Hi, I suffered a brain haemorrhage caused by an AVM in the cerebellum area of the brain. This also triggered a stroke. I have written an account of my years post bleed, including symptoms incurred and how I dealt with the incident. I feel it will be very informative towards your own recovery journey. In not completely independent as my balance was damaged so I can only go places with assistance and support. If you wish to check it out, it can be found on Amazon it’s called The Mask That Always Smiles by Jo Ulczak. Please check it out 😊

Thanks very much. I'm definitely going to read this. I recently had a minor bleed from my cerebellar AVM and my sense of balance was the main thing affected.
