A subarachnoid hemorrhage occurs when blood leaks into the subarachnoid space of the brain. This usually occurs in association with a hemorrhagic stroke.

The subarachnoid hemorrhage symptoms include a sudden severe headache, sometimes described as the “worst headache of my life”.


People may develop confusion, vision changes, weakness, difficulty with speaking, or a stiff neck.


Other subarachnoid hemorrhage symptoms include confusion, drowsiness, or loss of consciousness.
