my prescription says I need a craniotomy as soon as possible for a brain hemorrhage and blockage requiring surgery - can I use this to get medical leave or do I need additional documents from the doctor how urgent is a craniotomy for brain hemorrhage and blockage mentioned in my prescription - should I be rushing to the hospital right away or is there some time to arrange things the doctor wrote that I have a brain hemorrhage and blockage needing surgery with a craniotomy ASAP - what exactly does this mean for my condition and recovery can someone explain why a craniotomy is required for brain hemorrhage and blockage - my prescription mentions it but I'm not sure what the procedure involves my medical leave application needs a prescription but mine only mentions craniotomy for brain hemorrhage and blockage - is that enough or do I need more details from the doctor
