Do Symptoms Such As Headache, Muscle Pain And Fever Indicate Hemorrhage?

dear all, my husband is 28 yrs old had a ventricular haemorrhage few weeks ago. the cause is undiagnosed due to a spasm appear in the Angiogram but most suspect it was a aneurysm. DSA wil be done next week. Currently he use nemodipine drug only.He is little bit ok now but some time has a headache, muscle pain and mild fever. Is these symptoms are ok or what we can do for next?

Those are expected symptoms from the bleeding incident and some may even be side effects of the medications...hard to know for sure. It is important to always discuss possible effects of medications with the doctor who is prescribing to make sure they don't think something else could be happening. But nimodipine is commonly used in situations where BLEEDS occur into tissues (such as the heart in the case)...it is often used when aneurysms in the head also burst or even if there is simply a bleed secondary to the presence of amyloid commonly seen in patients with hypertension. The medication is suppose to be a preventative for SPASMS to be occurring in the blood vessels which can happen after a bleed and this could lead to tissue infarction. Send more questions to www.bit.ly/drdariushsaghafi and I'll be happy to answer. So don't just top the medicine after reading this....TALK IT OVER WITH THE DOCTOR.
