Hello everyone! I hope everyone has had a great November, as we start to head into December. Please help me introduce our newest members!
@Rita2 is in Tennessee, United States. Rita was recently diagnosed with an 8mm Basilar artery aneurysm with an atypical shape. She does not have a treatment plan yet. I hope Rita can find support within our community.
@Belka04 is in Pennsylvania, United States. Tatyana has a 4mm saccular aneurysm arising from the medical ophthalmic branch of the left internal carotid artery and their neurosurgeon recommends a stent. I hope our community can help make their decision about their surgery easier.
@Bigguns is in Michigan, United States. Bigguns started to become very angry all the time, almost losing his wife and job. Doctors told him nothing was wrong and didn’t believe he was experiencing massive migraines, blaming him for pill seaking. He later found he had two 8 mm front cranial aneurysms. He is looking for advice on obtaining a card for his wallet to make travelling easier. I hope he can find the answers to his questions in our community.
@Stef65 is in Pennsylvania, United States. Stefan received a CT for symptoms of a second stroke, but instead found a 4-5 mm aneurysm at the middle cerebral artery. He is working with the neurosurgeon to decide the treatment plan, and is considering an open surgery given the doctors recommendations. I hope Stefan can find support and advice in our community about his next steps.
I hope everyone is doing well and feeling supported within the community. I encourage you all to continue sharing your stories and updates as well as seeking advice and asking questions. If you have any questions about posting on the forum, please contact @moderators and we will be glad to help.
