My goodness I feel so lucky my Dr. (new Dr.) Took my symptoms serious and sent me for an MRI (MRA) asap - I've been in the ER where they just treated me for blood pressure headache and moved on..... She didn't think twice and sent me for the test.

Please check with a neurosurgeon as it's easier getting the aneurysms fixed before they rupture. I've had 3 ruptures and the last I almost dismissed as a stress headache but went to the ER. Sure enough, I had one that ruptured. It's better to be safe than sorry. Don't let them dismiss it as a migraine. It's a silent killer and early detection saves lives. GET A SECOND OPINION IF NECESSARY. You'll need an MRI, but better yet an angiogram.
