Treatment

December 17Th- the 1st embolization was done, after a long wait for schedule availability.
Procedure went well - a new embolization will be required.
Surgery happened in the morning, was awake by noon and released from the hospital the following morning.
Most uncomfortable part was the urinary catheter and constipation 24 hours after the surgery.
End of January had 3 of 4 events of numbness of left foot and left hand (no loss of strength and some loss of coordination); ended up in emergency room and after Cat Scan, MRI and EEG, no specific cause was found. Was prescribed Kepra- anti convulsant drug, at a low dose. As of mid march, the numbness had  not recurred.
