my grandmother went into a coma caused by hepatic encephalopathy. she was completely fine until her hands started trembling and she started vomiting one morning. there were no symptoms before that. she does have liver cirrhosis. she was taken to a hospital approximately 12 hours after this happened and placed into an ICU with a ventilator. she regained consciousness in about 24 hours, after the ammonia had been flushed out from the brain and the chest. she was in critical condition, but has been recovering well. now off the ventilator she does have noticeable personality changes yet good memory. this to me is extremely scary. she also seems less aware of the environment and takes longer to answer. could these affects be temporary or permanent?

Hepatic encephalopathy, which is the cause of her coma, can result in some temporary changes in personality and slow thinking. This is because the liver is not functioning properly and the toxins are building up in the brain. However, these effects might be lessened with treatment and time.

My mother is 77 years old having space maker so which surgery is suitable coiling or clipping as bulgy lesion is 7mm.

Female | 77

Having in mind the age and the medical history of your mother, the choice between coiling and clipping for the 7mm bulging lesion depends on various elements such as her overall health and the specific anatomy. On the one hand, coiling is a less invasive method and is, thus, the preferred procedure for the elderly; on the other hand, clipping, which can offer more durability, is more extensive and a bit more complicated surgery. The symptoms can be headaches or sight problems, although a great number of people remain asymptomatic. It is quite necessary to consult a neurologist.
