN who would have to wait for a reply back from Dr. Q-W.
As for twitching I don’t recall any, sorry. But I know that every procedure I had, something changed even if it was just a diagnostic and not repair. I got a tremor in my right hand from my rupture that has worried everyone but me. Just like you, it didn’t affect my quality of life. Neurologist tried all kinds of drugs for epilepsy that my body didn’t like. Had that tremor until this year, so about 11 ½ years. Mucked up my left wrist and the first OT was extremely bothered by it, suggested I wear a band on my right wrist, I asked if my Dad’s watch would work and he said yes. My watch wouldn’t because I have a leather strap. It stopped as soon as I put it on. Apparently it’s something that helps folks with MS and Parkinson’s. Something so simple and Ohana still likes me! She wouldn’t come near me on the second day of one of the drugs when she was a pup. Hang in there, make sure your hydrated.
I didn’t have twitching but I did suffer very weird body feelings that started at the bottom of my legs and worked its way up through my whole body. When they happen I can’t move or talk until the feeling passes. It’s been 11 years since my ruptures…14 coils and 2 stents. I still suffer the feelings now and again. The brain is such an amazing organ. I still get so fatigued and really don’t like to “give in” to taking a nap but fatigue can overwhelm me. The one thing that I always forget to do is take mini breaks meaning walking away from what I am doing with other people and just rest. That means no talking, no listening. Just being by myself in the quiet helps me until I can rejoin the social gathering. It’s how I have to live now.
