Hemorrhagic stroke: What have you experienced afterward?

Winjki, Glad you pulled through and are doing well. My brother is healthy as well before he had his stroke in October 2025 too. But he had several months of headaches leading up to it. Physician ordered a MRI which was normal. After the stroke, his PCP felt badly—perhaps he had missed something—but he truly followed normal protocol. Wondering if you had headaches before or after your stroke.

@barbaradh no headaches after stroke....but immediately before I had headache. I took ibuprofen which is a mistake! One of the side effects of aspirin and ibuprofen is increased permeable of blood vessels...do not take an NSAID for headache take acetaminophen....ask your doctor
@barbaradh Not that I noticed. Nothing to give me a clue until.it happened..

@barbaradh now that I think of it....I had headaches before the stroke...but I took ibuprofen and kept going...no headaches after. One of the side effects of ibuprofen and aspirin are increased blood vessel permeability.....which is why person with this kind of stroke (a Brain bleed) should not take these drugs
