Does this happens to you?

I have 3 ruptures clipped. I have another aneurysm that could not be reached. It will rupture at anytime. I was told by the surgeon it can not be fixed. When it ruptures, I will pass out and die.

I have accepted this situation.

It has been 7 years now.

-Short term memory has gotten 95% better.
-I have received Social Security Disability. It took a free lawyer and 2 years to get my case approved
-I have to avoid all stresses and can not work because of the stresses. My blood pressure top number used to go up to 190.
-I take meds for anxiety everyday. I’m very pleased
-I exercise lightly with physical therapy
-I can drive
-I can’t do things that would raise blood pressure such as cycling, riding a rollercoaster, lift heavy objects, fly
-I nap every day.
-When I have headaches, I take Imitrex
-My spelling has been affected but is much better
-I don’t take aspirin or drink caffiene (coffee)
-I pray and practice meditation every day
-I still reach for the meaning as to why God let me live and I accept living day to day and of my passing.

I hope this helps. :heart:

Hella Vicky, blood blister-like aneurysms are a controversial entity.they arise from non branching sites on the supraclinoid internal carotid artery and are suspected to originate from a dissection.
Blister aneurysms can occur anywhere in the brain blood vessels but mostly form on the internal carotid artery and have a blister like appearance on the vessel. These aneurysms May have an increased incidence of bleeding and higher mortality rate. Hope this helps…

it has been 2 years for me. Yes that happens. Especially , the fatigue
when stressed or emotional. I also have difficulty finding my words when this occurs.My doctor states this is common and we have to continue to heal. Good luck and be patient with yourself.
