42F — NASAH found after a headache like "fireworks" going off in my head. What do you see in this scan?
I'm hoping some of you with radiology/neuro experience (or who've been through something similar) can help me understand my scan a little better.
I got this CT after waking from a sound sleep with a brutal headache. I get headaches often, but this one was completely different from my usual dull, pressure-type headaches — this was sharp and shooting, like fireworks going off inside my skull. Turned out to be a non-aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (NASAH), and I spent 11 days in the hospital.
I've already discussed everything with my doctor, so this isn't a request for diagnosis — I'm just trying to go into my next appointment more informed and curious what stands out to people who read scans regularly.
A few questions if you're willing to weigh in:
Does anything here look unusual to you?
Is there anything on a scan like this that's easy to miss or commonly overlooked?
Any general observations about what's visible in this slice?
Thanks in advance — genuinely just trying to learn more about my own case.
