Thank you very much, Dr. Awad. Your answers were very helpful!!

I was told to avoid estrogen and NSAIDS. I now take Ubrelvy (to treat a headache on its onset) and Propanolol to prevent headaches. This is the first time I've found with Rx medicine. I have had 2 craniotomies still have many more cavernomas, a stroke, and epilepsy. So, treating my headaches has been a journey. I still have pain every day, however, they are way more manageable.

Waiting to have an evaluation. I live in Albuquerque nm.

Thanks for sharing your story. Sad to hear of the way it's impacted you and sending courage for your journey. I have multiples as well and sporadic bleeds.

I hope this is a solution.

Thank you 🙏.

My grandfather was Lucas Baca, I have blueish green eyes, and all colors of hair.

Thanks for sharing your story. Thankful yours was able to be removed and I hope you've had seasons of health to follow.

I have a cavernoma in an area in the brain where as the neurosurgeon said, the complications from removing is greater than the complications it can cause from bleeding. Also, he told me to aboid blood thinners. Problem ia that i have lupus and antiphospholipid syndrome, and basically was prescribed aspirin by my reumatologist. Basialy i find myself in a dead end and have no idea what i should do..

Thank you so much for this upload, I learnt so much from this, we have a daughter with multiple CCM's and multiple daily seizures who is not responding to any medication. Unfortunately surgery is not an option because she would be hemiplegic then, the (part) removal of the CCM was already challenging. We're going to try keto diet now and hope for good results. Greetings from Switzerland ❤

Is there anyone I can ask about CCM1? as I am seeing a neuro Dr at UC Health in Colorado I am a descendent of Captain Cristobal Baca but when I ask about CCM1 the Dr's do not know about it and blow it off.

Hiccups. I know things are not good when I have Random Hiccups

Could someone with a spinal cavernoma only be eligible for the trial?

Very hopeful to see this process. Praying for a rapid development of success! 🙏

Thanks for all

I am so excited for the potential of this technology!

The best! Dr. MORCOS IS the most amazing man!

Tortilla chips are usually fried in toxic petroleum oils, better to make them yourself with avocado or organic extra virgin olive oil

I am a person from Belgium. I had bleeding from a cavernoma with failure. I had surgery a few months later. I still have a small cavernoma. I always thought that Covid might have something to do with it, but it was only reported in Belgium a few months later. I have to be careful with anti-inflammatories, but never heard about blood thinners.Are there anything else we can look out for? Thank you for your research. And for passing on the information worldwide.

Great video to raise awareness!!! I had little idea about this serious condition. Connie Lee seems like a very caring and serious person. I hope in the future there are better therapies for people suffering from CCM.:(

Cool video!! Good luck 😆

Rachael is awesome!

Thank you for your vulnerability, for sharing and inspiring others with your honesty and courage!

Thank you for sharing your journey!

Plsss have a cure for this. And also why cavernoma recur after excision? Enlighten us about this? Perhaps it is a tumor form by blood or vessel? What so ever. 😢

Thank you for sharing your story Brian! Your positivity is so inspiring!

I really dont understand this malformation? If you diagnose multiple cavernoma, does it mean you have many in your brain in different location? If 1 of them has bleed, need to remove?

Are cavernomas more common in women?

This was a informative session . Thank you.

Thank you for sharing your story. In Australia there are no “centres of excellence”, the alliance is the main source of support for me. Showing my family other people and their stories helps.

You are so brave to put your story out there only a year after your surgery. I had mine in 2002 when I was eight, and I didn't want anything to remind me. I just wanted a normal life. I first joined the Alliance because something big happened in 2021, and I now wanted to help people with CM. I am so proud of you for taking that step in the right direction!

How can I become an advocate to bring awareness to this condition.? I'm in NYC.

You are not alone. You are amazing and so brave. I too had a stroke and left with symptoms. Unfortunately I couldn't get the surgery. I'm in NYC. Thank you for sharing your story. I wan to help bring awareness to this, I just dont know where to begin.

We are blessed that you are leading the effort! Please provide a link that I can share with friends and family so they can contribute.

I am only 42 and have bleeding on the brain Cavernoma I mean

I have a Cavernoma in my head it's so painful I am on a waiting list to C a neurologist

So exciting to hear how far the group has come since I joined in 2019! Back then it was relatively unknown as a disease so trying to get a diagnosis or even a doctor who was aware of CCM was a huge undertaking and required extra efforts on a patient’s part to educate them. I will always be grateful that through the Alliance’s work, I was able to get genetic testing for me and from that, for my children. I cannot describe the feeling of opening a letter from the genetics lab and reading that NEITHER of my children have CCM. The familial CCM2 abnormality stops with me. Thank you Angioma Alliance and Malformation.

I’m so happy to see the progress you all have made! I knew someone affected by Cavernous Angioma, and I know they’re always happy to hear all the good news from the hard workers on the team ❤

Interesting info

Thanks for such great info and stories

Many Amazon freshs warehouse workers has this thing because 1000s of 5G devices in the Amazon warehouse 😢

Where can I make an appointment with Dr Morcos?

Very impressive man.

I just found out too and they are giving me seizures no one has ever heard of. Doctor is throwing meds at me trying to see which ones work. smh Thank you for bringing this to light.

I just started getting my headaches again after taking iron pills just two weeks ago and I think you may be onto something but the expiration date is for 10/23

I actually have had a Cavernous Malformation since 2006 and I think I’m going to try and have surgery soon.

How many Human Clinical Trials are planned? - are more than one group looking at this to go to Trial ? Does FUnding Exist to get this through Clinical Trials ? Can the Treatment be bought into and offered into the Hospital/Clinic and Adopted without Clinical Trials ?

I want to know about Albertina Albert Baca. Who was her family? She was married to Manuel Gallegos

I have 4 children with this. Three with seizures and one daughter that has had 3 brain surgeries and a stroke paralyzing her right side. My son had brain surgery at 7 and has since had a stroke.
