Worst Headache, Blood Clot In Brain. On Warfarin. What Could It Be ?
Dear dr,
In 2011, I had the worst headache of my life. I went to the er thinking it was some kind of migraine... The cat scan showed some blood in my brain. With further testing, they found that I had a blood clot in my brain and it was 100% blocked. Doctors say it was due to birth control... I was in the hospital several days and was rushed back to the er two more times due to a allergic reaction and high levels... I was on warfarin for about seven months and I still have bad headaches to this day. Looking at pictures taken of me in the last year, I noticed my right eye is smaller than the left when I smile and in pictures... Could this be from the clot?

Thank for choosing HCM, It would be more convenient with ct scan documents, lesion inside the brain have numbers of related symptoms, and depends upon the nature of lesions, as you stated here, smaller eye is one of the signe of it, in opinion you better consult some competent neurosurgeon and discus the problem with him, Have good day
