Banter Random Facts About Yourself

I have a cavernoma which is an abnormal cluster of blood cells, on the right side of my brain.
Sometimes it bleeds and I get a numbness and pins and needles feeling down my left side.
It can happen several times a day or weeks apart with no consistency.
The neurologist said it looks like a piece of popcorn so I call it Poppy

Feel like every one I think of is medical based but another

Once my undiagnosed at the time anxiety got so bad I spent 3 months in doors and most of that in bed.
I would get vertigo like dizziness any time I tried.
Countless doctors and scans later and a loss of 2 stone weight , bam anxiety and some lovely little pills got it under control.

Scary time though
