I was told this week 4/25/11, that I had an Brain Aneurysm 3mm on the base of the skull, it's good to hear the information you said about unruptred Aneurysm begin

under 5mm. My mine is at ease but I must follow-up in 6 months with a nuero Dr. Does that sound about right a follow-up in 6 months? Thank you for the informative video.

@TheKeremos Hi - I'm the editor for the channel. I did some online research for you, but could not find an answer. I'm sorry. The important thing in this matter isn't so much how you compare to the rest of the world, it's that you're taking care of your own health. It sounds like you are and I'm glad to hear it. Good health to you in the future.

@barbr316 Is it possible to live completely through brain anuerism? My finance died of one in November

My 1st S.A.H. was 7/28/02 @ age 17. My 2nd S.A.H. was 3/11/10 @ age 25. The 2nd was more severe, as they found a 3rd unruptured aneurysm & needed to perform an Aneurysm Clipping & Craniotomy. I'm blessed that despite daily headaches & meds since I was 17, I have no real deficits to complain about except superficial ones. I swore I would dedicate my life to helping others so I'm a Nurse & trying to continue my education. Good Luck & God-Bless all Survivors & my blessings to those passed.
