Sorry dont know what that is. For coiling you need to stay still on your back for about 8 hours to give your artery plug time to heal

I had an aneurysm clipped in December and wasn't allowed to sit up for about 10 days. Took another couple of days to get fairly steady on my feet.

Just looking at what I said, the staples came out after about 10 days, so I think that was when i was allowed to sit up. i do have some little plates holding the bone in place now
