hi there, my name is lu.
im new here and this is only my 2nd post. :)
thought id drop a line here just to say hello to everyone:)
its kinda weird to write here, im not sure how i can help others here but if i can i will:)
just over a year ago i had a craniotomy to remove a colloid cyst from my third ventricle
i suffered from shocking migraines (that would last for days), positional pain over my forehead,eye pain, loss of balance, vertigo, and other problems, behavoural changes, paranioa etc. could not get out bed in the morning, (morning migraines were the worst!!) and a g.p who ignored my problems untill i was on the verge of falling into a coma!!
i found my hospital treatment very upsetting and confusing, the last year feels like ive been pulled away from my normal life and thrown into someone elses nightmare!!
im so glad i found this forum, everyone here seems lovely and supportive.
anyway, now ive finally plucked up the courage to post here, hope to speak to you soon:)
thanks lulu
