I had two aneurysms, one of which ruptured in 2016, and I also have a brain AVM on the left side. The rupture caused the AVM to bleed and resulted in a minor stroke. I was treated by a specialist who filled 90% of the AVM with an Onyx device and all the aneurysms. They mentioned that the AVM could potentially grow and want to finish filling it soon. My last appointment was a year ago, and it hadn't grown. I frequently experience severe headaches, lightheadedness, and sometimes numbness in my legs and arms. Is this something I will have to deal with for life?

I visited my nurse practitioner today for a routine pap smear after having a partial hysterectomy in 2019. The N.P. noticed some bleeding and performed a chemical cauterization. I noticed significant bleeding afterward, similar to having my period, and my blood pressure was very high at 189. Should I be concerned, and what should I do next?
