Hilary,
Hi! I was (for some reason) thinking that the embolization would fix me one-off. It seems a very simple, unintrusive procedure but the honest answer is that i did get some side effects. See here

As of today, I’m having a good day and don’t have much in the way of dizziness but it varies from day to day. I am starting to believe it will fade over time, so I do expect to get out of this very much unscathed.
Any questions, just ask. We are here to support each other. Nobody else knows what this is like – just AVMers – so we need to support each other.
Best wishes,
Richard
