Hi, I`m a 24 yr old female from VA. I have posted before about strange neurological symptoms I was having after the birth of my baby in 2002. I had tingling, numbness, twitching, cramping & other odd sensations that would come and go all over my body. I seen 3 neurologists about it who couldn`t tell me anything, they kept saying all tests were normal, including MRIs. But luckily, I found a new neurologist who may have discovered what might be going on. He thought something was wrong and ordered a new MRI of the brain this past April. After he reviewed an MRI I had in 2002 by a different neurologist, and the results of the MRI I had in April, he told me that I have a Cavernous angioma on the left side of my brain. He said that he felt it was benign and wasn`t doing anything though. He didn`t seem to think some of my symptoms were related to this. Some of my symptoms have been left sided, and this thing is on the left side of my brain. I can`t remember what part of the brain he said it was located in though. He said some of these can be dangerous, but he didn`t feel mine was. So, when do neurologists usually recommend surgery for one of these? What do neurologists do if they feel a patient has a CA that isn`t doing anything? Can you have left sided symptoms if it is on the left side of the brain? I have an MRA scheduled today, will it be able to tell whether this thing has bled or not?
