Neurologist Questions COVID-19

Neurological Diagnosis

I would like to ask a question if I test positive for COVID-19 and if I had a cavernous hemangioma, Could I be at risk of a brain haemorrhage.

My lesion is located on the brainstem to the right paracentral pons.

I’ve also got a history of seizures and I’m not sure whether that’s causing it or my dysautonomia which is my neurocardiogenic syncope.

My seizures started back in 2015, And back then me myself had no history because I’m adopted I didn’t have a lot of information in terms of medical family history but my biological mother had epilepsy.

And at the same time in 2015 I had a contraceptive implant called nexplanon, And after usage that’s when the dysautonomia episodes start at happening.

Also if I did have a haemorrhage in that pons region would I survive that impact or would it cause sudden death.

Having a cavernous hemangioma in the brainstem, along with a history of seizures and dysautonomia, can be complex.

The risk of a brain hemorrhage can depend on various factors, including the size and location of the hemangioma. A vascular neurosurgeon can assess your individual risk and discuss potential complications.

Survival and outcomes in the event of a brain hemorrhage also depend on factors like the size of the hemorrhage, how quickly it’s treated, and your overall health. It’s vital to have a consultation with a neurosurgeon expert in cerebrovascular disease.
