I was in hospital recovering after having a couple of operations for brain aneurysms. A bloke was brought into the next bed and they pulled his curtains closed and explained that they were going to do this exact operation on him. I was in bed nearly vomiting while listening to them explaining the procedure to him. It reminded me of silence of the lambs. When they wheeled him back after a few hours he was totally conscious and we chatted all night. I was amazed by how well he was.

I had this surgery and I can say that you cannot feel any pain at all as I was under anesthesia and you need to be awake so that you can tell the surgeon if there is any pain or a problem like you cannot see. What hurts and it hurts a lot is the recovery time that it takes for the brain swelling to go down. The brain itself does not feel pain as there are no nerves in the brain the nerves surround the brain and since the brain is swollen and pressing up against the nerves and the skull which does not give or move at all it is all nerve on bone and that is what hurts so much as there is no relief at all until the swelling goes down. I had my surgery in the early 80's and side of my skull like in the video unlike some brain surgeries today that are done by a pin point Laser surgical cutting tool.

My surgery was done in 1982 and I was one of the research patients in the study. i am sure that there is a lot done today that my be different then it was back then. In my recovery we did a lot of things like I never took any pain reliever to help in the recovery because at that time the thinking was if the doctors gave me pills to help with the swelling of the brain the brain the swelling would take longer to go down do to the brain thinking that all was Ok. From the doctors that I talk to today the surgery is a lot different then it was back then and it is much simpler and easy on the patient today.
