Has Anyone Had Masses In Their Brain That Are Called Anything Of A Malformation I Have 3 Cavernous Malformations There Avm. Thank You ,kain
I was born with a brain AVM. It bled in 1989 then ruptured and bled in 2017. Drs told me that it was too big to be removed. So they just watched it. I had regular MRIs I think yearly, sometimes 2x a year when I got older. Then when it ruptured in 2017 there was no choice but to remove it. Turns out it was even bigger than they had thought. I had a 20 hour surgery and the AVM is gone. The drs that operated said it should have been removed much earlier . So any one reading this that has a brain AVM please get a second opinion .
After doing a MRI a few years back , the dr pointed out the Lesions on my brain , where my seizures activity’s are .
