My first date was cancelled because of covid in December. My second date was cancelled because of junior doctors strike so now due to have operation on my 5cm AN on 4th April. I have had a shunt put in because of a build-up of fluid on my brain and also going to have another operation as scans have shown I also have an aneurysm. Has anyone else had a shunt put in and do they have any effects from it?
