I think it's time for me to get a second opinion. I misread my nurse practitioner's message regarding the MRI/MRA. She wants me to see a neurosurgeon, NOT a neurologist. Can you say FREAKED OUT? And I still have not SEEN her, nor even talked to her on the phone, or via telehealth. She's sending messages through the online "my chart" thingy, as well as having nurses answer my questions. Almost all the blood test results are back, and normal. I also got a cardiac monitor yesterday, and will wear that for seven days.

LONG day. I was scheduled for kidney surgery at 2:45pm & checked in at 12:30pm. Something caused a backup in the OR rooms & I waited in pre-op until after 6pm.  By the time the I had the surgery & was released it was 9pm.  Ugh Thanks to all who sent me their good wishes, much appreciated.


For those of you keeping score…    I had my final appointment on the kidney journey today. Stent removed, clean bill of health.  Feeling myself again, which it’s been about 3-4 months since I could say that.  Thanks again for all the good wishes!

Let’s hope that was a mistake on her part.

I didn't see anything too scary when I looked things up, although you can't help but be scared a bit. From my supposedly up to date reference:
Factors Associated With Decreased Risk
STUDY SUMMARY: vigorous exercise ≥ 3 times/week associated with decreased unruptured intracranial aneurysm
Modifiable Risk Factors
  • modifiable risk factors associated with increased risk of unruptured intracranial aneurysms in adults include3
    • smoking
    • uncontrolled hypertension
    • alcohol use disorder




Thanks. I've never smoked, am taking HBP meds (for years), and have moderated my alcohol consumption in the past few years. Onward!

Just a quick update on the MRI/MRA tests I had this morning. The tests show that my carotid arteries are clear (excellent news), but there is evidence of a small cerebral aneurysm which could be old or new. I will be following up on Monday with my nurse practitioner and probably seeing a neurologist. I spoke to a friend's husband who is a retired doctor (though not a neurologist) this afternoon and he had lots of good, reassuring advice.

Another trip to the Public hoerpital. No more catheter  or pee bag. Also got the bandages replaced. They said its healing very nicely.Bad new is that I have zero pee conrol  and have been through 3 diapers sonce this morning.  They didn't have the results of the prostate and lymph nodes back yet. They perscribed me a anti inflammatory and B vitamans to help with the nerve problem. I can't do the Keegle exercises until that is better, just hurts to f'ing much. Will be nice when I don't need a new diaper every 2 hours. Still better than the damn bag.
