My 42 yr old sis just had a stent put in to cut off blood to 4 Aneurysms on her left side a few days ago. She’s home recovering now waiting 4 weeks until the next stent for THE ONE remaining on the right side of the brain. Thank you so much for your channel ❤

Anybody here with Aneurysm disappeared without any interventions?

I have the same thing going on.

Too cute!

Hi , Iam a 60 years old man , very active at my work and I do walk everyday 15000 steps .i don’t smoke , no alcohol. One day a had a dizzy 😵‍💫 and I was trying to to stand up I could not. I just took it easy and relax but after 2 hours I drove my car to the hospital where after checking ,I diagnosed with a two small brain aneurysms, the left side is 4mm, the right side is 3 mm . Neurobiologist told me not to worry about it right now just he ask me to watch my blood pressure, no alcohol, no cigarettes,and no oily foods. Iam continuing my life normally, and everything in God hands.🙏🙏🙏

Hi Melissa. 22 years ago an aneurysm in my brain ruptured. I don't know how long the aneurysm had been unruptured in my brain. Two years before the rupture I would get horrific headaches and my right arm kept getting severe pins and needles and numbness. I put this down to stress and basically ignored these symptoms. I wish I had got them investigated at the beginning as then my aneurysm would not have ruptured. When the doctors coiled the aneurysm and saw the size of it they were quite amazed as it was only 3mm in diameter and at the time I had low blood pressure so there was no way that this aneurysm was suspected of rupturing. They would just have recommended watch and monitor. I was very lucky as I came out of it alive and now live a normal life. I don't have anything with caffeine in any more (except the odd glass of wine with a meal out) . I drink decaffeinated coffee and tea and hardly any alcohol. I suffered a change of personality which is very common to aneurysm ruptured victims but I like the new me better than the old me. I am a lot quieter and kinder. I basically live a normal life now. The doctor didn't expect me to live when the aneursym ruptured - in fact I was in the national newspaper as 'the miracle lady'. They thought at least I would be severely impaired. I was back at work in 3 months. I am a Christian and I believe wholeheartedly that God saved me and I am very grateful for that. So Melissa, that is my story. It happened 22 years ago - have faith and keep strong. If you ever want to contact me please feel free to do so. - Maggie

Ive got 4 of them and my blood pressure is to high to have surgery

See that you haven’t posted in two or three years, hope you are still doing well. Just found your videos. As a 46 year old male I Just found out that I had an unruptured aneurysm. Not sure what kind it is but I was told that it was small and to follow up in 6 months to see if it has expanded. That didn’t sound to reassuring to me seeing the symptoms that I have been having. I do have a specialist that they referred to me that is in Cleveland and to get in contact with his offices for an appointment. Now I’m a little uneasy about doing anything active.

9:56 pm This video was so enlightening. I was diagnosed with a brain aneurysm on March 21, 2024 just a few weeks ago. I went from shock, the fear to all day nervousness. I had to draw from my faith in God to help me deal with my diagnosis. I went to the neurosurgeon and he told me that mines was outside of the brain and its 4mm. I asked if it was okay if i exercise and he said intense exercise was fine. From what i had read on the internet i thought peoplevwith aneurysms need to take it easy. He told me, " you will be fine, we will monitor it and see you again in one year." A year seems like a very long time to not know if an aneurysm is get larger or moving.

Did you seriously delete my comment?

I had 2 ,I had major surgery on one and watching the second one.

How do we even know if you are still alive babe?

In 2013 I got my 36mm brain aneurysm clipped and endovascular coiled . It's on my basilar artery. The doctor had to block the left artery. Now is about 18mm. I had the left part on my body paralysed. Now it is fully recovered. But I have suffered from panic attacks for many years. I get tired faster. I'm a dreamer and one a month I burnt out myself. I'm a writer, have my full time job at a furniture factory ( because I love building stuff and I need my paycheck to live) and I go to the gym six days a week. I still have headaches and sometimes I can't get out of bed. I am grateful to recover to this but its hard because most people don't believe me and put me in dangerous situations. My stress tolerability for my brain and body is low and people don't really understand and care. I am sorry for my English.

I was told I have a brain aneurysm 1 month ago and couldn’t get a appointment for a month. Just waiting and worrying.

It's March 2024 and I'm in Lower Michigan. I was diagnosed about 5 weeks ago with a 7mm basilar tip saccular aneurism with wide neck. After all kinds of scans and tests, it's almost time for neural-intervention (coil procedure.) My surgery is a week from today. This blog helped me to appreciate the emotional unease that accompanies the diagnosis. I have been waiting over a month for this procedure. I have been very depressed. I feel so unprepared and trusting others is not my strong suit! But the right neurosurgeon is worth the wait, I believe. He was my second opinion. He has done thousands of these exact surgeries, and that matters! Always get a second opinion. The first consult was with a neuro-interventionist who only knew that method and had little to no experience with actual brain surgery. In short, he would have no "plan B" in the operating room. Further, my 'second opinion' neurosurgeon mentioned that the STEM procedure that is only a year old (an FDA approved intervascular procedure very similar to the coil procedure, but quicker and less risky in the OR) is actually starting to show some post-procedural complications not followed in the literature because the procedure is so new. The interventionist was going to proceed with the STEM procedure on me. The second doctor knew, because his Neurology department services the same geographic area as doctor #1, and is the go-to center when lesser nearby centers have operative or post-opeative procedural failures. In short, I dodged a bullet by getting a second opinion. To find the right doctor I reached out to a trusted family practice doctor, who reached out to a neurologist she respected, who provided her the recommendation of the exceptionally qualified neuro-surgeon..who is now MY doctor. Folks, this diagnosis is too serious for just an online search of neurosurgeons. You need to seek GOOD recommendations through reliable channels. A Google search doesn't cut it!! I wish everyone well with their health, and health care! The answers are out there. Stay the course! Knowledge is the light that chases away fear.

I have the same dear lady

3 years ago wife found me dead on the garage floor of a ruptured aneurysm. Please do something about it don't put your loved ones through finding you dead and hope for the best. I hid it from my wife for 30 years

Thank you everyone for sharing your stories and experiences. I have a question for everyone. I had a brain aneurysm surgery back in 2006. They clipped the aneurysm and at this point in my life at age 53 now, I would like to use a small exercise rebounder. I am wondering if anyone uses one, or jogs, or do any types of physical activity or exercise and is it safe to do?? Thanks!!

Best wishes

Hi Melissa, I was just diagnosed with a rare, 1 centimeter, inoperable, aneurysm. I searched aneurysm on TH-cam and found your site. I plan to listen all of your videos. But you haven’t posted in a year. Are you still here ❤?

Hope you are doing great now

Hi Melissa I came across your video, i was diagnosed with 2 unruptured brain aneurysm, measuring 11.5 mm and the second 4mm and my angiogram is is in 5 days am scared, i have pressure on my head and all over my face and neck, am so scared i think of my 3 little children i don't want to die😢 i love my babies

I had 2 aneurysms one very complicated, you sound like me ,absolute nightmare

Current time 1:55 pm my dr says I can take Ibp and have no restrictions . I’m confused my aneurysm is 3.2 mm

I was 18 when my aneurysm was found in the base of my brain, it was too risky to remove it, so the doctors left it alone. I was one of 200 with this issue. After the symptoms had eased off, and tired of the countless intrusive tests, I stopped and accepted my fate. It was advised to avoid stimulants (alcohol, caffeine, nicotine and anything physically demanding). At 26, I had another emergency, severe headache. By this age, I was emotionally over it. I'm 55 now, retired freelance artist, solo traveler of 3 continents, ride motorcycle, was an avid scuba diver and snowboarder who still loves espresso and Guinness. I've slowed down because of my back, not brain. Once in a while I'll get headaches/symptons which I use as alarms to slow down. I'm not saying I've got the answer, I was careless at times, but I think how you view and live your life is the most crucial of all. As for managing, this has been my focus and swear by it: MEDITATION, EXERCISE, HEALTHY FOODS (VEGETARIAN), CREATIVITY, FREEDOM/ADVENTURE, PETS, and of course LOVE. Just remember, everything has a price, know it's worth before buying. ❤🙏❤️

I had my avm rupture in February of this year, received gamma knife radiation in July, then a few weeks later, had another rupture on an aneurysm that grew immediately after radiation, this week I went to get my follow up angiogram and my neurologist found another aneurysm that has not ruptured

This is not the end of you Melisa! It's not easy , I know but above all , just put your faith/ trust in the Lord, only " He/ God/ Jesus Jesus " can change anything Proverbs 3: 5🎉

Thank you for sharing your journey. I found your series after being diagnosed with 2 anurysms and an AVM. I am going to have Steriotactic radiosurgery in a week. Thank again

Me diagnosticaron dos simetricos en cada hemisferio y la neuróloga acertó en que era muy probable estadisticamente encontrar otro en la arteria renal. Sin duda hay mucha ansiedad con todo esto y te deseo que te recuperes muy pronto. Un abrazo desde Andorra

Hi Melissa, following your aneurysm experience. This will make me 9 yrs living with my un ruptured aneurysm. No change in size but I have seen multiple NYC neuro surgeons who all say I should seek treatment. Embolism to be exact. I will be getting treatment in April 🤞🏼

Thank you for sharing your story.

Hi.....what were the symptoms before they found out you had an aneurysm pls?

Need help just found out am so helpless😢

You, Ma'am, are a Warrior❤

September 5th 2023, my aneurysm was fixed with a pipeline embolization device. My aneurysm was 8 mm. The device got sent through a catheter from my groin. In a year I will have another angiogram and they said there is a 95% chance it will be completely healed. Thank you to The Brain Institute for Anuerysms at Beth Isreal, Boston.

Just now seeing this video how are you doing from the anurism

I have just been diagnosed with 2 aneurysms on each side. I’m also in the Dallas area. I’m going to UTSW . I have only had one visit and I’m suppose to go back in August . They didn’t tell me the type etc. actually I didn’t get much information at all . I was just told to come back in 6 months and they will do another cat scan. They are both 4cm

Thank you for sharing your experience. It's been helpful. Bless you.

I as well am. Living with 3 un ruptured brain anyurisums

🙏 God has his loving hands on you

I have two brain aneurysms ( coiled) my neurologist told me I would live 20 more years 23 yrs ago.

Hi Melissa, how are you going?
