I had brain surgery for two unruptured brain aneurysms back in February but when they did surgery they found a third.. They clipped all three but I was left with optic nerve damage to the right eye... I suffer from headaches daily. I'm just thankful to still be alive... Recovering is hard but with a great support system it can ease alot of mixed emotions... I pray that anyone who ever has to go through this experience knows that they are not alone...
I am taking organic white oak tea from Amazon. I had the surgery on July 1st. They couldn't put the clip on it. I will have an endovascular treatment soon. Keep a healthy diet high with antioxidants. Beta carotene it's really good for the eye health, get the highest levels on pills from Amazon. Keep your blood pressure good. God is taking care of you
Jael García I’ll keep you in my prayers... I’m finally feeling like myself again. I still have headaches but not so severe....Praying that your recovery be easy for you...God Bless you!!!
@@jaelgarcia4576 My daughter had a rupture aneurysm and she had surgery but they found an AVM (arteriovenous malformation) that they need to fix it too. She's scheduled by the end of October too. I pray your surgery be a success and you get a full recovery ❤
It has been four weeks since my unruptured brain aneurysm clipping surgery, and I feel great. I did not have any issues at all. I did not have any pain, headaches, fatigue, or any other side effects. I was able to walk and do my normal activities the day after my surgery. I returned to work after three weeks. I could have returned to work two weeks after my surgery, but my doctor really wanted me to stay home for at least three weeks. My doctor told me that he has been practicing for almost 40 years and has never seen anyone recover so fast.
I was diagnosed with a cerebral aneurysm almost two years ago after having a first time seizure at the age of 53. My doctors performed a crainiotomy to clip the double feeds and it was a success! I was released five days later! I am blessed to be alive even though I have had several seizures since. I am on meds for that and will be probably for life but tht is ok because I have a life! Thanks Dr. John Johnson and the surgical team at Huntsville hospital in Alabama!
I found out February 2nd this yr that I have a 2mm×2mm cerebral aneurism .. it lays at the base of my skull. I'm so scared but dr.lang from Pittsburgh pa is a great doctor. I'll pray for us all
I too had brain surgery for an unruptured wide neck aneurysm on my communicating artery in December 2019. It was one of the most scariest times of my life! I remember having tears when they wheeled me into the OR. After everything has been said and done I am so very grateful for my Drs I had at the time! I know they will never see this post but I would like to give a humongous shout out to Dr. Kellett and Dr. Medela of Colorado Springs. I wouldn't be here if not for them! ❤️🥰❤️
Jayden Michelle I was sore around my groin area because that's where my Dr went through to get to my brain. I couldn't lift more than a gallon of milk for 2 or so weeks. And I had to most ugliest bruise for what seemed like an eternity. I had slight headaches for a couple weeks (way better than before surgery). When my Dr found my aneurysm it was almost at 6 and had grown in 4 months before surgery. It was on two major arteries one being my communicating artery. I'm so glad they found it otherwise I might not be here. Good luck! I know how scared you feel.
BTW....I had a mesh coil inserted in my aneurysm. I was a fairly new procedure in the area I was at. My Dr did extremely well. I moved later and my new Dr had only been using mesh coiling for 6 months and was impressed after an angiogram.
My aneurysm was an anterior communicating artery aneurysm and a wide neck aneurysm and was/is on two major arteries. My neurosurgeon thought the best option was a mesh coiling which a newer kind of coiling. This December will be 3 years since surgery and other than a slight headache here or there I feel great. I've had 3 angiograms (once every year on the anniversary) but now it's CT or MRI's from now on unless they see something. But I'm confident with my old Dr. He also fused bones in my neck (c-3 and c-4)
I don't have high blood pressure but had high (bad) cholesterol. I take baby aspirin and I take Lipitor. I'm allowed one hour a day of exercise. I mostly walk because I have drop foot and a bad knee on the same leg. I have gone to physical therapy for the drop foot. My therapist knows about all the other stuff so they kind of take it easy on me to an extent.
I had been diagnosed with a 5 mm Aneurysm in my brain, right behind my right eye. I had been suffering from migraine since 2012. My mom had 4 aneurysm back in 2003, one of them got burst. She survived, she got a big surgery with 3 clibs on her brain. Now she is 64 years old. And about me, my doctor advised me to clip my Aneurysm. Please pray for me! Amen!
Hi Jael, did you get your surgery? My daughter just had a surgery and she's very well she had a rupture on the artery and was 13 day on ICU but she's well thanks God!!
Hi, Yes, I had the surgery on July 1st. Had like 4 or 5 hours on the ICU. Then a narcotic room until July 2nd . Then a normal room until July 4th in the afternoon I was sent home. I got my right side of the face very swallowed along with my right eye. However, the doctor couldn't put the clip on the Aneurysm. I will have a endovascular treatment very soon. Your daughter has to keep the blood pressure good. Healthy diet. Not getting stressed. Live style changes. My mom had 4 Aneurysm when she was 46, one of them got ruptured. She spent like 35 days in the ICU. She got 3 clips on her brain. She's 64 now, she working and leaving a normal life. She's checking with doctor every 6 months. I got some organic white oak tea from Amazon, I heard it's good for Aneurysm. I started taking it like a month before surgery, then I stopped 7 days, then continued, it helps with pain and helps with surgery recovery. I am sending all my love to you and your daughter to faster recovery. 🤗
Also, If you have others children older then 20, they should get a MRA very soon. Just in case, you do treatment before it bursted. God bless you and I so glad she is good
I was diagnosed with a massive brain aneurysm in January,it's been the toughest and scariest time of my life ,I'm only just feeling myself again,I have just been for check up at royal Stoke hospital and they have said the aneurysm is fully filled in and to basically get on with a normal life again I am forever grateful to all that treated me and especially my doctor who sent me for the MRI if it wasn't for her I would not be here today xxx
So thankful that you are recovering. I'm waiting to see an nuerologist in April 2023. After speaking to my nurse practioner about feeling pressure on my right side of head, she set me up for an MRI. Yes, they found a small one. You give me encouragement that life goes on. Enjoy every day that God gives you as I will.
I am going next week to schedule my 2 # brain aneurysm surgery by clipping.My first surgery was clipping aneurysm 5 plates cranitomy.My voice still is not great and have lost all since of smell.I feel alone have not been able to speak to anyone that has or going though this surgery.My wish is to talk about this very lonely time facing another brain surgery.Thank you so much for you listen to me.
Im here...lost my smell and sense...and have a aneurism...i live in Greece and it took two years for them to find it out...im having my surgery this week...and im shit scared...
My grandmother suffered a catastrophic brain aneurysm at 38 years old, my mother suffered a ruptured aneurysm at 40 and thankfully survived. At 32 years old I had been suffering horrible headaches that seemed to appear during times of high stress and could only relieve the pain with a trip to the hospital - EVERY TIME! During one of these trips the hospital staff actually paid attention to my family history so they performed a CT the revealed what looked like 2 aneurysms...turns out it was an abnormally shaped 9mm aneurysm with a wide base, which meant coiling it was not an option. After the surgery which was beyond anything anyone could have prepared me for, my body rejected the hardware and I had to have the 4 plates and 10 screws removed. I have nerve damage because of the incisions which has left me with one crazy battle scar but I'm here to tell the story and for that I am grateful. **All of my doctors dismissed the possibility of an aneurysm because they aren't "hereditary"....but they really are, even if it's only environmental genetics...
You're very strong. Keep your high blood pressure low. And if you suffer from constipation please manage that. I will have my clipping surgery very soon. I'm 40 with family history of ruptured Aneurysm. Also I'm suffering from migraines. The MRA Detected a 5 mm Aneurysm behind my right eye. Please pray for me!
Just had my craniotomy a few days ago. I’m feeling quite fatigued. Have low bp. And blurry vision on the operated side. All of these symptoms I expected. I’m grateful to no longer be living under the threat of an aneurysm.
In 1995 I had a big almost ruptured brain aneurysm. I was extremely lucky because it was accidentally discovered and had surgery and during the procedure I surprised the team with an intensive seizure. I was 28 yo and healthy, the professor was really talented, he came back from the USA with a back then new surgery method plus I was healthy and fit so I am still here👍 In the first 5 years I went for a CT check up yearly. But I had to quit the intensive training and some other physical activity. The side effects mentally were/are more significant like PTSD, anxiety and depression. Anyway I feel so blessed and thank God I got extra decades. I was on anticonvulsant for a year but seizures never returned it was a good reminder that health is one of the most important thing. 👍
Mam I read your posts how r u doing ? Actually my mom had brain surgery 6 months ago .she is 58 and high BP patient .Also prescribed with thyroid pill after surgery. can u plz share your diet and exercise plan cause am worried about my mom. plz reply 🙏🙏
Almost 2 years ago I suffered a 33mm unruptured aneurysm. Had coiling and a shunt put in. By trade I’m an Airline Pilot and my docs are all confident I will pass my 1st class medical. I’ve done a full Cog test and killed it. I have struggled with fatigue which has lead to weight gain also.
I just found out I have a brain aneurysm and my surgery is scheduled for Nov. 2 2023. I'm trying to be upbeat for my kids and grandkids, but inside I'm scared and anxious.
I’m almost three weeks post clipping via craniotomy, I had a very small aneurysm but it needed clipping due to my family history. The whole process has been ok, I have no complications so far, please know anyone facing this can get through it….🙏🏼♥️
I had my clipping surgery four weeks ago and I was lucky and did not have any issues at all. I did not have any pain and did not have to take any pain medicine. I felt totally normal the day of my surgery. I was able to go back to work after three week!
I just had a craniotomy on Aug 2. Lost vision in my right eye and don’t know if I’ll regain it. Other than that, I’m doing great, thank God. I’m learning how to navigate life with this new right eyed blindness.
I was diagnosed with two brain aneurysms, 9mm and 6mm on each side of the brain located on the brain cavity. These were found as a result of an MRI for a prolactinoma tumour I was having monitored. The decision to do surgery was made for me given the size and location. I had my first surgery last week and they did endovascular stent. I’m recovering but very tired. I was very anxious leading into it as it isn’t a minor procedure although non invasive as compared to a craniotomy. They would not do both at the same time so my next will be in 4-6 months.
Hi Erin, I had the craniotomy on July 1st. Unfortunately the doctor couldn't clip the Aneurysm. Now they will do endovascular treatment very soon. So don't worry, I will also have both procedures. I will pray for you. Get some organic tea from Amazon called white oaks. That tea help with surgery incision to heal faster and help with the pain.
I am 49 and have been having problems controlling my blood pressure for 7 months. Over the last 3 months I have been forgetting names of people and common items like paintbrushes and other household items (a sneaky trick to get out of doing chores maybe? I live alone so, no net benefit to this game). I get very depressed and angry and have had a terrible ringing in my ears for a few weeks. An MRI showed a “possible” 4mm aneurysm in my left communicating artery. Is all of this normal? I’m not finding much support for my anxiety while waiting on my MRA.
I had one from an AVM in my brain that hemorrhaged but didn't rupture while driving a bus. Luckily, I was able to pull over. I had gamma knife February/2019 but it has left me epileptic, so my career is pretty much over as I have had six seizures this year since the gamma knife. I'm now working 10-20 hours a week at McDonalds but have had two seizures on the job. I'm going for SSI/SSDI but it's a long, hard fight. Sorry folks but there are times I wish I was never born because of this curse in my brain.
Pipeline flow diverter and coil on aneurysm July 2023 no high blood pressure no high cholesterol had stroke 3 months after due aneurysm totally gone doctor took me off blood thinners and had stroke, put back on them than 2 months later when took me off had a TIA. I’m still taking 325mg daily. I feel foggy headed, dizzy and just not my normal self. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Unruptured ICA aneurysm 3mm elected to have surgery
I also found out about mine just like Dr. Brockmeyer. My mother passed away after a week in ICU from a catastrophic rupture of aneurysm. She was 72, in great physical shape, and showed no symptoms. Her mother passed away at the age of 53 in Japan to what was called a brain hemorrhage...a ruptured aneurysm. I was tested a week following my mother's passing. I was also in the 25% that had more than one. I was 44. I owe my life to Dr. Tom Yao and the Norton Neuroscience Center of Louisville.
One of my family members had her first ruptured aneurysm at age 77 some months back and she recovered very well from surgery, like nothing ever happened. They found a second one that wasn’t posing an issue at the time but her surgeon said she could be proactive and get it taken care as soon as she recovers and feels she is able to. Well, fast forward to just a couple of days ago. She had the second surgery but it didn’t go well. A significant error was made. We are being told it doesn’t look good. I believe in miracles but naturally speaking, is there any possibility that it can be turned around and she can recover?
Hi I was just diagnois with a brain aneurysm this week I was in the hospital. I came home Thursday,I like to know were can I find a support group online? Thank you.

Mine was on the arteria carotis and was clipped in 1995.

I graduated from the University just the previous year, in 1994. I kept using my brain and I have to admit that my memory became worse, my migraines did not disappear, I am on blood pressure pills and antidepressants ... 😆 Oh it was very challenging

I’m still taking 325mg daily. I feel foggy headed, dizzy and just not my normal self. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Unruptured ICA aneurysm 3mm elected to have surgery
I also found out about mine just like Dr. Brockmeyer. My mother passed away after a week in ICU from a catastrophic rupture of aneurysm. She was 72, in great physical shape, and showed no symptoms. Her mother passed away at the age of 53 in Japan to what was called a brain hemorrhage...a ruptured aneurysm. I was tested a week following my mother's passing. I was also in the 25% that had more than one. I was 44. I owe my life to Dr. Tom Yao and the Norton Neuroscience Center of Louisville.
Who is this woman who had the aneurysm? what is her name?
music is very bad i can not hear what they said
One of my family members had her first ruptured aneurysm at age 77 some months back and she recovered very well from surgery, like nothing ever happened. They found a second one that wasn’t posing an issue at the time but her surgeon said she could be proactive and get it taken care as soon as she recovers and feels she is able to. Well, fast forward to just a couple of days ago. She had the second surgery but it didn’t go well. A significant error was made. We are being told it doesn’t look good. I believe in miracles but naturally speaking, is there any possibility that it can be turned around and she can recover?
What size was the aneurysm?
Hi I was just diagnois with a brain aneurysm this week I was in the hospital. I came home Thursday,I like to know were can I find a support group online? Thank you.

Get treated as soon as possible.
Keep your high blood pressure good.
Mine was on the arteria carotis and was clipped in 1995. I quit 🚬, I don't drink, I have to take 2 pills for my blood pressure but Jeez I'm 55 and I have never ever could imagine that I have such a long life after the surgery. I graduated from the University just the previous year, in 1994. I kept using my brain and I have to admit that my memory became worse, my migraines did not disappear, I am on blood pressure pills and antidepressants ... 😆 Oh it was very challenging
I had one that popped and then they did the coil lucky to still be here
Same here! : )
Mine ruptured and I didn't know I had one. This happened 16 years ago now. God Bless all you survivors!
God is with us
@@leeannsohrabi1790 yes he is
Did they do the coiling or clipping procedure?
How are you today...?
Everyone sounds so bleak. Mine is a 6mm unruptured ICA. I am 71 yrs old and the neurosurgeon said there is no rush in having any treatment.
