4/11 Wed medical update

I forgot to mention, that the CT scan showed that the swelling of my brain has gone down and the blood from the hemorrhage absorbed. I have an angiogram scheduled next week with the neurologist back at Harborview in Seattle. It will be an all day procedure where they will inject a dye and track it through my blood vessels in my brain. They are going to focus on the blood vessels particularly in the area of the hemorrhage. They will look for any malformed blood vessels that are potentially dangerous foe future ruptures. This procedure is not something that I am looking forward to. It will be an all day event including the 6-hour recovery period. So, that is scheduled for next Wednesday.
