Guest guest Posted June 21, 2002 Report Share Posted June 21, 2002 Hello everyone let me update u. I went to er. Did a mri of the brain and brainstem. Said I have a piece of the patch of on one corner that was put in. And I still havent seen MY Surgeon, just his residents. He has been in surgerys for ever. He called from surgery tonight to apologize to me. He sees me on the 2nd. So his chief resident came in to do the paper work and said I had what was a CSF collection. He said there almost sure of that and if its not its alot of tissue. He said we may have to get shunted. Im scared. I was scared to come home, but it was my choice. My NSG is on Vacation next week. It hurts worse than Ive ever felt. Jut on the leftside of the incision that whole side of my head is puffy and HURTS bad. Nothing is working med wise. He said if i feel worse or leak any clear fluid out to get up there. So lets pray I can stay stable at home for a week in a half. The word he said was pseudomeningocele. Anyone have this and how dangerous is it. Mandie Keaton Surgery 5/28/02 HAVING LOTS OF PROBLEMS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
