AVM - Arterio Venous Malformation?

I know that dealing with an AVM can be crazy, but after finding a treatment, all is well. Not many people will know what this is, (Arterio Venous Malformation) but my sister had one for many years, and we finally found a treatment, just wondering, what sort of treatment did you receive and how did it work, and for how long? Did it come back? Did it disappear?

they can't treat mine, it is a large one in the fron left lobe. If it hemorages that is it for me. To big for the gamma knife too.

ive got it and theyre watching it for now because im only 17. they have restricted football =( and rollercoasters for me and thats it Report It

Same for my case...i found one a few years back..
i'm only 23 now
I went for gamma knive, now currently under medication...Life is tough Report It
