    Description of Event or Problem · 1

    IN 2006 I WAS USING THE PANASONIC MASSAGER EV247. AFTER I WAS DONE I HAD A SWMMING FEELING, MY HEARING SEEMED MUFFLED AND MY VISION WAS BLURRY. THAT NIGHT, I WENT TO BED AND THE NEXT MORNING HAD AN EXCRUTIATING HEADACHE. I WENT TO THE ER THAT DAY AND THE NEXT DAY WENT BY AMBULANCE. I SAW THE NEUROLOGIST AT MY CLINIC AND WAS GIVEN AN MRI WITH CONTRAST WHICH SHOWED A SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE AND VERTEBRAL ARTERY SPASM. I WAS TRANSPORTED VIA AMBULANCE TO HOSPITAL WHERE AN ANGIOGRAPHY OF MY BRAIN SHOWED A SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE AND VA SPASM. AT THAT TIME THE BLEEDING HAD STOPPED AND SO IT WAS JUST A MATTER OF RECUPERATING. THE FREQUENCY OF THIS PRODUCT IS TOO INTENSE FOR THE NECK AREA AND THE INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL, WHICH I HAVE, GIVES INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO USE THE PRODUCT ON THE NECK, THE INSTRUCTIONS WERE FOLLOWED.
