I am a 32 yr old male . Had a pontine bleed in Sep 19. As advised it was a hypertensive bleed ( My normal bp without medication runs around 135/95) and there has been nothing to suggest otherwise in any of the investigations that we have done. Luckily the bleed had resolved itself without having to do any surgery. I am fit now.
The last test was a CT Angio that I got done in Feb 20 for having peace of mind and to know everything was in order. At the time only the film was availabe which apparently showed no issues as such. Recently I got the Radilogist's report for the angio and in one of the lines it says ," Dominant flow noted in left visualised vertebral artery in relation to the right side".
What does this mean and How does this correlate to my condition.? Should i get it looked into further. Or any new medications are needed. I am only on medication for hypertension for now.
