    Hi Roxanna, same story. Just two weeks ago went to the ent for right ear tinnitus and he told me nothing to be worries but we found a cavernoma . 2015 wasn’t detected when I had an mri scan done. Thank you for sharing this will help me to try to think about it in a different way. Dani

    I don't have a CAVERNOMA STORY Yet. And all the Relief & Validation that arrives with a Clear Diagnosis. Not to mention Treatment Options & a sense belonging to a Community Society or Alliance Group or any ENTITY of Empathic Gathering of Kindred Spirits I have a SPECULATIVE Story though. It's like a Horror Story. A Steven King Movie. Even a Spy Agency couldn't manifest such suffering. But then AGAIN maybe they could & DID & THEY chose Me to DO IT to. Lucky Me in the United States of Australia eh!

      Maybe I should have Gratuitous Sex at "The Harem" across the Road? That'd be a Riot for the Girls with Intriguing names. Me with No Teeth & a Rollator looking like Grandpa. Intriguingly, That Sexiful Establishment was Where I had my First Encounter. My first encounter with a Scary NEUROLOGICAL EVENT in a Hot Bath in 2007. The Name's BONE, Michael Bone. Cooked & Seared in a Post Coital Hot Tub with an Exacerbated Brainhead as a Extra. (Not Funny at the time). I couldn't see or talk or Think properly and my Head hurt & my Tongue was Tingling & Numb & my legs Buckled as I got out of the Water. The Poor girl "CAPRICÖRNIA" was so worried for me. Then again It could have been "Perrplexxia" or "Daphne St Claire". Been a while. Then I sat in a child's swing in the Park and then my Head came Good. (Sorry it's Trüe) A very Tricky Day it WAS. Until I had A HOT BATH at home without any company And IT 🔥🧠💥 HAPPENED AGAIN.

    As a retired neuropsychologist who a first big bleed from a cavernoma in the the left cerebellum when 71 I’m on the personal medical side. Having a well organized approach and mindfulness are important. After that some at least mostly nonjudgmental friends and informal support can help. I also had never seen a cavnoma patient in decades of work with older adults as the majority are younger people. In that regard this is a most devastating diagnosis. Therapy therefore needs to be aware these patients are dealing with ongoing loses. Friends and family will be dealing with loss and may have to make hard decisions. Letting of all shoulds finding meaning can be done but meaning needs to be defined by the individual. Usually also means letting go of expectations. In future presentations may be helpful to better define what a cavernoma is I.e., small cluster of capillaries. You seem like a sensitive young professional. Keep up the good work
