I thought I would just update you, current I’m nearly four months after surgery and have been back to work, as a web programmer, for nearly two months. I would have been back to work earlier, and in fact I was back after a month. However, this only lasted a week until I got complication; Chemical meningitis possible aggravated by an infection, this cleared up after a stay in hospital.
Thought I did catch an infection for my local hospital, before I was transferred to the specialist hospital in London; the National. This secondary infection has cleared up, eventually; after a case of thrombosis thought. Right now my third nerve palsy is improving, especially in the last couple of week. Of course it’s never that simple, as I now have to cope as my brain returning to a more normal state, and at a quicker rate; which is traumatic in it’s self.
My future is uncertain as I’m not sure, however I will ask if I can be referred to a neuro-physiologist when I next see my specialist. But the point is I survived and I still recovered very quickly; it’s unlikely I be 100%, but then again I never was so It all up hill from now.
Anyway I hope all goes well for you and just remember the best route to recovery is to stay positive and active; being fit helped my cope with the surgery.
