Information about aneurysm that caused a stroke but now a seizure?

Posted by jdarnell2696 @jdarnell2696, Feb 12 7:16pm

Back in November 2025 my mother had a stroke she didn't know what was going on I happened to go ask her a question before going to bed and I being in the medical field knew what was happening to her and called 911 immediately the hospital did scans and they found she had an aneurysm but they did not do any sort of surgery on it she came home after she went to two separate rehabilitation centers to get the left side of her body functioning independently again as she moved from the hospital to the first facility I noticed a decrease in retaining what she learned from the hospital rehabilitation Center then when she come home even more was lost within a week she was back in the hospital for kidney infection but at the same time they noticed she was losing blood somewhere which after getting two bags of blood and a bag of plasma they still did not find where the bleeding was and after I recommended ask pleaded for them to check her head because while she was in the hospital rehab after leaving the ICU within a day they walked away from her being on the potty box and she fell because she was leaning on the left which could feel like most stroke patients do and she hit her head and she dislocated her shoulder and broke her elbow after getting the runaround on if it was broken or not and being told that her shoulder was dislocated but then it wasn't and I wanted to know mainly about the MRI of her head considering she just had a stroke and there was an aneurysm in there they proceeded to tell me that it was fine so whenever she needed blood I asked for it again and they insisted that it wasn't coming from there that she wouldn't be able to talk to him if it was coming from there and I have done some research a little bit on leaking and I just now found out that leaking can cause to a main rupture which tonight she had a seizure and it said that the seizure was because the aneurysm may have ruptured and this hospital is not listening and I'm afraid I want her to go to the Mayo clinic or at least get a doctor from there but nobody is close to Oklahoma which I could swear that some hospital in Tulsa area was connected with the Mayo clinic. Am I delusional because I thought there was something around this area? I just know I want her not to be at this particular hospital and I want a second opinion as soon as possible that way it's not all about being sued or afraid of being sued that they actually you know want to help my mom and not just push her off into her early grave. There's a lot of procedures that she can't have and there's a lot of things that can't be done because she's had lung cancer in the past she's got treatments and recovered from that she's been in remission for going on 3 years she has to pacemaker she has a port that doesn't draw anymore but it does you know the other basically she's got metal all over so a lot of the scans are hard for them to do but she gets this contrast treatment for her cancer every 3 to 4 months so I don't know how far that contrast treatment goes in the body but maybe they can see something if they did an entire scan you know including the brain I don't know I'm just spitballing? If anybody has had any kind of related experience please get a hold of me somehow I don't know for allowed to give out personal information on these things or not it says I'll get an email whenever somebody post something so I'll be watching the next few hours hopefully somebody can give me some answers! Thank you for taking the time to read my ramblings.

@jdarnell2696 - Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. You've gone through a lot with your mom, and she is very fortunate to have you. How is she doing today? You mentioned you felt the hospital was not listening to you. Have you found another hospital you might take her to instead?
