Hi my name is Skyla I’m 36F and on August 27th I went to the ER for headaches that would not stop for two weeks nothing helped. They did an MRI and found an aneurysm. I was transferred to the big hospital where they do aneurysms and strokes. I was admitted and there for 5 days. Where i went through 3 angiograms and they put 5 stents and 2 large coils in. My aneurysm is/was 2.2 × 2.4 × 1.6 cm and is/was located in the right cavernous carotid artery. I was discharged on the 1st of September.
As of right now I am still having very bad headaches worse than before the operation but I am also losing a lot of hair at the base of my head. I have asked the nurse if the hair loss is because of anything related and she has said no then proceeded to tell me it’s my thyroid but I believe the hair loss is due to radiation and stress. My question is has anyone else experienced hair loss? How long did it take to stop or slow down also I take Tylenol for my headaches but it barely touches them is there something else someone has found that works better? I’m all for trying anything at this point
