The purpose of this Website is NOT to make you into a Brain Surgeon; rather, it is to give you useable, non-technical information about the conditions which require surgery in this most important area of our body.

ABOUT BRAIN SURGEONS:

Of all the medical skills, Brain Surgery is perhaps the most demanding, requiring a unique combination of training, skill, dexterity, stamina.



Post a Question/Comment:

Title:

I am a 27 year old female and have been STRUGGLING with episodic cluster headache syndrome for over 10 years. I regularly see a neurologist and have tried many medications, steroids, and injections and continue to find myself in the same miserable state every 6-9 months in my life. Most of you reading this are probably not familiar with cluster headaches. Let me clear one thing up right now, they are NOTHING like the typical migraine (http://www.ouch.com). For the surgeon, my question is, after years and years of such repetitive, unbearable pain and force to the same occipital/optical areas, could this be causing any damage over time? The attacks can last anywhere from 20 minutes - 3 hours. I can have up to 3-4 attacks in a day and my cycles can last up to 9 weeks at a time. Your help and advice is appreciated.

I had sinus surgery on 3/3/2010, and I have had a headache every day since then. I received a statement from my surgeon on which is itemized "61795 Brain Surgery Using Computer." Why would I have to have had brain surgery for sinus surgery? I have also had some short term memory issues and lack of concentration since the surgery. Could that be related?
